About the role
We are looking for a Product Manager to serve as a key member of the product function at Causal, deeply understand the customers and their needs, and shape the product roadmap to build a world-class product, enabling Causal to achieve its vision.
Why Causal?
- Innovate the Future of Data Tools: Tackle complex engineering and UX challenges as we develop our spreadsheet-esque interface. Create a platform that's incredibly powerful yet delightfully simple, striking the perfect balance between advanced functionality and user-friendly design.
- Shape Exceptional UI/UX Experiences: Ensure our interface is offering a low floor for newcomers and a high ceiling for power users tackling the most demanding use cases.
- Elevate Data Visualization: Help users transform numbers into narratives with beautiful charts and tables. Enhance our dashboarding capabilities to enable clear and compelling communication through information.
What's in It for You?
- Impact: Your work will directly influence how companies and individuals interact with our platform and as a result make critical decisions about their businesses.
- Challenge: Work with world class engineering and design team with modern practices on one side, and a broad base of user personas to understand and cater to on the other side
- Collaboration: Join a passionate team that values innovation, creativity, respect and mutual growth.
You Will
- Deeply Understand Our Product and Customers: Immerse yourself in every aspect of our product and grasp the nuanced needs of our customers to deliver exceptional solutions. Talk with customers/prospects at least 4h per week and dig into product data to always know what the current bottleneck for retention/expansion/activation is.
- Lead and Innovate: Play a crucial role in defining the direction of Causal's product, company, and culture, making a lasting impact on our journey forward.
- Own the Roadmap: Work with the founders, engineering, and design to maintain and execute upon the product roadmap — detailed for the upcoming month and a flexible view for the next quarter
- Execute on Roadmap:
- PM specific projects on the roadmap, and in partnership w/ lead designer and engineer: drive them from specs → clear scopes, make key decisions/trade-offs, project manage the team to timely delivery to customers, and keep everyone focused along the way.
- This also includes having a grasp of overall execution towards roadmap, even on projects that PM is not an owner of.
- Focus on Product Polish: Partner with Engineering to strike the right balance between new features vs. performance/reliability/usability improvements. This also involves week-by-week triaging and prioritisation.
- Own Internal + External Comms: Own external product communication (e.g. changelog, as well as larger feature launches in collaboration with go-to-market), and user resources (e.g. documentation, community). Own internal product communication to the rest of the org, so that the team knows what our roadmap and priorities look like.
- Keep your Eye to the future: Partner with founders, engineering, and design to understand the impact of product changes and use that to inform future decisions
