Senior Product Manager (m/f/d) Catalog & Content

Berlin
expondo GmbH

AREA OF RESPONSIBILITY 

  • Content management (e.g. landing pages, blog articles, digital assets) 
  • Product information management (e.g. product details, pricing, availability, manuals) 
  • Product launch operations (the workflow for products being added to the portfolio & distributed to all mediums e.g. our own shops, marketplaces like Amazon & others) 



ABOUT THE ROLE 

We empower our product teams to solve hard problems – customer problems and business problems – in ways that our customers love, yet work for our business. Our product teams are cross-functional and durable, generally comprised of a product manager, a product designer, and several engineers. 

 

We staff our product teams with the skills necessary to come up with effective solutions that are: 

  • Valuable  – our customers choose to buy or use it 
  • Viable  –  the solution works within the many constraints of the business 
  • Usable  – the user can figure out how to use it 
  • Feasible  –  our engineers have the skills and technology to implement 

 

While the product designer is accountable for ensuring the solution is usable, and the engineers are accountable for ensuring the solution is feasible, the product manager is accountable for ensuring the solution is both valuable and viable.  

 

This means that the product manager must contribute to her product team: 

  • Deep knowledge of the various constraints of the business – from marketing, sales, service, finance, legal, and privacy are typical examples 
  • Deep knowledge of our users and customers, and the data about how our customers (internal or external) engage with our products 
  • Industry trends and the competitive landscape as they pertain to her product 

 

While each member of the product team may be accountable for a specific risk, we look for product managers that understand that consistent innovation is the result of each member of the product team contributing their passion and their ideas.  The product manager must collaborate closely with her product designer and engineers to discover effective solutions, and then work together to deliver those solutions to market. 

 

While we empower our product teams to figure out the best solutions to the problems that need to be solved, we also hold those teams accountable to the results.  Shipping is necessary, but not sufficient.  We look for product managers that are not afraid of signing up for results, even when this means they have to work through others to achieve the necessary results. 

 

This job, as with the other roles on the product team, is an individual contributor role.  You will need to be able to influence your teammates, as well as colleagues, stakeholders, and key executives, through your use of data and logic. 

Voraussetzungen

 COMPETENCIES FOR SUCCESS 

  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience. 
  • Demonstrated understanding of the techniques and methods of modern product discovery and product delivery. 
  • 3 years working on technology-powered products as either a product manager, product designer, engineer, data analyst, data scientist, or user researcher.  
  • Demonstrated ability to learn multiple functional areas of business – engineering, design, finance, sales, or marketing. 
  • Demonstrated ability to figure out solutions to hard problems with many constraints, using sound judgement to assess risks, and to lay out your argument in a well-structured, data-informed, written narrative. 
  • Proven ability to engage with engineers, designers, and company leaders in a constructive and collaborative relationship. 


DIVERSE PERSPECTIVES

We know that innovation thrives on product teams where diverse points of view come together to solve hard problems in ways that are just now possible.  As such, we explicitly seek people that bring diverse life experiences, diverse educational backgrounds, diverse cultures, and diverse work experiences.  Please be prepared to share with us how your perspective will bring something unique and valuable to our product teams.
