Role
Who you are
- You bring 5+ years of experience in product management, preferably in SaaS platforms, with a strong emphasis on user acquisition
- You are obsessed with the customer. You have a strong desire to deliver a high-quality experience for every single user who touches the product. You will drop what you are doing to take a Zoom call with a customer, in fact, you probably talk with several customers every week right now
- SEO Expertise. You have a deep understanding of SEO principles and a passion for staying ahead of industry trends. While you might not be an SEO analyst, you know your way around Google Search Console and tools for enhancing SEO performance
- You have a track record of user acquisition. You can point to examples of how you’ve grown a business through product-driven user acquisition
- Dream big, iterate small. You can cast an exciting vision of the future and get the entire team to perform at a high-level. You know how to iterate towards a high-quality experience. You spend time obsessing over the quality of the product your building
- Combination of product intuition and data-driven. You understand the value of “gut feel”, but you know that it needs to be backed up with quantitative data and hard evidence too. You understand the value of proper tracking and analytics. You enjoy connecting daily work to the bigger picture and key business metrics, ideally through storytelling and narrative
- You have an eye for design. You have an established track record of working with product designers. If you have a background in design this will be a huge plus. You regularly pair with product design to build and optimize features and user flows. Whenever you receive a link to a Figma file, you get excited
- You are a skilled written communicator. Zapier is a 100% remote team and writing is our primary means of communication. You can use written communication to communicate your team’s vision, roadmap, and progress. You know the right tool for the job whether it’s managing the day-to-day cadence of projects or building cross-company momentum around a project
- You are hungry to make an impact. You know that building product is a means to an end. You want to build a line of business for Zapier that generates meaningful revenue and is loved by customers at the same time
What the job involves

- Develop our product-driven SEO and acquisition strategy. Help make sure we’re solving the most important problems for our prospective users
- Work with our SEO Manager to monitor the performance of our App Directory and act on the insights. Leverage those same tools to forecast the impact of product initiatives
- Accelerate the delivery of SEO and acquisition related product features from ideation to release

Our take
Even before remote working became the "in thing", freelancers, small business owners, and large organisations have found themselves needing more and more software platforms to serve their operations needs. As people used more software services, Zapier founders saw the need to connect the actions between these softwares and save everyone some time.
Zapier is the largest integration and automation tool for businesses. Since being founded, Zapier has grown its suite of automation offerings across almost every mainstream software service. The company is one of the most successful to come out of Y Combinator, and has also been one of the pioneers of remote working.
Zapier has so far, been able to capitalise heavily on its advantage as first entrants and has had very little actual competition. Software services aren't going anywhere anytime soon and organisations are only going to need more of them. This puts Zapier in a strong place growth-wise but also opens up room for bolder companies to get in on the action. Companies like Airtable and Integromat are already preying on more niche segments of Zapier's market share.

Additional info
- As a fully remote company with 800+ team members across 40+ states, 38 countries, and 18+ timezones, we’ve adopted a culture of asynchronous work. This work style allows teams to collaborate effectively across locations, time zones, skills, and each individual’s energy levels, and empowers employees to work in a setting that fits their needs. In practice, we live on Slack, with most conversations in public channels. It mimics the open-office feel and allows everyone to search the chat logs if they need to find something that happened when they weren’t around
