Product Manager

Product Manager

Mockingbird's product portfolio has grown significantly since we launched, and so has the work required to bring new products and line extensions to life thoughtfully and well. This role is an expansion of our Product Management capabilities — ensuring that every product we build reflects the quality and care Mockingbird is known for.

As a Product Manager here, you'll own the full lifecycle of your assigned portfolio from the earliest concept through launch and into sunset. You're the product owner on every active program you carry, the central decision point, and the person who makes sure what gets delivered matches what was agreed. You'll work closely with marketing, supply chain, engineering, and industrial design to bring products to life in a way that serves both the business and the families buying our gear.

Specifically, your responsibilities in this role would include:

• Own the complete product lifecycle for your portfolio — across both hero products and accessories — leading new products and line extensions through our Product Development Process, from concept and discovery kickoff through launch and into sunsetting.
• Be the deepest expert on the families who use your products — synthesizing reviews, CX tickets, surveys, in-home research, and social listening into insights that sharpen briefs and decisions throughout development.
• Contribute to forward-looking NPI roadmap planning for your portfolio — synthesizing market trends, customer insights, and portfolio performance data to inform opportunity sizing feasibility.
• Write and maintain PRDs for your products, serving as the accountability point for ensuring the delivered product matches what was defined.
• Work directly with engineers, industrial designers, and suppliers to translate product vision into executable specs, surfacing tradeoffs and making recommendations when what's ideal and what's possible aren't the same thing.
• Act as the central decision hub on active programs, making sure every meaningful decision flows through you and the right stakeholders are informed along the way.
• Visit suppliers in market — including international travel to manufacturing partners, typically in Asia, roughly 3–4 times per year — to ensure product quality and fidelity to the vision, and serve as the on-the-ground voice for the product.
• Partner with product marketing across the full commercial arc — from positioning, value propositions, claims, and product briefs through packaging and collateral execution, translating creative direction into specifications that are feasible given cost and production constraints.
• Partner with and manage external contractors and freelancers as needed to support product development workstreams, providing clear direction, maintaining accountability to deliverables, and ensuring work aligns with product vision and quality standards.
• Track how your portfolio is performing in market — sales, reviews, returns, customer feedback, accessory attach rates — and surface what we should evolve, fix, or double down on next.
• Collaborate with your PM counterpart and Product Development Program Manager partners on portfolio-level prioritization and process improvements that lift the bar for both portfolios.

We know that not every great candidate will check every single box in a job description. We encourage you to apply even if you don't meet every listed qualification. At Mockingbird, we believe the strongest teams are built by bringing together people with different backgrounds, experiences, and ways of thinking.

We're a certified Great Place to Work, a Fortune Best Workplace in New York, and a Fortune Best Small Workplace in the US! Through an anonymous, third-party survey, 100% of our employees said Mockingbird is a great place to work.

We're a fully remote company which means you get to work where you want (within the United States) during the hours that make the most sense for you and your family. We deeply value and encourage work/life balance.

Despite working remotely, we prioritize building camaraderie across the company and having fun together. We hold monthly company social events, optional monthly 1:1 coffee chats, and in-person company retreats. We never miss a chance to celebrate birthdays, work-a-versaries, and every other life milestone.

You'll be empowered to truly make an impact on our business and on Mockingbird families. We've fostered a culture that promotes healthy debate and prioritization of the best ideas, rather than hierarchy and ego.
