Technical Product Manager

About the Role

We’re looking for a Technical Product Manager who can bridge business needs and engineering execution. You’ll work closely with engineers, designers, project managers and stakeholders to translate product requirements into clear technical specifications, drive delivery, and ensure solutions are scalable, reliable, and aligned with product goals.

This role is ideal for someone who understands how software is built, can speak comfortably with engineers, and still thinks deeply about user and business impact.

Responsibilities

Product & Technical Execution

Own the end-to-end lifecycle of features: discovery, requirement definition, development, release, and iteration

• Translate product requirements into clear technical specs, user stories, and acceptance criteria
• Work with engineering teams to evaluate technical feasibility, trade-offs, and implementation approaches
• Participate in architecture discussions and technical design reviews (without being the architect)

Cross-functional Collaboration

• Partner closely with Engineering, Product Design, Data, and Operations teams to deliver high-quality features
• Align stakeholders on scope, timelines, dependencies, and risks
• Facilitate backlog grooming, planning, and prioritization discussions

Delivery & Quality

• Manage and prioritize the product backlog based on reach, impact, effort, and technical constraints
• Ensure on-time delivery while maintaining engineering quality and scalability
• Identify and mitigate technical risks early (performance, reliability, security, etc.)

Data & Continuous Improvement

• Define success metrics and work with data teams to track outcomes
• Use data and user feedback to iterate and improve released features
• Continuously improve product and development processes

• Engineers trust your requirements and technical understanding
• Stakeholders have clear visibility into progress and trade-offs
• Product decisions are backed by data and technical rationale
