Pocket Prep

Product Manager

• Own the customer journey outcome. Drive free-to-paid conversion, activation rate, and post-exam re-engagement as your north star metrics.
• Reduce product friction. Analyze user behavior to identify where there is friction and drop off, and run experiments with your product trio to fix it.
• Build and test retention features. Design, ship, and iterate on features that build lasting study habits.
• Run a continuous discovery practice. Conduct ongoing customer interviews and assumption tests to stay close to user needs and validate ideas before building.
• Manage the full product lifecycle. Lead the project team and processes from opportunity identification through shaping, development, release, and post-launch analysis.
• Report on growth KPIs. Track and communicate squad metrics to the team and leadership; identify what's working and what isn't.
• Collaborate cross-functionally. Partner with engineering, design, marketing, and customer support to deliver cohesive experiences.

Senior Growth Product Manager

Product Designer

• Lead small-scale design projects with support and guidance from the design team, while collaborating with product managers and engineers throughout the product development lifecycle.
• Clarify user flows and explore multiple solutions through lo-fidelity wireframes to help the team narrow down to the best solution to move forward with.
• Develop hi-fidelity visual designs in Figma, using our design library to maintain consistency — use of color, layout, hierarchy, state design, and considering actual content or data are all important — resulting in mockups that engineers can build from.
• Communicate designs clearly to engineers and review their work during development. (We call this VQA, visual quality assurance.)
• Support Product Designers on larger, more complex initiatives by taking on scoped tasks. Examples include pulling precedent research, pulling relevant user research, or creating Figma components or variants.
• Contribute to and help maintain our design library. This helps maintain consistency and quality for our users and makes us more efficient internally.
• Learn about our users' journey, their pain points, and product opportunities by watching user interviews and reviewing survey data. You will have opportunities to build your design research skills.
• Observe how a product trio (product squad) operates at Pocket Prep. Product squads have a Product Manager, a Designer, and a Developer who collaborate closely to identify solutions that drive towards our business outcomes. You'll have opportunities to support the squad you observe.
• Participate in design jams — sharing work in progress and giving feedback to the design team.

• Work within a product squad — a Product Manager, Designer, and Engineer collaborating closely to understand the problem space, explore solutions, and drive toward outcomes that bring value to users and the business.
• Lead, participate in, and share user research, including interviews, usability testing, and survey data, to ground design decisions in real user needs.
• Consult product analytics (Amplitude) regularly to understand how users interact with our product, inform design decisions, and assess the impact of design changes post-launch.
• Create wireframes and hi-fidelity designs in Figma, contributing to and maintaining our design library for consistency and quality across the product.
• Advocate for design across the company by promoting best practices and communicating the value of design in how you conduct and share your work.
