Teachable is looking to expand our product team and bring on a Technical Project manager! We’re a small, tight-knit team of smart people who like to get a lot done with minimal overhead.

The Role

As our first Technical Project Manager, you will be tasked with leading collaboration between various teams to drive technical solutions on a product that impacts thousands of instructors and millions of students. Working across teams but interfacing closest with engineering, you will work proactively to improve our development and internal processes around bug prioritization, internal tool building, and documentation. Over time, you’ll have the opportunity to further define the boundaries of your role and be uniquely situated to fundamentally impact our product and processes.

Responsibilities

As a member of the Product team, you will work closely with Engineering, Customer Operations, and Finance teams to:

• Manage, maintain, and improve our bug triage and prioritization processes.
• Oversee the delivery of cross-team compliance projects (as an example, the collection of W-9 forms from the thousands of instructors making money on our platform).
• Optimize the efficiency of Teachable’s staff by helping us build better internal tools.
• Improve the health and usage of our project management tools.
• Drive internal documentation efforts by identifying recurring actions.

This is an extremely important role to the company and involves a rare combination of humility, flexibility, and agility.

Requirements

• 2+ years of relevant agile project management experience, preferably at a Series A or above SaaS startup company.
• Experience with project management tools such as Trello, Asana, JIRA and/or GitHub.
• Basic understanding of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and/or other programming languages.
• Strong analytical, problem solving, and planning abilities.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Ability to work well with ambiguity in a fast-paced environment.
• Willingness to wear multiple hats and go beyond your own role.
