Requirements

We are seeking an exceptional Product Manager to join the Recommendations team who can dive deep into engineering to understand technical challenges and constraints; work with sales to understand prospective customer’s pain points; and coordinate ideal messaging with marketing -- all while maintaining focus on our customers.

This person will be as talented at communication as they are at analysis and user discovery. Recognizing that a product manager is more effective at leading through persuasion than decree, this individual is an expert in artful communication across functional roles, teams, and personalities to influence company trajectory.

• Work to support major new customer onboarding where necessary.
• Perform competitive research and analysis, and regularly report it back to the team.
• Research market trends, and make sure we're planning for where the market will be in a few years, not just today.
• Drive product definition, strategy, long long-term vision and you have the autonomy to go after the largest opportunities, regardless of where they fall within the user journey.
• Define opportunities for Recommendations to drive delightful shopping experiences that drive lifts in Retailer business metrics.

You would be a good fit if:

• You have 2 years of experience leading the definition and delivery of products/features/projects that have a high degree of cross-functional complexity and integration.
