Is This Role For You?

For You If
  • You have 5-8+ years of product management experience at a high-scale B2C or B2B2C platform with proven impact on acquisition, growth, or retention metrics
  • You're a data-driven operator who moves fast—you can analyze funnels, design experiments, and iterate at velocity without analysis paralysis
  • You thrive in cross-functional environments and can influence without direct authority (marketing, BD, sales, editorial, executives all report to you in matrix)
  • You have a growth mindset and genuine curiosity about user behavior, competitive dynamics, and product opportunities—you ask good questions and dig into data
  • You're comfortable with high visibility and accountability; you can communicate product vision to C-suite and drive execution with rigor
Won't Work If
  • You prefer stability and predictability; this role is high-impact, high-visibility, and requires fast iteration, experimentation, and comfort with ambiguity
  • You're looking for remote-first or fully remote; this is hybrid with in-office expectations in Mountain View/SF on select days
  • You lack hands-on experience with product analytics, experimentation, and data-driven decision-making—or you prefer strategy over execution
  • You have limited cross-functional collaboration experience or struggle with influence in matrix organizations
