What the job involves
- We are looking for a Senior Product Manager to own the roadmap, planning, and quality customer experience of the Compass iOS and Android applications, ensuring the Compass platform meets the needs of its users on-the-go, maximizing customer value and adoption. Our Mobile team is centralized, and in this role, you will collaborate with partner PMs that are responsible for their products across mobile and web, while you will be responsible for the product vision for mobile-specific product areas
- A successful candidate will thrive on cross-functional collaboration and on the holistic prioritization of resources for maximum user impact. You have extensive native mobile product management experience and are used to partnering closely with Engineering and Design. Your communication skills are impeccable and you enjoy rallying stakeholders, including executives and larger groups, to find consensus and even compromise. You can think on the fly and not only apply but communicate and rationalize prioritization decisions

- Defines a holistic long term Product vision for both iOS and Android apps. For example, this might include investing more on certain flows or further investing in the Design System framework to speed up velocity
- Act as the Product Lead for Mobile specific features/functionality, driving the project’s ideation, research, design, and development. For example, implementing more secure authentication methods or AI feature integrations on our applications
- Collaborate with cross-functional Teams to ensure the successful delivery of critical mobile projects, including weighing in on UX and implementation decisions (for example, ensuring consistent experiences across products or building native components vs. embedded mobile web components)
- Drive and disseminate organization wide best practices to cement Mobile as a key step in the upstream product/feature lifecycle, arming Product team PMs and Designers with the information and skills to develop Platform-inclusive strategies
Our take
Compass uses an AI-driven platform to smooth out and speed up the process of buying, selling, or renting property. It functions much like a traditional broker, but employs tech to reduce the time, uncertainty, cost and friction of transactions for buyers, sellers & agents.
It's disrupting a sector so far largely averse to tech innovation, allowing users to close deals in less time than the industry average of 30-45 days. Compass is now the largest independent real estate brokerage in the USA, with over 29,000 agents nationwide.
Despite being a leading residential brokerage and competing well, Compass has remained unprofitable. While the company is replanning its cost structure to be profitable over the next year, it announced its third round of payoffs in early January 2023. Its profit-generating plans include expanding into mortgages, escrow & title services.
