Role
Who you are
- Experience: 5+ years of product management experience, with a strong portfolio of shipping customer-facing products that successfully balance technical execution with user-centric design
- Industry Knowledge: Proven experience in B2B SaaS, ad platforms, or marketplace products, with a focus on creating intuitive and impactful user experiences
- Skills: Exceptional collaboration, analytical, and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively across diverse cross-functional teams
- Passion: A genuine passion for solving problems for small business owners and a commitment to creating products that are both functional and beautiful
What the job involves
- As a Senior Product Manager, you'll be responsible for the entire lifecycle of our self-serve restaurant ads platform, from campaign creation to performance reporting.
- You'll balance robust technical execution with a strong focus on user-centric design, creating intuitive and powerful tools that empower small business owners.
- This is a design-forward role requiring high ownership, where you'll shape how restaurants grow through OpenTable. We're looking for someone who thinks beyond features and funnels – someone passionate about building a five-star product experience for busy restaurant owners investing in their business
- Lead Product Development: Own the development of OpenTable's ad campaign suite, delivering innovative, self-serve tools that enable restaurants to manage advertising campaigns and achieve measurable business growth
- Drive User Experience: Collaborate closely with design teams to craft five-star product experiences that are both highly functional and aesthetically pleasing
- Leverage Data & AI: Utilize AI and data science to develop solutions that optimize ad targeting, budget management, and campaign performance based on real-time diner behavior and restaurant demand
- Innovate Monetization Strategies: Experiment with auction-based pricing, personalized recommendations, and real-time adjustments to enhance marketplace efficiency and drive revenue growth
- Ensure Seamless Integration: Guarantee that ad campaigns seamlessly integrate with the broader marketplace, effectively balancing supply and demand while maintaining a positive experience for both diners and restaurants
- At OpenTable, we pride ourselves on fostering a global and dynamic work environment. As a team member with us, you will benefit from a schedule tailored to accommodate a global workforce operating across multiple time zones
- While the majority of your responsibilities may align with conventional business hours, there will be instances where you are expected to manage communications - via calls, Slack messages, or emails - outside of regular working hours to effectively collaborate with international colleagues, respond to restaurant partners, and/or address urgent matters
- OpenTable will always abide by and consider local laws and regulations
Our take
OpenTable was one of the earliest innovators in the online reservation space, setting up shop in 1998 as a tool to enable restaurants to take bookings online. Rather than charging consumers for the service, OpenTable generates revenue via a monthly subscription and reservation fee from businesses.
Today, the platform is used by tens of thousands of restaurants around the world and seats over 1 billion diners per year. The company was acquired by Booking Holdings – the world's largest travel company – for $2.6 billion in 2014, and remains a subsidiary of the group to this day.
OpenTable is the dominant player in the restaurant reservation software category, with an impressive 45% market share, but does face increasing competition from platforms like Resy, Tock, TableAgent, and many more. Nonetheless, this market leader has garnered an impressive reputation, and there is nothing to say it won't hold on to the dominance it has earned into the future.
