About the TeamAI has made it possible to build almost anything. The constraint on great software is no longer engineering capacity, its judgment about what’s actually worth building. Product Managers at Mixpanel build products that help customers answer that question, and they dig deep into customer problems to answer it themselves.

Mixpanel’s Product Managers operate with high ownership and trust. As a team, we focus on helping every builder, not just the ones with a statistics background, get real answers out of messy product data and make the judgment calls that separate delightful products from bloated ones.

We’re also our own best customer. The team uses Mixpanel every day to build Mixpanel: testing our own product intuitions against our own data and catching what works and what doesn’t before our users ever see it.
