About the role

We’re hiring a Staff Design Program Manager to own the operational foundation that powers Etsy’s Seller Experience.

What they're looking for

  • 8+ years in program management, design operations, or a related field within a product development environment

  • Experience spanning multiple design teams or sub-groups simultaneously, with the ability to hold coherence across different priorities and working styles
  • Deep familiarity with how design teams plan and ship work, including how design intersects with Product, Engineering, and Research across the product development lifecycle
  • Strong data instincts: you can identify what is worth measuring, build systems to track it, and translate what you find into recommendations that help leaders make better decisions
  • Experience with vendor evaluation, tool selection, and contract management for design teams
