We are seeking an Associate Product Manager to join our ASICS Global Digital Product Team. You would help define our omnichannel product roadmap and work with engineers, product owners, and business stakeholders to build out ASICS digital services that drive cross-channel sales, brand awareness and help us nurture a direct relationship with our customers. This person would need to think holistically about how we can craft compelling omnichannel experiences that tie eCommerce together with ASICS’ retail footprint.

We pride ourselves on being user-centric in all that we do. And this isn’t just lip service. We actually walk the walk when it comes to understanding user problems and/or frustrations, validating solutions, and acting on user feedback. We empower individuals to take ownership over choosing how to achieve our overall goals and objectives.

Our team strongly values curiosity, kindness, and honesty. We enjoy challenging ourselves with new problems and emerging technologies. We care about offering valuable products and services that help both our customers and other ASICS employees.

ASICS Digital is a global division of ASICS based in Boston, Massachusetts. We create and bring to market cutting-edge digital consumer experiences, apps and products for the ASICS brand. We are responsible for the continued development of mobile-fitness solutions such as ASICS Runkeeper and ASICS Studio, global e-commerce platforms, and other digital services that encourage people to move, get fit and stay balanced.

• Manage product development initiatives leveraging user and competitive research, business case development, project scoping, and all phases of the product development lifecycle.
• Define product specifications, establish milestones, and manage quality assurance activities for a cross-functional team.
• Define success metrics for new projects and track daily performance for existing products to ensure the team is moving towards defined goals.
• Provide operational support, triage issues, and prioritize improvements for existing omnichannel commerce and membership programs.
• Manage, as scrummaster, a cross-functional team to ensure the timely delivery of quality software products and the sustenance of team morale.

• Research, troubleshoot, diagnose, and recommend solutions to complex business and technical problems.
• Prioritize a backlog for a dedicated scrum team and report back to the organization on team performance.

• Strong analytical skills. Able to interpret data and trends, diagnose problems, and recommend action plans to resolve issues.
• Ability to advocate for quality, strategic work that aligns with business goals and deadlines.
• A self-starter who is confident and able to move projects forward with little direction.
• Outstanding verbal and written communication skills – from product specifications, to JIRA tickets, to stakeholder presentations.

• An understanding of the Mobile landscape and experience with app development a plus.
• Bachelor’s degree required.
