This role requires a leader who moves fast, has an entrepreneurial spirit, and is capable of breaking down and solving complex problems. You will be expected to operate both strategically and tactically: thinking big to drive new opportunities, diving deep in data to uncover customer insights, and working backwards from the customer.

You also will partner closely with engineering teams to bring your plans to life.

  • Build product management processes and implement best practices to build an exceptionally well functioning product and design team.
  • Define the roadmap, break down the work into a well-prioritized plan, and execute.
  • Drive product features through their entire creative cycle: ideation, specification, design, development, release, analysis, and iteration
  • Develop qualitative and quantitative data insights from customer research, data analysis and business analytics to help drive product decisions

  • Customer Focused. You have a desire and ability to connect with our external or internal customers to fully understand their needs deeply.
  • Learner. You have an appetite to learn new things or new technologies all while exhibiting humbleness when exploring unknown technologies

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.
