Remote Job
Principal Product Manager
Abstract- full_time
- Posted : 4 years ago
About the Role:
At Abstract, we believe in a future where all companies recognize that empowering people to be creative unlocks productivity. We seek to build a world where companies see the expertise in their people, where systems default to collaboration, and where curiosity and experimentation flourish.
To deliver on that vision, we’re looking for a Principal Product Manager who is committed to making design more measurable and therefore impactful. This role will be responsible for launching a new line of business to address that need. The ideal candidate can create order from ambiguity and is passionate about each phase of the product development lifecycle - from research and opportunity sizing all of the way through to general launch.
What You'll Do:
- Internalize our existing strategy and use that to create a new line of business.
- Establish and reinforce processes while providing mentorship to fellow members of the product team.
- Deeply know the problems that you’re tackling through research and regular interaction with customers and influence the roadmap to reflect that understanding
- Coordinate and gather feedback from relevant stakeholders and synthesize that into a plan so your team is always working on the most impactful projects
- Scope these solutions to their smallest coherent state to ship to customers as early as you can
- Constantly evaluate if your solutions have solved the problem through quantitative and qualitative measures, both in early access and after full release.
- Execute with excellence and motivate a group of committed, smart people to do the best work of their careers
What You'll Bring:
- 6+ years of experience in a Product Manager role and experience starting a new line of business.
- Understanding of the technical architecture of complex web and desktop applications.
- Deep understanding of design, be able to think deeply about product design decisions and have an understanding of how to create simple user interfaces
- You thrive in fast-paced environments, often while wearing multiple hats
- You write effectively, concisely, and are able to influence others with words
- You are a clear communicator of product decisions and the rationale behind them.
- You are comfortable making decisions without consensus.
- You have experience working with both qualitative customer insights, and quantitative customer data to inform decisions.
- You’re entrepreneurial; you don’t need direction; you're self-driven.
- You’re organized, not ad hoc.
- You are able to easily switch between thinking creatively and analytically.
