What they're looking for

  • 10+ years of product management or similar experience, including 4+ years managing and developing product managers (including senior PMs)

  • Proven track record leading multi-quarter initiatives and delivering impactful products measured by hard business outcomes (e.g., cost, speed, quality)
  • Strong technical fluency with ML- and algorithms-driven products, comfortable working through complex technical tradeoffs alongside engineering and ML leaders
  • Excellent written and verbal communication, able to influence executive leadership and align cross-functional teams in a complex domain
  • Demonstrated ability to hire, develop, and retain high-performing PMs and build healthy, high-trust teams
