How We Work:
We empower our product teams to solve hard problems – customer problems and business problems – in ways that our customers love, yet work for our business. Our Product Team is cross-functional and durable, generally comprised of a Product Manager, a Product Designer, and several Engineers.
We staff our teams with the skills necessary to come up with effective solutions that are valuable (our customers choose to buy or use), viable (the solution works within the many constraints of the business), usable (the user can figure out how to use) and feasible (our engineers have the skills and technology to implement).
While the Product Designer is accountable for ensuring the solution is usable, and the engineers are accountable for ensuring the solution is feasible, the product manager is accountable for ensuring the solution is both valuable and viable.
This means that the Product Manager must contribute to their team a solid knowledge of the various constraints of the business – constraints from marketing, sales, service, finance, legal, and privacy are typical examples. The Product Manager must also contribute to the product team a deep knowledge of our users and customers, and the data about how our customers engage with our products. Finally, the Product Manager is expected to track industry trends and the competitive landscape as they pertain to her product.
While each member of the product team may be accountable for a specific risk, we look for product managers that understand that consistent innovation is the result of each member of the product team contributing their passion and their ideas. The product manager must collaborate closely with her product designer and engineers to discover effective solutions, and then work together to deliver those solutions to market.
While we empower our product teams to figure out the best solutions to the problems that need to be solved, we also hold those teams accountable to the results. Shipping is necessary, but not sufficient. We look for product managers that are not afraid of signing up for results, even when this means they must work through others to achieve the necessary results.
