Whether it’s software architecture or our client implementation process, we’re still designing and building much of our product and operations from the ground up. Every PickTracer is a decision-maker and owner.

Senior Product Manager

About the Job

PickTrace is the leading vertical SaaS labor management platform, purpose-built for enterprise-scale agribusinesses. Think of large-scale farms that provide the food we eat every day. Our products help these businesses, referred to as “growers,” track their labor to ensure they can control their largest cost center and process payroll in a compliant manner.

Our product suite extends to the workers too, and that’s what this role is all about. We have a mobile application connected to a physical pay card that allows agribusiness workers to receive their pay. The card enables workers to spend their money around town, and the app helps them send money back home quickly and cost-effectively.

We are hiring a Senior Product Manager to lead our Pay Card product offering. This role will challenge you to use data to refine the product experience and pricing strategy, run endless tests to determine how to make our product easier to use for our users, and rapidly scale both a digital and physical product throughout the United States. The opportunity with this role is to be responsible for both the product strategy and operational delivery of a fast-moving product that can quickly process hundreds of millions of dollars of payroll.

This role will report to our Director of Product.

What you will do:

  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams including engineering, sales, and customer operations to maneuver initiatives through the complete product development lifecycle from concept to launch.
  • Lead the day to day feature development in partnership with engineering to strengthen our pay card product offering based on learnings from our user base.
  • Manage your product like a GM with a focus on how to improve metrics like awareness, attach rate, adoption, and customer retention.
  • Own prioritization for your domain; clearly communicate reasoning to stakeholders.
  • Learn and empathize with our customers/users; become an internal evangelist for their needs.
  • Drive the process of implementing our product in new customer segments and geographies.
  • Onsite end user interviews and observations

Who we are looking for:

  • 5+ years of product management experience; preferably with 2+ years in consumer facing applications where you led product growth initiatives.
  • You have a bias towards action and are comfortable managing multiple, competing priorities in a fast-paced environment.
  • Extensive experience analyzing user data via a product analytics platform like Amplitude to create experiments that seek to increase product adoption and utilization.
  • Demonstrate strong business acumen with articulate written and verbal communication.
  • Willing to travel at least 20-25% of the time and meet customers face-to-face.
  • Nice-to-have skills of a strong candidate: Spanish speaking, UI and UX design capabilities for both mobile and web.

 

How We Hire

Our interview process is an in-depth opportunity to get to know each other. The PickTrace team is so small, every single person is a significant addition to the organization and the culture, and we care a lot about a great mutual fit – which means that we hope you become well acquainted with us, too! 

Throughout our application and interview process, we strive to be in clear and regular communication with applicants. Our goal is that you never wait more than 1 week to receive an update or a request to proceed from the PickTrace team. If you have any questions, our co-founders, executive team, and team members are all happy to connect with you.

Intro Call and Video Interview

Before we even begin speaking with people, we build a clear rubric for the job expectations and candidate requirements. Candidates whose experiences seem like a great fit start with an introductory phone interview (30 minutes) and then a longer video interview that gets more technical or in-depth (1 hour).

Portfolio

After that, we may go briefly off-script and ask for work examples or case studies that you may have mentioned in the first couple of calls. You should also feel free to ask us for informational chats with team members, since you deserve to meet your future colleagues and team leaders as well!

Virtual “On-site” Visit

The next and biggest step for you in our interview process is the virtual on-site, which may range from 4 to 7 hours depending on the role. This can be a full-day interview or we can break it out into multiple days. The goal is to provide you the opportunity to hop on a whiteboard, brainstorm together and share your skills with the hiring manager and team mates. For example, engineers will do architecture and coding sessions at this stage. These sessions will mimic real-life team meetings to the extent possible, because so much of our work at such an early stage is hands-on collaborative brainstorming.

Reference Checks

Our final step is references. We weigh these extremely heavily, perhaps unconventionally so, because the best indicator of what kind of colleague someone will be is what kind of colleague they have been. We dive into in-depth conversations with managers, reports, and peers from your career. People and culture matter to us, and we hope that they matter to you, too.
