What Does a Product Manager Do?

Defining product strategy and roadmap, writing and managing PRDs and user stories, conducting user research and competitive analysis, partnering with engineering and design on feature development, analysing usage data to inform priorities, and communicating product decisions to stakeholders.

What We Screen For

3–7 years of product management experience with clear examples of shipped products, strong analytical capability (SQL or equivalent for data-driven decisions), demonstrated ability to influence cross-functional teams, and a genuine track record of user insight driving roadmap decisions. Technical PM roles require engineering background.

💡 Hiring Insight

The single most important interview question for PMs is asking them to walk through a specific product decision where they had limited information, competing stakeholder pressures, and had to make a call. How they describe that process reveals everything.

Typical Compensation
$115,000 – $185,000
Platform PMs, API PMs, and senior/group PM roles command the top of this range.
