Senior Product Manager

At HackerRank, we are on a mission to change the world to value skills over pedigree. We are a high-performing, mission-driven team that truly, madly, deeply cares about what we do. We don’t see velocity and quality as tradeoffs - both matter. If you take pride in high-impact work and thrive in a driven team, HackerRank is where you belong.

About the team:

You’ll be joining the team behind HackerRank Community - a platform that supports millions of developers as they learn, grow, and find jobs they love. This team isn’t just building a product; we're shaping the future of software development and what it means to truly empower developers at every step of their journey.

We're a fiercely passionate group that sweats the details and obsesses over every interaction a developer has with us. We care deeply about our users - so much so that talking to them regularly is second nature, not a box to check. We get energised by the joy of learning, the rise of AI in development, the challenge of hard problems, and the beauty of a well-crafted solution. You’ll find us debating UX flows late into the evening, jamming on crazy creative ideas, and pushing each other to make things better - always.

We’re quirky, vocal, driven, and relentless in our pursuit of building magical experiences for developers. If you’re someone who feels a spark reading this, you just might be one of us.

About the role:

This is a high-impact Product Manager role leading HackerRank Community - a critical product that helps millions of developers learn, grow, and get hired. You’ll be responsible for driving user growth and engagement by shaping bold strategies, running high-velocity experiments, and scaling what works. With deep access to our user base and a strong cross-functional team, you’ll unlock value for developers while building a category-defining platform at the intersection of learning, community, and AI.

What you’ll do:

• Define the long-term vision for the product based on market needs
• Define the strategy to differentiate the product and execute on the vision to win 10x more business. Think outside of the competitive matrix, the biggest market share is through alternatives that are not direct competition
• Make bold, data-informed bets that are aligned to the strategy and come out of deep quantitative analysis as well as qualitative inputs gathered through customer conversations
• Lead go-to-market activities in partnership with Product Marketing, Customer Success, Sales and Support functions to help guide customers and prospects on how to unlock value through their hiring process
• Thrive in an empowered team culture, where problems and solutions are built together, not handed down from top to you nor handed down to teams through you. Do this in a quick an iterative manner
• Enable world class support for the product, so users quickly unlock the value they're looking for
• Be yourself, bring your best, learn as you go

You will thrive in this role if:

• You are a builder at heart. You enjoy creating something from scratch, transforming ideas into tangible, high-impact products, and thrive in ambiguity
• You take a customer-first approach. You excel at identifying unmet customer needs and turning insights into innovative, user-centric solutions
• You are a strategic thinker and data-driven. You balance a deep understanding of data with intuition to solve complex problems, prioritize effectively, and make decisions that drive both short-term wins and long-term success
• You are a cross-functional leader. You bring together engineering, design, and business stakeholders, aligning teams around shared goals and driving execution.
• You have a bias for action and extreme ownership. You’re proactive, experiment-driven, and deeply invested in delivering outcomes, holding yourself accountable for the product’s success.
• You are excited and curious about the intersection of AI and software development and, specifically, about the ability of LLMs to code in real-world scenarios

What you bring:

• Overall 5+ yrs experience, 3+ years of PM experience, preferably building B2B SaaS, enterprise products and/or tech services and/or platforms.
• Experienced building developer facing SaaS products (you can engage with engineering beyond just product and user needs) OR, 2+ years of Software Programming experience (in any industry).
• Experienced in developing a robust, long term data-driven, customer focussed vision and strategy.
• Experienced in building and owning roadmaps for multiple teams backed by solid prioritization and clear milestones.
• Ability to dive deep into ambitious problem statements and create customer value.
• Proven track record of successfully launching and growing new products and/or significant features.
• Ability to work in a fast-paced cross team, cross-geo environment and to deliver on a common vision.
• Ability to work with engineers, designers and analysts and be comfortable presenting to non-technical/business stakeholders and customers
