About the role: 

Are you a user-centric product manager who wants to make an impact at one of Seattle’s most successful startups? OfferUp is seeking a Senior Product Manager for its Consumer team.

In this role, you will be responsible for driving our messaging platform strategy from push and in-app notifications to chat messaging, enabling transactions between buyers and sellers on OfferUp’s world-class local peer-to-peer marketplace. Our messaging system is critical for our users to successfully transact on our platform: reliability, ease of use and efficiency will be top of mind for a successful product manager in this space. Notifications are as important in instrumenting growth loops that help our users find more efficiently what they are looking for, and discover things they might not know were available on our platform. Working closely with Engineering and Marketing teams, you will help enable easy and safe local transactions for millions of OfferUp users. You will work hand-in-hand with a talented team of developers, with responsibility for developing a roadmap, launching and optimizing product features, prioritizing a product backlog, and balancing quick wins with bigger bets through iterative features and experimentation.

Here’s more of what you will get to do:

• Lead one or more engineering development teams tackling multi-faceted product development initiatives
• Guide generation of end-to-end feature requirements through collaboration with analysts, designers, data scientists, engineers, sales, support, marketing, and business leadership
• Work collaboratively with the Director of Consumer Product Management to ensure the features you implement help solve larger strategic problems.
• Use sound judgment to evaluate multiple tradeoffs, competing priorities, and business or technical constraints.
• Influence cross-functional leaders with contributions to discussions and decisions.

You’ll thrive in this role if you are:

• A product management with 5+ years of industry experience. 
• A motivated, data-driven critical thinker and problem solver with a strong bias for action. 
• Results-driven, with a proven track record of significantly impacting key product metrics, such as Daily/Weekly/Monthly Active users, Transaction Rate, Visits Frequency, Retention, and User Satisfaction (NPS, CSAT)
• An excellent communicator able to effectively explain the value proposition of deliverables and the rationale behind their prioritization.
• Consistently curious and user-centric, always seeking to understand our marketplace, our users, our competition, and our opportunities better.
• An agile development expert with a proven track record of effective delivery in a fast-paced organization.
• An experienced team leader able to break down opportunities into key objectives and metrics, track team progress, and always ensure we deliver value.
• An experienced practitioner of statistical experimentation frameworks and analysis.
• Able to write effective business and technical requirements, including epics, features, user stories, and acceptance criteria.
• A strong developer of cross-functional partnerships across Engineering, Product, Design, Analytics, and other stakeholder teams.

 Helpful, but not required:

• Experience managing growth loops leveraging push and in-app notification tactics
• Expertise with messaging apps or features
• Familiarity with best-in-class checkout and conversion frameworks and concepts
• Experience working closely with Marketing
