Role
Who you are
- Ownership and accountability: you have an entrepreneurial spirit and passion for connecting with customers, deeply understanding their journey, and taking full ownership of the conception and success of your products. You thrive in a dynamic environment where flexibility is key and unnecessary bureaucracy is nonexistent!
- Attention to detail: you have a knack for crafting clean product requirements and a sharp, consumer-first eye to build delightful, user-friendly products
- Analytical skills: you are data-driven, intellectually honest and rigorous. You’re comfortable conducting analyses autonomously to identify opportunities, define success and measure the impact of your products. You are comfortable writing SQL queries and running A/B tests
- Past experience: you bring 3-5 years of experience in Operations, Product or Strategy roles and embody the values and skills outlined above. Experience as a Product Manager with a proven track record of collaborating with engineering, design, and business functions is a plus but not required
- Languages: fluency in English is required, German is a plus
What the job involves
- Become the go-to expert on our customers and merchants across all our markets by deeply understanding their needs and pain points. You'll analyze the data we collect and lead user research to gain both quantitative and qualitative insights, build your knowledge, and shape the product roadmap
- Build delightful product features from scratch, leading both the discovery and delivery phases in collaboration with software engineers, designers and other internal stakeholders
- Monitor and measure the impact of the products you launch, and use insights to continually improve and iterate

Our take
Upway is a second-hand marketplace for electric bicycles, offering a more affordable alternative to new models. The company purchases e-bikes from both private sellers and e-bike companies, refurbishing them and reselling at a discount, a model that appeals to those looking for quality e-bikes at a lower cost.
The electric bike market in Europe is booming and expected to double in value over the next decade. Upway capitalises on this growth by addressing consumer concerns about the quality of second-hand bikes. Through its refurbishment process, it ensures customers can confidently purchase pre-owned bikes, reducing both costs and environmental impact.
In addition to its expansion into key European markets, Upway has recently formed a strategic partnership with Rad Power Bikes. Through this collaboration, customers of Rad's US retail locations can trade in their old e-bikes for discounts on new models, supporting a circular economy. An exciting partnership that strengthens Upway's position as a leader in sustainable mobility and makes e-bikes more accessible.
