- Define and communicate a clear product direction, from current A/B testing capabilities to broader testing use cases over time.
- Partner closely with Engineering, Data, and Product teams to shape features, requirements, and implementation plans.
- Translate user needs and ambiguous asks into clear product requirements and well-scoped initiatives.
- Define success metrics, drive adoption, and continuously improve the platform through data and partner feedback.
- Improve experiment setup, execution, monitoring, analysis, and decision-making workflows across the platform.
Please apply if you have
4+ years of experience in product management, technical product management, or platform product management within a technology environment — equivalent experience, training, or transferable skills are considered.
Strong knowledge of experimentation methodologies, including A/B testing concepts, statistical foundations (significance, power, confidence intervals, multiple comparisons, and sequential testing), trade-offs, and common pitfalls.
Experience owning complex products or platforms with multiple collaborators and technical dependencies.
Strong product and project management skills, including roadmap definition, prioritization, and cross-functional execution.
Comfort working with engineers and data practitioners on technically complex topics.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex concepts clearly to technical and non-technical audiences.
High ownership, sound judgment, strong analytical skills, and the ability to influence senior leaders without direct authority.
Experience reading and writing SQL.
Bonus points (not required)
Hands-on familiarity with the statistics underpinning experimentation — power and sample-size planning, confidence intervals, multiple testing / false discovery, and sequential or group-sequential analysis.
