Vroom is an exciting, dynamic workplace, and there's no better time to join the team than right now.
We are currently seeking a Senior Product Manager to lead Vroom’s demand generation effort, working alongside a talented team of designers, developers and data scientists. This is an exciting opportunity to join a growing company, make a big impact, and help us scale Vroom’s business.

- Effective collaboration comes naturally to you, as well as alignment with a team of engineers, designers and analysts, both within your functional team and with cross-functional teams
- You are able to blaze a trail or go with the flow; you are comfortable adapting and helping your team adapt when priorities shift
- You believe in the power of experimentation and are comfortable experimenting (and sometimes failing along the way) to achieve your goals - ambiguity is not a concern to you
- Bar raisers. Our team wants to be challenged and is looking for a PM to partner with them figuring out how to achieve goals faster and better
- We believe good product managers seek to understand the customer’s perspective and challenges and evangelize the customer’s needs in all decisions
- You are business-savvy; you get excited about new business opportunities and how you can help make them a reality
You also:
- Are an experienced product manager with a passion for technology - the person in this role is not just concerned about what we build, but how we build it
- Have digital experience in or related to product, and specifically 6+ years of product management experience
- Understand technical infrastructure and vision, and where you do not understand, you are not afraid to ask questions and seek to understand
- Have demonstrated ability to take high-level technical concepts and break them down into prioritized roadmaps and plans in partnership with engineering
- Are proficient at understanding data flow and data structure to power analytics and are competent at collecting, interpreting, and creating actionable insights from datasets
- Have demonstrated experience managing complex software and process development to achieve business objectives, particularly Agile development methodologies
- Relate well to colleagues in different areas of expertise; able both to direct and to influence others
- Solicit feedback and reflect on your own behavior and performance
- Are willing to travel to Detroit up to 20% of the time
And major bonus points for:
- Your ability to adapt communication style to audience: varying levels of seniority, disciplines, locations, and personality types
- Experience working at a startup
- Experience with AB testing
Benefits
This full-time role offers competitive compensation; health, dental, and vision insurance; a 401k plan; fully company-paid short term disability, long term disability, and life insurance; access to a healthcare concierge service with virtual visits; and 15 annualized days of paid vacation.
But our biggest benefit is being part of a low-ego, high performing team that's transforming the used car market into a modern, online and data-driven industry. We are looking for people who want to be a part of a contemporary startup culture. What gets us out of bed is working with talented people on a mission that matter
