Job Overview:

We’re building the future of mobile learning at Coursera and we’re looking for a Principal Product Manager to lead it. You’ll shape the company wide mobile strategy for the app that millions of learners use to make progress towards their learning goals.

In this role, you'll set the multi-quarter vision for our mobile apps and lead the work that turns that vision into innovative, engaging experiences,  shaping how learners discover content, build habits, and stay engaged on their journey. You'll define where mobile invests, execute the strategy, and raise the bar for product craft across the team. This is a high-autonomy, high-impact mandate for someone who wants to define what mobile means for one of the world's largest learning platforms.

If you've set the direction for a mobile product at scale and have the track record to back it, we want to hear from you.

Responsibilities:

  • Define Coursera's multi-year mobile strategy, anticipating market and technology shifts and positioning mobile as a growth engine for the company, not just a delivery surface.

  • Influence mobile investment and priorities across the broader product organization, aligning teams around a shared vision and measurable business outcomes.
  • Champion learner needs and market opportunities, translating deep user understanding into engaging, effective, and accessible mobile experiences.
  • Leverage behavioral insights, experimentation, and data-driven decision-making to prioritize initiatives, measure feature success, and iterate continuously.
  • Raise the bar for product craft across the team, and setting the standard for how mobile products get built

Basic Qualifications:

  • 8+ years of product management experience with consumer or enterprise products.
  • Experience shaping mobile platform or portfolio investment strategy in direct partnership with executive leadership.
  • Experience establishing frameworks, planning mechanisms, or quality standards that other teams or functions adopt beyond your own.
  • Experience shipping capabilities for native mobile apps (iOS/Android) at scale.
  • Experience leading large, complex product initiatives across multiple teams that delivered measurable business outcomes.
  • Experience using quantitative data, experimentation, and user research to prioritize and measure product decisions.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in user-centered design and a track record of partnering with designers to create intuitive, delightful experiences.
  • Demonstrated ability to influence and align diverse stakeholders across an organization.
  • Knowledge of mobile growth and engagement levers, retention, notifications, and onboarding, 
  • Experience navigating platform specific constraints, including iOS and Android release cycles and guidelines.
  • Passion for lifelong learning and Coursera's mission where anyone, anywhere has the power to transform their lives through learning.
