Role
Who you are
- Five or more years of experience working in MarTech, AdTech, or a related field
- An entrepreneurial spirit. Entrepreneurial by nature, you are able to take a broad set of inputs, act in a self-directed manner, and steer the organization to a 100% finished product
- Strong execution. You are deeply technical. You might not code, but you get how it works. You set goals clearly, with those goals driving clarity of purpose for your focus and that of your team
- Empathy. You are customer-obsessed and seek to understand the needs and experiences of our end users
- An obsession with data. You are comfortable working your way around SQL and digging through troves of data to extract meaningful and supportive findings
- Comfort making hard tradeoffs. You can evaluate competing features, tasks, and issues to make informed recommendations about personal and team priorities
- Excellent communication skills. You are able to communicate to a number of different audiences of varying technical fluency and background
What the job involves
- Use market research, competition, and industry insights to shape product strategy and build our product roadmap
- Evangelize your products to the engineers that build them and the customers that buy them
- Work cross-functionally to guide products from conception to launch by connecting the technical and business worlds. You can break down complex problems into steps that drive product development
- Be a champion for testing, measurement, and iteration. Use data as a superpower to make educated decisions about product performance and product growth
- Translate ideas into action by drafting clear requirements for those who will build the product. You’ll seek to remove ambiguity and maximize efficiency at every step of delivery
Our take
Shopping habits are increasingly moving towards mobile. However, the process of buying on mobile remains riddled with problems and poor user interfaces that slow down purchase time and therefore reduce revenue for companies that rely on these channels.
Button is trying to make mobile eCommerce easier for customers and businesses. They provide seamless integrations of links or "buttons" within other third party partner's apps, allowing mobile customers to buy when their interest is highest. This provides brands with an alternative to pushing users to their eCommerce websites through channels such as Facebook or Google (as customers can make purchases directly in other apps).
The company has now driven $6 billion in eCommerce, delivering an average 3x revenue increase in app journeys vs mobile web - both of which showcase the impact it has made in the market. Button continues to expand its network and enhance the platform towards making mobile eCommerce work better for brands.
