In this role, you will be responsible for defining and driving the strategy and roadmap for sharing across web, mobile, and desktop surfaces. Your impact areas include simplifying complex sharing flows, balancing intuitive default experiences with advanced capabilities, planning and forecasting multi-quarter initiatives, measuring the effectiveness of sharing and virality through rigorous metrics and experimentation, driving cross-functional execution across multiple teams, and evaluating product and business tradeoffs to deliver meaningful customer and company value.

You will play a critical part in shaping how millions of users collaborate and share content every week, while directly influencing Dropbox’s growth, retention, and revenue. You’ll get substantial senior leadership exposure, significant ownership and autonomy over a high-visibility product area, and the opportunity to solve deeply complex problems at scale while delivering experiences that users understand, trust, and love.

  • Simplify complex sharing flows, striking the right balance between intuitive default experiences and advanced capabilities for power users.
  • Partner closely with engineering, design, data science, research, and cross-product leaders to deliver high-quality, scalable solutions.
  • Make high-impact, independent product decisions while aligning closely with senior leadership and executives on critical tradeoffs.
  • Communicate clearly and persuasively with stakeholders, including presenting defensible product perspectives to the executive team.
Requirements
  • 8–10+ years of experience as a Product Manager, with ownership of complex, user-facing systems at scale.
  • Strong systems thinking and technical proficiency, with the ability to work closely with engineering teams on complex architectures.
  • Deep experience using data, metrics, and experimentation to inform product decisions and drive outcomes.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead large cross-functional teams and to set strategy across organizational boundaries.
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, including executive-level storytelling and alignment.
  • Strong customer focus, with a track record of delivering simple, intuitive experiences in complex domains.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Prior experience working on sharing, permissions, access control.
  • Experience designing and optimizing virality loops or network effects in large-scale products.
  • Background in trust & safety or permissions-heavy domains.
  • Track record of leading long-running, multi-quarter initiatives with significant cross-team dependencies.
