These could include but are not limited to driving innovations around helping customers select the right engagement types, driving efficiencies in the offer process, building trust and value, and enabling continuous engagement.

This role offers an exciting opportunity for someone who is passionate about understanding our customers' needs deeply and enjoys finding creative solutions that will truly exceed their expectations.

Your Responsibilities:

  • Develop a product strategy that integrates customer research and market analysis to identify features/initiatives that will deliver strong business outcomes
  • Build consensus on the product roadmap strategy and priorities across peer, cross-functional teams and leadership
  • Partner with design and engineering to develop and execute against a data-backed roadmap while making trade-offs between features and speed to market
  • Collaborate with analytics to define and analyze success metrics for product features and initiatives

What it takes to catch our eye:

  • Proven experience in developing a roadmap and strategy that is backed by a thorough understanding of the customer's needs and the available market solutions.
  • Excellent communication skills with a proven track record to influence your peers and leadership
  • The ability to go broad as well as deep: solving for the bigger picture and long term goals whilst rolling up your sleeves and jumping in when needed
  • Demonstrated ability to make data-driven decisions 
  • Experience working as a Sr. Product Manager in a fast-paced environment

How to really knock our socks off:

  • Drive and willingness to go above and beyond with a strong work ethic
  • Ability to play well with others on your team through collaboration and sharing of best practices
