Role summary

The Associate Product Manager will support engineering, design, and operations by driving product prioritization, writing clear product specifications, and ensuring high product quality. This execution-heavy role requires strong organizational and analytical skills for shipping products in a fast-paced environment.

The ideal candidate will have 1-3 years of product management or related experience, basic technical literacy, and comfort with data analysis.

What You’ll Do

You’ll support engineering, design, and operations by driving prioritization, writing clear product specs, and ensuring high product quality. This role is execution-heavy and ideal for someone organized, analytical, and comfortable shipping product in a fast-moving environment.

  • Create clear, structured PRDs, feature specs, user stories, and acceptance criteria in Notion/Linear.
  • Maintain and organize product documentation and decision records across tools.
  • Translate business needs into well-defined requirements with rationale and tradeoffs.
  • Sequence roadmap work based on impact, complexity, and dependencies; support sprint planning.
  • Partner with senior PMs and leadership to run lightweight prioritization and planning processes.
  • Hold engineering to a high standard of functional, visual, and experiential quality.
  • Review builds before release and validate functionality against requirements.
  • Coordinate QA efforts, run checklists, and track defect resolution.
  • Use SQL and BI tools to analyze product performance and user behavior; track adoption, retention, and quality metrics.
  • Synthesize insights from analytics, user feedback, and coach (customer) conversations.
  • Support discovery work: conduct light user interviews, research, and competitive scans.
  • Communicate status and drive alignment across engineering, design, operations, and customer-facing teams.

What You’ll Bring

  • 1–3 years of product management or product-adjacent experience (associate PM, product ops, business ops, data/analytics).
  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience.
  • Strong writing and documentation skills; ability to structure ambiguous problems and produce crisp specs and PRDs.
  • Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and follow-through.
  • Comfort with data: SQL basics, dashboards, and analytical thinking.
  • Experience working with engineering teams and basic technical literacy (APIs, architecture concepts).
  • Clear communicator who builds trust across functions.
  • High personal bar for product quality, polish, and user experience.
  • Experience with tools like Notion, Linear, Figma (or similar) is a plus.

Bonus Skills (Nice-to-Have)

  • Prior experience in consumer apps, wellness, fitness, or creator/creator-economy products.
  • Startup experience (rapid iteration, small cross-functional teams).
  • Light design literacy (Figma) or deeper technical literacy (APIs, system architecture).
  • Experience coordinating QA, test plans, or release processes.

Location & Compensation

  • Remote — candidates based in the US, Canada, or Western Europe preferred; must be open to significant overlap with US Pacific Time working hours.
  • Salary range: $80,000 — $120,000 USD per year plus equity. Actual compensation may vary based on location, experience, and applicable local laws.
