As a Product Manager on the Consumer team, you’ll shape how neighbors discover, return to, and engage with Nextdoor across core surfaces like feed, alerts, invites, and growth loops. You’ll be the bridge between curiosity and data-driven insight, ensuring that every decision is rooted in real user behavior and measurable impact.

We’re looking for a product thinker with strong instincts and an experimental spirit - someone who thrives in ambiguity, enjoys working across multiple surfaces, and blends design intuition with a deep respect for data. You’ll partner closely with engineering, marketing, data science, research, and design to uncover high-leverage opportunities, run meaningful experiments, and ship features that drive intentional usage and genuine community connection.

This role is ideal for someone energized by broad scope and eager to explore how product mechanics, user behavior, and data intersect. You’ll influence foundational experiences across Nextdoor, using a combination of metrics, experimentation, and user insights to help define what success looks like in a community-driven product. 

• Drive execution across high-impact surfaces (such as feed, alerts, invites, and growth loops) to increase daily activation, retention, and neighbor connection
• Identify and prioritize opportunities using product intuition, robust analytics, and user research - focusing on experiments that improve growth funnels and engagement loops
• Design and run A/B tests to unlock retention drivers, deepen engagement, and steer product direction through measurable outcomes
• Balance short-term iteration with long-term vision, setting clear success metrics and sequencing impactful bets that align with company goals
• Collaborate deeply across teams - engineering, design, data science, research, and marketing - to build intuitive, scalable experiences that can be measured and iterated on
• Champion both user-centric design and data-informed iteration, continuously refining features based on user signals and business metrics
• Contribute to team culture by bringing clarity to ambiguous challenges and aligning stakeholders around growth-focused strategies

• 5+ years of product management experience in growth or consumer focused roles
• A strong product intuition grounded in empathy, paired with a keen understanding of what makes user experiences simple, delightful, and useful
• Experience driving impact through experimentation and iteration, with a track record of designing and analyzing A/B tests or other data-driven experiments
• Deep curiosity about how users think, feel, and behave, particularly within social platforms or community-driven products that leverage network effects
• Comfort in synthesizing quantitative data and qualitative insights, translating them into actionable product strategies and roadmaps
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, capable of rallying cross-functional teams around growth-driven objectives
• Familiarity with growth loops, engagement mechanics, or onboarding/activation systems, and a readiness to optimize funnels and retention
• A bias toward action and a passion for uncovering the highest-leverage opportunities in real-world, community-driven products
• Eagerness to explore and apply AI and emerging technologies to reimagine how work gets done
