+ Garner an understanding of compliance, legal, internationalization, accessibility, and other ongoing needs to ensure design and data science make the right CX trade-offs when needed.
+ Strengthen our product team by contributing to a culture of collaboration, innovation, and high performance.
**About You**
**Key Experiences & Skills:**
+ **Product Experience** : 6+ years of experience as a product manager, with at least 3 years as either a Technical PM or responsibility for delivering Data Science products, defining product roadmaps, prioritizing features, and working with cross-functional teams.
+ **Data Science Literacy:** a good understanding of data science and analytics. You'll be expected to be involved in deep conversations about different statistical methods, machine learning algorithms, data visualization and data infrastructure.
+ **Business Acumen:** ability to understand business goals and translate them into data science deliverables that can drive significant commercial returns. You will be able to communicate effectively with stakeholders and have a good understanding of market trends.
+ **B2B Product Expertise:** Experience in B2B products (with previous experience in HR Tech a significant plus).
+ **International Experience** : experience within a global organization, with an understanding of cultural nuances.
+ **Analytical Nature** : Ability to use data to make key decisions on tradeoffs on product initiatives. Skilled in analyzing and reporting on metrics and KPIs.
+ **Delivers Results** : Able to deliver technical product requirements and project plan, and then execute it, tempering enthusiasm for innovation with tactical prioritization of must-have features that customers require to have a frictionless experience.
+ **Collaborating and Influencing:** Negotiate with a genuine give-and-take approach, involving all stakeholders to shape a collective consensus. Build relationships that help achieve team objectives and lead cross-functional teams.
