Senior Product Manager

We are seeking a highly customer-obsessed, strategic, and execution-driven Senior Product Manager to own key product areas across Workstream's platform, with a particular focus on our hiring products and experiences.

In this role, you will define your product area's strategy, roadmap, and long-term vision—owning everything from customer discovery and hypothesis development to execution, iteration, and measurable business outcomes. You will be responsible for shaping the product story, defining success metrics, and driving investments that improve how hourly businesses attract, hire, and retain their workforce.

This role is ideal for someone who has deep experience in hiring, recruiting, or talent technology and thrives in fast-paced startup environments. You should love spending time with customers and users and be equally comfortable thinking strategically and diving into the details to get products shipped.

You will work cross-functionally across Engineering, Design, Sales, Customer Success, Business Development, and Leadership to identify opportunities, prioritize resources, and bring impactful products to market.

• Own product strategy, roadmap, and execution for a core Workstream product area, with a focus on hiring and recruiting experiences.
• Define product vision, north star metrics, and success criteria aligned with company priorities.
• Spend significant time with customers, candidates, recruiters, hiring managers, and customer-facing teams to identify patterns, pain points, and emerging market opportunities.
• Leverage your experience in recruiting and hiring workflows to identify opportunities to make hiring more efficient, effective, and scalable for hourly businesses.
• Partner closely with Sales, Customer Success, Business Development, and Operations to gather business requirements and translate them into scalable product solutions.
• Build and manage relationships with strategic external partners, including job boards, recruiting platforms, integrations, and other ecosystem partners.
• Conduct market, competitive, and customer research to develop and validate product hypotheses.
• Take a hypothesis-driven, experimentation-first approach to product discovery and iteration.
• Write detailed product specifications, user stories, and UX requirements that enable high-quality execution.
• Collaborate closely with Engineering and Design teams to ship products quickly while balancing speed, quality, and long-term scalability.
• Be highly resourceful and pragmatic in solving customer problems—whether through automation, integrations, operational workflows, or lightweight solutions.
• Drive alignment across Product, Engineering, Design, GTM, and executive stakeholders.
• Present product strategy, roadmap progress, customer insights, and business impact across all levels of the organization.
• Use AI and emerging technologies to accelerate product discovery, development, and execution.

• 5–7+ years of Product Management experience, ideally in SaaS, growth, marketplace, or startup environments.
• Deep experience in hiring, recruiting, talent acquisition, or recruiting technology is required.
• Strong understanding of the recruiting and hiring lifecycle, including candidate acquisition, job distribution, applicant tracking, screening, interviewing, hiring workflows, and/or onboarding.
• Proven track record of owning product initiatives from concept through launch (0→1) and iteration (1→N), incorporating both Go-To-Market and PLG motions.
• Experience utilizing AI to make yourself and your team more effective.
• Strong understanding of the AI landscape and emerging AI tools and applications.
• Experience working in a fast-paced, scaling startup, typically under 500 employees, or demonstrated ability to thrive in high-growth environments.
• Strong customer empathy and genuine enthusiasm for talking directly with users and customers.
• Excellent analytical, strategic, and hypothesis-driven problem-solving skills.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills with the ability to influence cross-functional stakeholders.
• Strong partnership skills across Engineering, Design, Sales, Customer Success, Marketing, and Operations.
• Ability to move quickly, prioritize effectively, and operate with resourcefulness in ambiguous environments.
• Experience writing product specs, user stories, and translating business needs into product execution.
• Comfortable balancing strategic thinking with hands-on execution and operating at both the 10,000-foot and 10-foot levels.

• Experience building products for hourly workers, restaurants, retail, hospitality, or other frontline industries.
• Experience with HR tech, payroll, scheduling, workforce management, or local business software.
• Familiarity with job board ecosystems, recruiting integrations, or external platform partnerships.
• Experience with AI-powered recruiting or hiring products.
• Experience working with offshore or distributed engineering teams.
• Experience with growth product management or marketplace products.
• Experience with one or more of the following product categories: ATS, HRIS, Payroll, Scheduling, Time & Attendance, or Workforce Management.

• We operate with urgency, ownership, and a growth mindset.
• This is not a traditional 9-to-5 role—we value accountability, flexibility, and getting results.
• If you thrive in high-growth environments and are passionate about building from scratch, we'd love to connect.
• Must be willing to report to the office up to 5 days a week.
