Little Spoon is looking for an experienced Senior Product Manager, Growth to join our high performing product management team in our New York City office or remotely from anywhere in the United States. In this critical role, you’ll be responsible for building new products and features which fuel Little Spoon’s new customer acquisition by delivering an exceptional customer experience and establishing growth loops that drive sustainable compounding growth. You will act as the single threaded leader for Little Spoon’s acquisition pod, develop a robust product vision and roadmap, and execute that roadmap with dedicated design and software engineering resources while partnering with a broad set of cross-functional stakeholders across marketing, operations, analytics, finance, and product development.

What You’ll Do:

• Define a long-term vision for Little Spoon’s DTC e-commerce platform and develop a clear roadmap of prioritized features and initiatives that deliver against that vision.
• Develop clear product requirements and specifications and work directly with software engineers, product designers, and data scientists to turn good specs into intuitive, working products.
• Partner with UX Research and UX Design to conduct casual conversations with customers and formal research studies to uncover core customer problems impeding new customer growth.
• Develop and implement an instrumentation strategy which enables you to form a robust understanding of how customers engage with your product and unlock actionable insights.
• Build and execute an experimentation roadmap. Design experiments, define primary and secondary metrics, activation logic, test duration, and success criteria. Analyze and share results with key stakeholders.
• Propose, build, and launch net-new customer acquisition programs and products from scratch.
• Manage relationships with a broad set of cross-functional stakeholders including marketing, analytics, product development, operations, finance, customer service, and C-Suite leaders.

What You’ll Need:

• 5+ years of relevant experience and 3+ years of Product Management experience delivering successful and innovative consumer facing products with your fingerprints all over them. You should be familiar with systems thinking, analytics and experiment design, and have a solid understanding of software development processes and concepts.
• Customer obsession. A track record of starting from the ideal customer experience and working backwards to make it a reality. You have plenty of examples of times you personally identified important customer problems by conducting customer research through formal studies and casual conversations with customers.
• Familiarity with the Jobs-to-be-Done (JTBD) framework, experience applying this framework to uncover actionable insights, and a track record of turning those actionable insights into meaningful business outcomes.
• A deep fluency with data. You are comfortable with basic concepts of statistics and probability, have experience instrumenting and analyzing clickstream analytics, and a track record of turning data analysis into actionable insights to drive meaningful outcomes for the business.
• A passion and sense for simple, intuitive, and elegant product design.
• A bias for action. You value calculated risk. You understand that execution pays for ideation and you don’t confuse activity with progress. You persevere when faced with ambiguity or setbacks and you never hesitate to roll up your sleeves and get the job done.
• Extremely high standards across the board. You’re used to pushing back when others tell you “it’s good enough” and you have an insatiable desire to improve.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills. You’ve been complimented on your ability to write a crisp PRD. You’re a highly skilled storyteller who can confidently communicate their vision and the potential upside of that vision to your peers and senior leaders.
• You’re comfortable making the decision to pivot or persevere. There can be immense pressure to frequently change priorities and direction in a start-up. You’re open-minded enough to pivot when it’s the right decision for the business but disciplined and courageous enough to push back and say no when it’s not.

Nice to Have:

• Experience as a founder or entrepreneur. You’ve led a business and you’re comfortable owning and optimizing business metrics.
• Growth and product experience at a successful tech or DTC startup.
• Experience as a single-threaded leader across a pod of engineers, designers, researchers, and data scientists.
• Experience as a UX designer, UX researcher, or software engineer.
