What the job involves
- As a Product Manager at ButcherBox, you'll own the development and delivery of features within our core digital experience
- You're a customer-obsessed product professional who moves fast, thinks entrepreneurially, and leverages AI to accelerate your work
- You'll manage features end-to-end—from research through launch, go-to-market and optimization—working closely with engineering, design, member insights, customer service, marketing, and RevOps to ship features that delight customers and drive business results
- Use AI extensively for product briefs, prototyping, competitive analysis, and rapid iteration
- Own true end-to-end project management - not just roadmaps, but hands-on delivery
- Think holistically about launches - features ship with member communication, support readiness, and adoption strategy
- Move with entrepreneurial velocity - building quick prototypes, testing solutions yourself

- Drive product strategy for features and initiatives that align with company goals
- Contribute to product roadmaps, prioritizing features based on customer impact and business value

- Work closely with Customer Insights to conduct research and identify customer needs
- Understand technical constraints and make informed trade-offs between ideal features and feasibility
- Own end-to-end project management from concept through launch and post-launch optimization - feature isn't "done" when it ships, but when it is effectively communicated to customers and actively being used
- Coordinate cross-functional launch needs: marketing emails, customer support training, help center updates
- Work with marketing to develop communication strategy - how will we introduce this? What's the value prop?
- Track and report on project progress, ensuring timely delivery of objectives
- Monitor launch health and adoption - are customers finding and using the feature? Where are they getting stuck?
- Set clear, quantitative measures for product success
- Monitor product performance, user feedback, and market data to optimize features
- Make data-driven decisions to enhance user satisfaction and business metrics
- Conduct A/B tests and experiments to validate hypotheses
- Own post-launch analysis - understand why features succeeded or failed, share learnings with the team
- Communicate product plans, progress, and results to leadership and stakeholders
- Maintain transparency and alignment across the organization
- Partner effectively with senior team members to drive initiatives forward
Our take
Dollar sales of meat are on the rise, with a growing consumer preference in the US for sustainably sourced, fairly bought meat. Subscription box purchases across DTC businesses are proving a runaway success, too. So it’s perhaps unsurprising that ButcherBox, a subscription meat company combining all these upwards trends, has been having a strong few years.
Given that ButcherBox hit upon a smart market niche, it is no surprise that competing startups are entering the space - and existing butchers are expanding to take a piece too. FarmFoods, for example, is a highly recommended rival, and Omaha Steaks saw substantial spikes in interest recently. That said, ButcherBox has continued to conduct a savvy marketing campaign that sees it win out on name recognition, and has allowed the company to bootstrap itself to $600M in revenue.
Recently, the company expanded into the pet food market, capitalizing on its large base of pet-owning customers, a move that holds significant potential as a promising new venture. Additionally, the company made its first acquisition in Truffle Shuffle, a vitual cook-along platform. This acqusition is aimed at boosting cosnumer confidence across the US, particularly within the ButcherBox community. The company is going from success to success and it will be an exciting one to watch in the coming years.
