Location: New York City Innovation Hub (In-person)

About This Opportunity

We’re assembling an exceptional team of AI product leaders in NYC. The kind of people who’ve shipped breakthrough AI products that millions actually use and other top PMs seek out as collaborators. This isn’t about typical product management roles or career advancement perks. It’s about working alongside some of the most talented product minds and engineers in AI, solving fascinating problems at unprecedented scale.

You'll collaborate in-person with a carefully selected group designed for breakthrough thinking, backed by the resources and reach of Automattic's ecosystem, spanning WordPress.com, WooCommerce, Tumblr, and more. Think of it as an elite AI lab with the distribution and impact that comes with serving hundreds of millions of users.

What You'll Do

• Define and ship AI experiences across multiple Automattic products, from established platforms to emerging bets that push the boundaries of what’s possible.
• Work directly with engineers to rapidly prototype and iterate, bridging user needs with technical possibilities.
• Drive experimentation at scale across diverse user bases, learning faster than competitors through rapid iteration.
• Move fast on breakthrough ideas; design, ship, and measure AI features that set new standards in their categories.
• Scale successful innovations by integrating proven concepts into core product roadmaps.
• Push the boundaries of what product management looks like when exceptional talent works together.

You’ll Excel Here If You

• Have shipped AI products users love; you know the difference between demos and features that fundamentally change how millions of people interact with each other.
• Are exceptionally talented; you’re the PM other great product leaders want to collaborate with.
• Are deeply technical without coding; discuss model architecture and system constraints as fluently as user experience and business metrics.
• Move fast and think big; prototype quickly while architecting for massive scale.
• Thrive on working with other exceptional people rather than just seeking comfortable product environments.
• Think like a builder; comfortable with ambiguity, turning ambitious visions into shippable realities.

Experience We’re Looking For

• 4-6+ years in product management with 2+ years shipping AI/ML-powered features that reached significant scale.
• Track record of exceptional product impact; features or products you’ve shipped that meaningfully changed user behavior. (Be prepared to explain how!)
• Strong technical fluency; create detailed mockups, analyze complex data, understand API constraints, and communicate sophisticated ideas clearly to engineers.
• Experience working across multiple products with diverse technical architectures and user needs.
• Proven ability to work with top-tier engineering talent and contribute meaningfully to technical discussions.

What You’ll Be Working On

• Accelerate AI integration across our “Other Bets” portfolio, working with engineering teams to identify and ship transformative features.
• Define MVP approaches for AI in core products like WordPress.com and WooCommerce that set new industry standards.
• Build experimentation frameworks for rapid testing and learning across massive user bases.
• Create the product intelligence systems that help our teams see around corners and move faster than competitors.

Why This Role Matters

Shape AI transformation for hundreds of millions of users across creative, commerce, and communication experiences. Work on the kinds of product challenges that define entire categories: making content creation fundamentally more accessible, reimagining customer support, and helping small businesses access capabilities that were previously enterprise-only.

You’ll have the resources and reach to tackle problems most product managers can only dream about, alongside a team selected specifically for their ability to push boundaries.

Salary range: 

At Automattic, we use global salary ranges that do not vary by location. However, because this role is required to be based in our New York City office 5 days a week, we have applied an adjustment to the global band to support additional costs associated with the office-based role requirements. The salary for this role is 130,000-$250,000 USD.

If you later move to a different team or role at Automattic that is not NYC office‑based, your salary would be adjusted to the applicable global pay band for that role, which could result in a reduction in salary. Note that the global range would apply even if your chosen location of residence is NYC.

We are searching for high-caliber candidates with the skills and qualities to have a net positive for Automattic. Pay will reflect the potential contribution and the impact you can bring, which may, in some cases, go beyond the range stated. #LI-DNI

We’re looking for a Product Manager, Growth & Analytics to join the Beeper team. You’ll own product execution for our growth initiatives, working directly with Beeper’s leadership team to figure out what makes users stick, what blocks them, and what makes them pay … and then do something about it.

Your instinct is to scope before you build, measure after you ship, and make sure every product has a clear answer at the end. You’re not the kind of PM who waits for someone else to pull the data. You write your own SQL, build your own dashboards, and use what you find to make better decisions. That analytical depth is what sets you apart.

In this role you will:

• Own the product process for growth. Specs, user stories, success criteria, experiment tracking: you keep it tight so engineering isn’t guessing at scope and leadership isn’t guessing at outcomes.
• Run experiments end-to-end. Hypothesis, spec, instrumentation, launch, results. You close the loop every time.
• Build and maintain the dashboards leadership relies on. Activation, retention, conversion, engagement: the numbers the team checks every week come from you.
• Investigate when metrics move. When activation drops or retention shifts, you’re the person who figures out why and what to do about it.
• Work with engineering and support to validate problems and confirm whether what we shipped actually worked.
• Keep product documentation current. Feature specs, release notes, internal reference docs: the stuff that keeps a distributed team aligned.

You’ll do well in this role if you:

• Have four to six years in product management, growth, or a closely related role where you owned product execution.
• Have strong SQL skills (CTEs, window functions, cohort analysis, funnel queries). This is a hard requirement, not a nice-to-have.
• Have experience with a cloud data warehouse and can build dashboards and recurring queries.
• Can write a spec that engineering builds against and a data summary that leadership makes decisions with.
• Have run experiments and know the difference between shipping a feature and learning something.

It will help if you:

• Have experience with experiment design and A/B testing frameworks.
• Have worked on a messaging, social, or consumer product.
• Are familiar with subscription or freemium business models.
• Understand basic statistical methods enough to know when a result is meaningful and when you’re fooling yourself with correlation.
• Are comfortable working with imperfect data when instrumentation isn’t clean.

Bonus points if you’ve worked on a distributed team or at a startup where you had to be scrappy and self-directed. For this role, overlap with North American time zones (Eastern preferred) is important, so you can work closely with the leadership team. This is a mid-level IC role with high-ownership expectations: the leadership team will rely on your work to know whether our strategy is working.

Compensation and Benefits

Salary range: $120,000-$190,000 USD.  Please note that salary ranges are global, regardless of location, and we pay in local currency.

We are searching for high-caliber candidates with the skills and qualities to have a net positive for Automattic. Pay will reflect the potential contribution and the impact you can bring, which may, in some cases, go beyond the range stated.

This isn’t your typical work-from-home job—we are a fully-remote company with an open vacation policy. Read more about our compensation philosophy.
