  • Be flexible -- we’re a fast moving business and changes in the organization and priorities are inevitable.
  • Mentor and guide a more junior PM to help them achieve their own career goals while also helping drive the team’s goals.
  • Be positive under pressure. (And thrive working in a fast-paced environment with deadlines).

Requirements:

  • 7+ years of Technical Product Management experience in an agile environment.

  • You are a great communicator, detail oriented, and a great cross-collaborator when working with other departments within the company.
  • You have strong stakeholder management skills and aren’t intimidated to stand up for what is in the best interest of the product / your team.
