HODINKEE – Sr. Product Manager- Atlanta
HODINKEE is a fast-growing media brand and shop that makes watches accessible to everyone. Over the past decade, founder Ben Clymer has grown HODINKEE into a thriving company of creatives. Our team now consists of writers, editors, designers, photographers, engineers, and so many other key players who cement HODINKEE’s position as the most trusted source for watch news and products. We have a website. An app. A retail business. And more. HODINKEE’s goal is to bring readers and consumers the best in wristwatches in a way that’s approachable, authentic, honest and fun.
What You Will Do
HODINKEE is looking for a full time Sr. Product Manager to lead and build a world-class product experience for our users. As a Sr. Product Manager over Shop, your scope of responsibility will span across our entire commercial operation including Hodinkee Shop and Crown & Caliber. At HODINKEE, we’re constantly evolving our retail experience to bring the most interesting products to our customers. As a Senior PM over Shop, you’ll be tasked with understanding our customers’ needs and ensuring business requirements are met, all while aligning with key leaders from across the organization.
If you’re our ideal candidate, you can work closely with design and engineering to drive key initiatives to completion through discovery workshops, data analysis, UX research, testing, and release management. In the many decisions you face, you’ll look to data to come up with the solution for the user. You’ll be developing business cases to understand the "why" behind product initiatives and empathize deeply with our user base, translating their needs into our next generation of features and services.
You can just as easily synthesize a product concept, designs, business case and requirements into a deck for the CEO as you can write epics, user stories and acceptance criteria for the engineering team. You provide clear, unambiguous requirements and instill confidence with engineering due to your attention to detail and deep understanding of how the product works and can be improved.
