About the role
- You'll work on a variety of projects, including complex content and ecommerce sites, but most importantly custom software products.
- You'll facilitate product design sprints, define and prioritize requirements, collaborate with our brilliant designers and developers to design and build products, lead quality assurance, and celebrate launches.
- Product Managers are experts in building digital products. They work collaboratively with clients (often startups) to understand organization goals, define solutions, answer hard questions, and ensure the overall quality of a product.
- They facilitate product planning and discovery, lead requirements gathering and feature definition, oversee technical delivery (working closely with our engineers), and conduct QA. They have a technical acumen and effectively collaborate with both internal teams and clients on technical matters.
Requirements
- You have worked in a fast-paced software development environment before, either at an agency or product company, though agency experience is preferred.
- You know how the web works and how a web app works, which means you’re aware of technical constraints when talking to clients. You don’t hesitate to ask a lot of questions in order to define the functionality of what we’re building.
- You can break down a set of wireframes into actionable tasks for back-end and front-end developers. You’re passionate about finding innovative, efficient, and effective ways to document those tasks.
- You can shepherd often-vague client requests and ideas through the definition process. You know when to rely on a product designer, but you’re comfortable thinking through logic and creating useful documentation of that logic.
- You’re able to describe workflows and tasks purely from an end user’s perspective, helping developers make informed implementation decisions.
- You’ve performed QA. You can distinguish a bug from a functional update from a new feature request. You don’t write merely good bug reports. You write better bug reports – or, at least, that’s your goal each and every time.
- You have 2 to 10 years of professional experience in a product management role, ideally within an agency.
Benefits
- Annual base salary of $70,000 - $90,000 (mid level) or $90,000 to $120,000 (senior) per year depending on skills and experience
- Additional comp available via spot performance bonuses, sales referrals, and new hire referrals
- 401(k) retirement plan matching up to 4%
- 100% company-paid health and dental coverage for you and your family
- Stipends for wellness (apps, gyms, etc.) and connectivity (mobile phone or home internet)
- 15 days PTO (20 after 2 years), 9 paid holidays, and 2 community service days per year
- Up to $2,000/year in conference and training (professional development) budget
