  • You'll utilize balanced judgment in decisions about risks of both actions taken and not taken while innovating on ways to iterate faster in a well-managed way for the immediate team

• Technology Driven

• Interaction with Engineers and understand the technical language to articulate the requirements
• Drive the product management practice within the organization, defining expectations and commitments
• Operationalizing product metrics for the products you own and building the business case for new investment
• Influencing senior stakeholders to use our products and sharing with them the outcomes we are enabling to strengthen investment

We want you if you are:

• Intellectually Curious . You ask why, you explore, you're not afraid to blurt out your crazy idea or follow an email chain for weeks to find someone with an answer. Comfortable with ambiguity, a hunger to learn and a seeker of new challenges.
• Communicator & Influencer. You can communicate complex ideas clearly regardless of your audience. Our team knows their priorities and why they're doing what they're doing. You always can rally associates to work with you.
• Do-er. You're biased toward action, you try things and sometimes you fail. You can get around roadblocks and stay focused on your goals. You're well organized, able to multitask and able to prioritize your work.
• Passionate & Customer Focus . You care about growing others and bringing them together around what's possible. You get a thrill from the journey of building and shipping products, and you have a desire and ability to connect with our external or internal customers to fully understand their needs.
• Learner. You have an appetite to learn new things or new technologies all while exhibiting humbleness when the time comes to ask for help.
• Team Player. You enjoy working with diverse people and driving the team toward a common goal. You have the ability to put the team before yourself and establish long-lasting relationships.
