The Role:

We are seeking a commercially strategic product leader to evolve our world-renowned email testing apps to an enterprise class email creative platform.

Through data-driven research and analytics, you will help build the framework for existing and future product development, owning the entire product life cycle from conception to launch and adoption.

A business visionary with an insatiable curiosity, you also know how to get work done in a fast-paced, engineering team. Above all, you understand the importance of working as a collaborative, cross-functional group to deliver the right product to the right market in a time sensitive and efficient manner.

You will work directly with the CTO while interfacing extensively with our customer-facing and engineering teams. You will continue to build out and lead a high performing product management team and be comfortable managing across disciplines, offices, and locations. Your extensive experience includes years of leadership, developing and executing a vision for products that clearly met and exceeded their business goals.
