Role
Who you are
- Demonstrable Product Experience: You have at least 3 years of professional product management experience, preferably in a SaaS or e-commerce environment. You have specific product lines that you have managed and those products/ features are in production today
- Strong Technical Background: You will interact with engineers every single day, and it’s not enough to just trust them to make great decisions. You have a technical understanding that allows you to interact with them in meaningful ways
- Exceptional Written Communication Skills: We move fast, but we value documentation. Your ideas must be written down, and not just in Slack messages. You can write product briefs, roadmaps, release strategies, and emails that are clear, concise, direct, and understandable. In fact, you enjoy writing, and it is not just a necessary evil
- Adaptability and Resourcefulness: You love and thrive in a fast-paced environment, demonstrating a scrappy and curious attitude to achieve results effectively. You are comfortable with the discomfort of uncertainty and change that is common in a fast-growing organization
- Design Skills for Collaboration: You can create initial sketches and even low-fi wireframes to facilitate collaborating with design and cross-functional teams to execute the product roadmap
- Continuous Learning: You’re constantly learning, actively seeking and embracing feedback from both internal and external stakeholders. You are dedicated to personal and professional growth, constantly striving to enhance your skills and contribute to the team's continuous improvement
- Self-starter: You're driven, proactive, and always ready to get things done. You are autonomous, able to take initiative and drive projects without needing external motivation. You have an ownership mindset when it comes to your work
- Adaptability: You thrive in unstructured environments and can quickly adapt to changes, even when faced with ambiguity. You're comfortable introducing structure where needed and can navigate the complexity of a startup with ease
What the job involves
- We are looking for an experienced, hungry, data-driven Senior product manager to dig deeply into several of our industry-leading Amazon marketplace tools
- You will drive outcomes by assessing our customers’ needs in a structured way that prioritizes data and requests from our customers as well as internal stakeholders and executive team
- You will work hand-in-hand with our engineering teams and collaborate on multiple product lines
- Through a combination of collaboration, planning, and robust Agile ceremonies, you will increment quickly, move fast and break things, and ultimately have the opportunity to deeply affect our products and continuing success
- Obsessively Focus on Customer Needs: Develop a deep and specific understanding of our customers by collecting and analyzing feedback over a multitude of customers, transforming insights into requirements, features, and ultimately, products
- Break Down Silos: Work hand-in-hand not just with product and design, but engineering. Insist on your team being your team, not “engineering and product and design and QA.” Further, collaborate with sales, marketing, and operations to ensure that all of our efforts are company efforts.
- Manage a Product Through Its Complete Lifecycle: Utilize an Agile SDLC along with a broader view starting at idea conception and running through maintenance to truly own your product lines–whether they are future, present, or past
- Drive Measurable Decision-Making and Outcomes: Build based on data, not just vague hopes and dreams. From customer surveys and insights to stakeholder feedback to KPIs, user visits, feature utilization, and ultimately ROI, you will act based on and upon objective data
- Communicate with Everyone: We move fast, and things change often. Effectively communicate product plans, progress, and updates to stakeholders across the organization, ensuring alignment and buy-in at all levels
Our take
In the realm of business operations management, a multitude of software tools is currently employed. For smaller enterprises, particularly those in the realm of eCommerce marketplaces, this reliance on various ASaaS solutions can lead to unnecessary expenditures amounting to thousands of dollars annually.
Carbon6 addresses this issue by consolidating the necessary software tools for eCommerce merchants, especially those operating within the Amazon marketplace, under a single integrated platform. While competitors such as Beamy and Paragon exist in this space, Carbon6 distinguishes itself by not solely targeting smaller sellers. Instead, it has developed a model that supports both nascent and growing sellers, guiding them through the phases of establishment, growth, scaling, and optimization.
A recent infusion of substantial funding highlights Carbon6's ambitious trajectory. This financial backing is earmarked for international expansion, with plans to establish new offices in Europe and Asia, Carbon6 is primed for significant growth, with aspirations extending beyond its current focus on the Amazon marketplace to encompass other online platforms.
