Work Structure & Location
Candidates must live within a commutable distance to one of our primary office hubs and be available for regular in-office collaboration according to team needs. When you are not working on-site, you will be working from your home office.
We are only considering candidates within a commutable distance to one of these specific hubs and are not offering relocation assistance at this time.
Drive Data-Led Prioritization: Manage the growth backlog, prioritizing initiatives strictly based on estimated ROI, business impact, and statistical significance over subjective opinions.
Partner deeply with UX Design, Engineering, Product Marketing, and Performance Marketing to build seamless, low-friction user journeys across channels.
Deepen Data Analytics: Work hand-in-hand with Data Science and Analytics to uncover conversion bottlenecks, map user behavior trends, and build robust funnel dashboards.
Focus on building growth hooks that deliver clear, immediate customer value, ensuring long-term user retention and earned renewals.
Experience: 8+ years of experience in product management, with at least 5 years of dedicated experience in Growth Product Management (ideally within B2C/D2C SaaS, digital subscriptions, or high-volume consumer tech).
A demonstrated history of driving material business outcomes—you can clearly articulate how your past experiments moved the needle on acquisition, trial-to-paid conversion, or ARR.
Experimentation Expert: Deep familiarity with modern growth stacks, analytics platforms (e.g., Amplitude, Mixpanel, Optimizely), and statistical concepts required for accurate A/B test analysis.
Intensely focused on business metrics and user behavior rather than just shipping features; Customer-Centric Growth: Strong empathy for the user; you look for growth opportunities by reducing friction and solving user problems, not through dark patterns or artificial friction.
Leadership & Influence: Exceptional communication skills with the ability to distill complex data insights into clear, business-oriented, board-friendly narratives and present confidently to executive stakeholders.
Autonomy & Grit: Comfortable operating with a high degree of ambiguity, making independent decisions quickly based on data, and adapting strategies as fast as market data dictates.
Understanding of cybersecurity, online privacy, or device utility software is a plus, but a world-class growth mindset is the priority.
