Senior Product Manager – Safety Training & Compliance

Remote - US

About Us! 

Founded in 2002, Raptor has partnered with more than 60,000 schools in 55 different countries, including 5,300+ K-12 US school districts, to provide integrated visitor, volunteer, attendance, dismissal, emergency management, and safeguarding software and services covering the complete spectrum of school and student safety. 

We are passionate about our mission to protect every child, every school, every day! 

About the Role

The Senior Product Manager for the Safety Training & Compliance suite will lead the vision, strategy, and execution of a core set of products that help K–12 schools train staff, meet safety and compliance requirements, and reduce administrative burden while strengthening overall school safety. This portfolio includes tools that enable districts to deliver and track mandated training, manage compliance tasks and reporting, and support consistent, audit-ready processes. The role will also initially include oversight of StudentWatch, a set of legacy modules focused on student behavior, incident tracking, and safety reporting, with the expectation that the Senior Product Manager will partner closely with the Student Wellbeing team to evolve and integrate the most valuable capabilities into the appropriate long-term product strategy.

In the near term, this Senior Product Manager will work closely with existing customers on the legacy platform to support key outcomes such as customer satisfaction, retention, and adoption, while driving enhancements, optimizations, and ongoing delivery across current-state initiatives. In parallel, the role will play a critical part in shaping the future of the portfolio—navigating a complex legacy platform with multiple modules and determining what to modernize, consolidate, integrate, or sunset. This work will be grounded in a combination of quantitative insights, including product usage, adoption, sales performance, and customer satisfaction metrics, as well as qualitative input from customer research, cross-functional partners, and executive leadership.

As a senior thought partner across engineering, design, sales, marketing, and Customer Operations, you will translate these insights into a clear product strategy and an executable roadmap, while remaining hands-on in prioritization, delivery, and continuous improvement. A key measure of success will be your ability to effectively communicate and champion your vision—building alignment with leadership and stakeholders—while ensuring the Safety Training & Compliance portfolio continues to deliver value today and evolves to support the company’s broader Student Wellbeing strategy over time.

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1

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.
