As Product Manager, New Product at Fabric, you will be fully responsible for the product and all related work that impacts its success. This is a brand new team with the task of building a 0-1 product for parents as it relates to financial planning. As the owner of your product, you will:

• Develop a product vision (where you see the product in the next year, three years, five years) and product strategy (how we’ll get to the vision)
• With limited direction, prioritize and implement the highest impact features that solve our hardest problems (features that our users love in ways that work for the business)
• Partner closely with your team, adjacent product teams, and stakeholders to build solutions that sit at the intersection of user pain points and company goals

This role is 100% remote.

Role @ Fabric

• User Insights & Product Discovery: Deeply understand our users’ problems, needs, and behaviors through qualitative and quantitative research methods. Engage in continuous product discovery processes, including user research, user testing, and prototyping to validate hypotheses and ensure that we are building the right features and products. Translate these insights into clear, actionable product strategies and roadmaps that are aligned with company goals.
• Experimentation & Validation: Design and execute experiments to test assumptions and hypotheses about product features and user needs. Use A/B testing, MVPs, and other experiment frameworks to validate ideas with minimal risk and investment. Use the learnings to iteratively refine product concepts before committing significant resources.
• Product Vision & Strategy: Develop and articulate a compelling product vision and strategy that aligns with the company's goals and resonates with user needs. Ensure that the product discovery and validation feed into the vision and strategic planning, enabling informed decision-making and prioritization. At the same time, have an opinion on when to accept technical and product debt and when to pay it down.
• Execution Excellence: Lead cross-functional teams (including design, engineering, data, research, marketing, and support) to define requirements and bring validated products to market. Focus the team on high-impact initiatives, ensuring a lean approach to development and a rapid iteration cycle based on user feedback, data monitoring analysis, and if we are hitting our company goals.
• Data-Driven Decision Making: Utilize and synthesize data from user interactions, user research, market analysis, and experimentation outcomes to inform product decisions. Establish and monitor metrics to measure product performance, user satisfaction, and business impact, synthesizing these insights to prioritize feature development and improvements against our company goals
• Stakeholder Management & Communication: Collaborate with stakeholders across the organization to align on product goals, communicate discoveries and insights, and ensure a shared understanding of product direction (e.g., scoping of new features,  progress on features in development, and releases of new features). Prioritize initiatives based on strategic importance and resource availability, managing expectations and reporting on progress. 
• Mentorship & Leadership: Coach and mentor product management staff in product discovery techniques, user research methodologies, and experiment design. Be open to receiving coaching and feedback to continuously improve product management skills. Foster a culture of collaboration, learning, experimentation, and user-centric product development within the team. This is especially important given our company’s remote nature.

• 5+ years of product management experience (i.e., can run product discovery and product delivery with low touch guidance)
• Joy, creativity, and curiosity in exploring and solving thorny problems
• Superior attention to detail and desire to understand the underlying reality of the consumer behavior and what is driving that behaviorExperience synthesizing and interpreting user behavioral data (both qualitative and quantitative)Strong analytical skills, including working knowledge of SQL (bonus if you have experience with Python/R in a statistical capacity)
• A strong bias towards action (i.e., grittiness and scrappiness)

• Experience collaborating with engineering, design, and user experience
• Technical expertise on APIs and BI infrastructure
