Your Role

We’re hiring a Senior Product Manager for volleyball who is accountable for the outcomes delivered from larger product initiatives, setting the vision and strategy to drive market outcomes through effective leadership during discovery and delivery. This role is about charting new territory for the company by balancing being highly strategic and highly operational.  As a Senior Product Manager, you’ll:

  • Set the vision and strategy. You’ll define the outcomes and prioritization for volleyball and evangelize the desired customer and business outcomes to your squad, release team, and the company.
  • Lead discovery and delivery. You’ll fill the Product Owner role on a cross-functional squad, ensuring the Product Backlog is transparent and prioritized, and you will lead discovery to reduce key value, viability, usability, and feasibility risks before development.
  • Drive product viability. You’ll ensure solutions are both valuable to customers and viable within business constraints, contributing a solid knowledge of constraints from marketing, sales, finance, legal, and privacy.
  • Champion the user. You’ll live on the ground floor by regularly interacting with customers to gain empathy and understanding, synthesizing quantitative and qualitative information to drive product changes and improvements.
  • Influence the roadmap. You’ll contribute to the long-term volleyball strategy and roadmap for your product team, using data and logic to influence your teammates, colleagues, stakeholders, and key executives.
  • Lead cross-functional efforts. You’ll collaborate closely with a cross-department release team to ensure the squad’s solutions are successfully delivered to the market.

Location

Our priority is to hire someone for this role who lives near our office in Lincoln, but we're also open to remote candidates in the US that are currently in the central or east coast time zones.  Specific states within eastern and central time zones are AL, FL, GA, IL, IN, IA, KS, KY, LA, MA, MI, MN, MO, NE, NH, NC, OH, OK, PA, SC, SD, TN, TX, VA, WI, WY.  We are not open to considering candidates in other locations at this time.   

Must-Haves

  • Experienced in product management. You have 5–8 years of experience as a Product Manager, overseeing a significant scope, a more complex product, or a larger market.
  • A volleyball expert. You are an acknowledged expert on your target users and customers, understanding the competitive volleyball landscape and relevant industry trends to inform your decisions.  This is a hard requirement. 
  • Process proficient. You have a strong understanding of product discovery techniques, knowing how to tackle and reduce product risks upfront, and you execute your Product Owner responsibilities effectively for product delivery and optimization.
  • A collaborative leader. You work effectively with your squad and cross-functional partners, leveraging your team’s skills. You effectively influence and inspire people without direct management, and others look to you for leadership, especially in stressful situations.

Nice-to-Haves

  • SaaS experience. You’ve spent time at a high-growth SaaS company specifically building data analysis, video, and/or recruiting platforms.  
  • Trend awareness. You pay attention to what’s happening in the sports technology industry. You’re able to adapt to market/tech trends when needed, and can guide your teams to do the same.
  • Business and product operational knowledge. You understand the various dimensions of the company’s business, from finance to sales, and you are an acknowledged expert on how your product works, enabling you to effectively demo, train, and handle live customer support inquiries.
  • Strategic foresight. You track industry trends and the competitive landscape as they pertain to your product, and you can provide forecasts and projections as required by your business unit’s General Manager.

Our Role

  • Champion work-life harmony. We’ll give you the flexibility you need in your work life (e.g., flexible vacation time, company-wide holidays and timeout (meeting-free) days, remote work options and more) so you can enjoy your personal life too.
  • Guarantee autonomy. We have an open, honest culture and we trust our people from day one. Your team will support you, but you’ll own your work and have the agency to try new ideas. 
  • Encourage career growth. We’re lifelong learners who encourage professional development. We’ll give you tons of resources and opportunities to keep growing.
  • Provide an environment to help you succeed. We've invested in our offices, designing incredible spaces with our employees in mind. But whether you’re at the office or working remotely, we’ll provide you the tech stack and hardware to do your best work.
  • Support your mental and physical health. We care about our employees’ wellbeing. Our Employee Assistance Program, employee resource groups and fitness partner Peerfit have you covered.
  • Cover your medical insurance. We have multiple plans to pick from to ensure you’ll have the coverage you (and your dependents) want, including vision, dental, fertility healthcare and family forming benefits.
  • Contribute to your 401(K). Yep, that’s free money. We’ll match up to 4% of your own contribution.
