You’ll get substantial senior leadership exposure, significant ownership and autonomy over a high-visibility product area, and the opportunity to solve deeply complex problems at scale while delivering experiences that users understand, trust, and love.

  • Own the end-to-end sharing experience, including sharing UX, access management, and receiver experiences, spanning both frontend and backend systems.
  • Simplify complex sharing flows, striking the right balance between intuitive default experiences and advanced capabilities for power users.
  • Partner closely with engineering, design, data science, research, and cross-product leaders to deliver high-quality, scalable solutions.
  • Make high-impact, independent product decisions while aligning closely with senior leadership and executives on critical tradeoffs.
  • Communicate clearly and persuasively with stakeholders, including presenting defensible product perspectives to the executive team.
Requirements
  • 8–10+ years of experience as a Product Manager, with ownership of complex, user-facing systems at scale.
  • Strong systems thinking and technical proficiency, with the ability to work closely with engineering teams on complex architectures.
  • Deep experience using data, metrics, and experimentation to inform product decisions and drive outcomes.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead large cross-functional teams and to set strategy across organizational boundaries.
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, including executive-level storytelling and alignment.
  • Strong customer focus, with a track record of delivering simple, intuitive experiences in complex domains.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Prior experience working on sharing, permissions, access control.
  • Experience designing and optimizing virality loops or network effects in large-scale products.
  • Background in trust & safety or permissions-heavy domains.
  • Track record of leading long-running, multi-quarter initiatives with significant cross-team dependencies.
