THE ROLE
Product Managers at Hopper are “smart creatives” that will take the Hopper app from a disruptive, startup product to being the global leader in mobile travel. They work at the intersection of development, data science, customer relationships and user experience, as well as have a competitive understanding of the travel landscape to facilitate the creation of successful new features.
The Hopper Cloud Travel team is responsible for delivering best in class travel marketplace solutions alongside our B2B2C partners, for their customer bases of millions of users. We are seeking a product superstar to oversee product innovation and business growth for all of Hopper’s products that we deliver in our Cloud Travel vertical, into a new customer base and with a new partner.
The Product Lead will lead a team of engineers and designers who work across the entire stack of Hopper’s products aimed at delivering unique value to our customers and driving revenue growth. On any given day - whether you’re weighing the tradeoffs of offering new features, scoping and specifying solutions, or building business cases & models - your contribution will be critical to Hopper’s current and future success.
The Product Lead must be a scrappy, creative, analytical “doer” who can find innovative, impactful ways to build up our products in new channels and create a unique, differentiated experience for our customers and partners that no travel technology has been able to do before. This person is accountable for the success or failure of the vertical, responsible for driving cadence and innovation, working closely with our cloud partners.
IN THIS ROLE, YOU WILL:
- Set business strategy - uncover new areas of business opportunity, write business cases and narratives on these opportunities and execute against the opportunities.
- Define and curate product requirements
- Manage a product roadmap for a set of features and experiments from inception through implementation; collect requirements, establish key performance metrics, craft the user experience, and drive execution.
- Lead stakeholder conversations, negotiations, and discovery to ensure we are working backwards from our customers and our business goals.
- Work with the engineering team leads to drive cadence - the best teams are teams that have achieved product-development cadence and have a robust roadmap filled with experiments and features that are shipping on time.
- Ideate and evaluate features that further differentiate Hopper and align with the goals of our cloud partners.
- Understand and explain complex technical issues, discern impact, and communicate them to maximize clarity and drive resolution
- Brings new products to market by analyzing proposed product requirements and product development programs; preparing return-on-investment analyses; establishing time schedules with engineering
- Grow revenue - a vertical, and therefore its leader, is only as successful as its contribution to the business objectives.
- Maintain team alignment behind the objective, keeping the team motivated to ensure that everyone has the full context required to achieve the business objectives of the vertical.
