Product Lead

Oakland, California, United States

Everlaw is looking for a motivated Product Lead/Product Manager to join our growing Product team! In this role, you will drive the development of our core product. We are looking for candidates with experience working in product management that can apply that experience to owning features from the beginning to the end of their lifecycle. 

In this role, you will become an expert on our product, define problems, and devise solutions that meet our users’ core needs. You will work collaboratively with our design and development teams, developing critical thinking and product leadership skills in the process. You will become adept at rigorous feature testing to ensure feature quality and work closely with our technical writing team to generate user-facing documentation that supports successful adoption of the product. 

Finally, you will support the development of our core product roadmap by scoping priorities, conducting user research, documenting requirements, engaging internal stakeholders (e.g. other departments or the executive team), and driving forward feature progress in the face of product and organizational complexity. This role requires you to function autonomously by taking ownership of key product outcomes and driving progress forward.

At Everlaw, our mission is to promote justice by illuminating truth. Our company culture is open and vibrant, and we’re committed to the professional growth of our team members, offering an annual learning and development stipend and regular check-ins with managers regarding career goals. If you’re looking for a place that values passion, integrity, thinking big, and a desire to learn, we’d love to hear from you! Think you’re missing some of the skills and are hesitant to apply? We do not believe in the “perfect” candidate and encourage you to apply if you feel you can bring value to our team.

  • Execute and iterate on team processes including release processes and messaging, product and team stats, and more.

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
