About Topsort

At Topsort, we believe in the mission of democratizing the secret technologies of the walled gardens and creating a privacy-first cookie-free world of clean advertising with modern tech, friendly products, and AI. We believe in making advertising intuitive, intelligent, and genuinely cool, without any of the creepy ads or cookie-obsession (well, maybe just the chocolate ones). In a rapidly changing industry, we're on a mission to democratize monetization access for all and ensure that advertising doesn't leave any brand or seller feeling confused or overwhelmed

Today, Topsort has 5 major hubs worldwide, and employees in 13+ countries, including Menlo Park, Boston, Santiago Chile, Sao Paulo Brazil, Barcelona Spain, and Sydney Australia. We are a truly global company that was born in the pandemic that’s had rapid growth since out of a genius product, a customer-first mentality, and a hardworking team of talented individuals. Since our founding in 2021, we’ve gained customers in retail, marketplaces, and delivery apps in 40+ countries and quickly approaching the #1 position in the industry.

Do you enjoy a fast-paced environment? Do you like seeing your work create real-time impact, being part of a rocket ship from the very beginning? Let’s do the unimaginable - let’s make ads clean and cool again, with AI and modern technology.

We thrive on working in the open, lifting each other up, and getting things done with a sense of urgency. We're the kind of team that loves making bold choices, sharing extraordinary opinions, and maintaining a 100 mph pace. No endless meetings here – if it can be done today, we're all about getting it done today.

What is this role like?

You will:

• Communication: Listening and Talking are both important in communication, especially in this B2B customer facing product management role where you will need to understand their problems and needs.

What (we think) you need to be successful - we’re open to not checking all the boxes and be proven wrong by outlier candidates as well! 

• Minimum 4 years of experience in product management or related roles
• Proven track record of successfully launching and scaling products, especially complex SaaS and API products

It's been written in our motto since day 1 that we are collaborative internally, competitive externally, and never the other round around. You are ultimately surrounded by just different people that are all here to help you get the job done and shine as a team. 
• Intellectual Rigor and Individuality: We were born in the pandemic by Stanford and Harvard alum cofounders who offer remote-working options with coworking memberships and (at least) once a year in person offsite gathering. You’ll be welcomed by coworkers in 11 countries that all bring a unique perspective to the company from day 1. From personalized birthday gifts to work anniversaries, and management training program or in-person gatherings or career talks and mentorships, part-time DJs and tik-tok vloggers are also commercial leaders and technical staff at Topsort. We don’t take management with a cookie cutter approach - but rather we cherish your quarks and think it makes us stronger. 
• Company Offsite and Industry Exposure: Once a year Topsorters get together as a whole and also meet customers and really spend time to get feedback 
• 401K Matching and Comprehensive benefits: We provide a generous and comprehensive set of health benefits, including vision, dental, and a 3% 401K matching as soon as you join!
