Job Description

beehiiv is on a mission to help the next million creators, publishers, and companies scale and monetize their audiences. We’re already home to tens of thousands of the most popular newsletters in the world—and we’re just getting started. We hit $1M ARR in January 2023, surpassed $7M ARR in January 2024, and are on track to reach $40M by the end of 2025 📈.

We are seeking a motivated mid-level Product Manager to lead our web builder. This role involves full ownership, from defining strategy to shipping features and incorporating user feedback. Success in this position requires the ability to consistently prioritize evolving initiatives, facilitate progress for others, manage multiple projects simultaneously, make data-driven decisions, deliver comprehensive requirements accompanied by design mockups, and provide meticulous product feedback by actively QAing ongoing projects.

You would be the ideal candidate if you have experience building design and editor tools, excel at shipping features at a high velocity in an organized manner, and consider yourself an obsessive power-user of no-code software products. 

Ideally, you will have:

• 4+ years of experience in product management
• Hands-on experience with WYSIWYG or block-based editor libraries like Figma, Canva, Squarespace 
• Familiarity with product analytics tools like FullStory, Heap, and Amplitude to develop dashboards for internal use 
• Familiar with Figma to create and give thoughtful design feedback, or for lo-fi mockups
• Experience using A/B testing to optimize consumer web experiences
• Excellent project management skills and ability to own a roadmap end-to-end
• Detail-oriented with excellent verbal and written communications
• Have a demonstrated ability to drive business results in a collaborative, cross-functional environment
• Knowing how to code is not a requirement, but, ideally, you have preliminary knowledge that allows you to work closely with engineers to evaluate different approaches to implementing product features, weighing tradeoffs, and other priorities effectively
• Having design experience is a huge plus

What you’ll be responsible for: 

• Bridging the gap between present-day functionality and the required future state of the product, driven by understanding the evolving needs of our users
• Lead extensive discovery by managing internal user forums, aggregating beta launch feedback, conducting user interviews, and competitor research 
• Create thorough PRDs that can be handed off to engineers for technical scoping
• Identifying user pain points through extensive user research and our QA team
• Track feature progress end-to-end, unblock teams, and maintain clear status updates through Linear, our product planning platform
• Assist in the execution of the roadmap by delineating milestones and requirements, and by collaborating with the engineering and design teams
• Develop and deliver comprehensive training to the internal team, ensuring a thorough understanding and effective communication of all new and updated web-builder features and functionalities
• Collaborate with our product designers on a library of customizable web-page templates to launch on a weekly cadence
• Track key product metrics, such as adoption, load times, engagement, web builder conversion, and churn, via dashboards and reports to identify trends and areas for improvement

Why beehiiv?

Bias towards action

Our first impulse is to act. We don’t get bogged down in unnecessary processes or bullsh**t. Perfection is the enemy of progress.

Ownership mentality

This company is ours. We go the extra mile because that’s what owners do. Every day, people step up to take on tasks outside of their responsibilities and do whatever it takes for us to succeed.

Building is in our DNA

We are obsessed with improving every aspect of our platform (and ourselves). Whether it’s our product, support, or partnerships, we never stop working to improve it.

We answer to our users

Nothing matters more than serving our users. If our users fail, we fail.

Ego comes second, but winning comes first

We put our egos aside to work collaboratively and build something special. It doesn’t matter who’s idea or who’s vision, we’re here to create the best outcome. We’re here to win.

We’ll take care of you:

• Competitive salary
• Stock Options
• Health, Dental, and Vision Insurance
• 401(k) employer match
• Unlimited PTO (mandatory 10 days per year minimum)
• Annual in-person team retreat
• Unlimited book budget
• Two deep-focus days without meetings
• Wellness day each month (every third Friday)
