Full-time position with at least 2 years of experience in working with the cross-functional product development team, Amsterdam
About us
Up to 15% of the major city’s space is used for on-street parking. At the same time, a lot of indoor parking spots remain empty. At ParkBee we are on a mission to change that. We develop smart tech solutions to get parked cars off the street in order to create space for people instead of cars.
We are developing a cloud-based service to integrate with third-party applications such as Parkmobile, Park-line, RingGo and YellowBrick. As a development team, we are striving to build stable and scalable systems. Our goal is to offer the ultimate service for customers and real-estate owners by connecting with multiple providers. Join us and play a very important role in developing our product even further.
Your Role:
Being user-centered is the heart of ParkBee, because we believe that creating value for the user is key for a successful company. We are growing and therefore looking for a passionate Product Manager to join our tech team, to create the best solutions for our customers while at the same time making viable decisions for the business. If this is a culture you want to add to, if you are a highly-motivated team player with a genuine interest in technology, and passionate to deliver innovative and valuable products for this industry, we are the right company for you.
Your Tasks:
You will have a crucial role in the tech team. Together with the other team members, you will be responsible for delivering valuable solutions to customers.
