You will think big picture about our business goals and how we achieve them through change and experimentation. You will use strong analytical sense to evaluate ideas and dissect problems.

• Superb communication skills - You must be able to cultivate strong working relationships, communicate effectively, write meticulously, and give outstanding presentations.
• Interest in data-informed decision-making, and ability to problem-solve with and without perfect metrics.

• Arrive earnest, mature, and ego-free. We welcome open, candid feedback, and expect every teammate to invest in bettering themselves and the group.
• At least 7-10 years of experience as a senior level product manager or senior level digital producer leading significant cross-organizational projects.
• A college degree or equivalent background required, MBA a plus.
