• Availability for meetings and impromptu communication during Quora's “coordination hours" (Mon-Fri: 9am-3pm Pacific Time)
• 6+ years combined experience in Product Management
• Demonstrated experience driving user growth on a consumer product, with a track record of measurable impact on acquisition, activation, or retention metrics
• Excellent communication skills and intuition for communication strategy at every level -- within teams, within the company, to users, and other audiences
• Demonstrated ability to use qualitative and quantitative data to drive decisions and scale products through experimentation
• We encourage all candidates who share a passion for growing the world’s knowledge, even those who may not strictly meet all the preferred requirements, to apply, as we know that a diverse range of perspectives can have a significant impact on our products and our culture

Desirable

• Our product managers excel at and are responsible for guiding, enabling, and accelerating the efforts of our designers, engineers, and data scientists to build and ship successful products
• Even though we've experienced significant growth, we're still a small team where each PM needs to own a significant portion of the product experience, so in this role, you'll have the opportunity to drive company-level impact, influence overall company strategy, and interface regularly with product leadership and the executive team
• We're looking for a Product Manager to lead user growth initiatives across Quora's core product experience, focused on expanding our top-of-funnel acquisition, improving activation, and unlocking new growth levers across web and mobile
• This includes defining strategic direction, aligning cross-functional teams, running a high-velocity experimentation program, and generating insights that inform long-term platform and channel strategy
• Own the end-to-end strategy for user growth, with a primary focus on top-of-funnel acquisition, activation, and early retention across web and mobile surfaces
• Drive SEO-led growth for the web product, partnering with engineering, content, and data teams to improve discoverability, indexation, and organic traffic performance as a core acquisition channel
• Manage ambiguity, complexity, and cross-functional interdependencies in a fast-paced environment, doing what it takes to make the product successful
• Partner closely with engineering, design, data science, and product operations to define, build, iterate, and scale growth experiences
• Define objectives, metrics, and guardrails to guide prioritization and measure success
• Run structured experimentation across the funnel, using quantitative and qualitative insights to inform product strategy and roadmap
• Identify and unlock new growth levers; including referrals, lifecycle, and platform-specific opportunities to diversify channel mix and compound growth over time

• We are accepting applications on an ongoing basis
