We are looking for a Senior Product Manager to join our growing team at Properly. The purpose of this role is to rally a team to discover and deliver world-class software products to Canadians. You will work directly with top-calibre designers and engineers, own team OKRs and a product backlog, and have reign and resources to prioritize your backlog. Initially, you’ll iterate existing products that already have traction, but as we grow together you’ll have opportunities to launch novel products and reach millions of users.
We are looking for someone with T-shaped skills: deep skills in core product practices and shallower (but still useful) skills across a broad range of topics. You’ll have mentorship from the best product people and business leaders in the industry including our advisors and business partners.
