Description

About Houzz
Houzz is the leading home renovation and design platform in the world. We have a highly engaged community of over 40 million unique monthly users who leverage our technologies to find inspiration for their next project, connect with over 2.1 million home design professionals and discover products in the Houzz Shop.
About the Role
Houzz is seeking a product manager to expand and grow the Houzz Trade Program, which is focused on meeting the purchasing needs of home design professionals. While our Marketplace serves consumers, it also connects professionals (interior designers, general contractors, etc.) with vendors to facilitate purchasing of home goods. This represents a very large and untapped segment of the overall market and Houzz is uniquely positioned to deliver a platform to help professionals buy.
We are looking for an execution-oriented product manager who can mix creative product instincts with the ability to systematically scale a business. The ideal candidate has experience working on a revenue-generating product, but also has a user-centric mindset to create new experiences that will drive growth across mobile and web. Unlike some strictly user-focused roles, your success will also be tied to the overall performance of the business. In this role, you will build a roadmap of ideas aimed at growing the eCommerce spend of professionals on our platform as well as building tools that allow our sales and account management teams to perform efficiently.
What You'll Do
  • Collaborate with product, engineering, and design to create and manage the roadmap for growing professional eCommerce revenue on Houzz 
  • Lead a focused engineering and design team to ruthlessly prioritize potential projects based on impact, execute rapidly to find things that work, and iterate on and launch promising ideas
  • With marketing teams, craft the product experience and policies that will lock-in professional purchasing on our platform
  • Partner with sales and operational teams to drive revenue and build program capabilities that deliver value for professionals; this may involve launching “offline” products
  • Work hand-in-hand with analytics teams to analyze results and synthesize findings
  • Identify key improvements across various conversion funnels and use several tools to drive positive results (email, notifications, on-site experiences, etc.)
  • Own and operate against quarterly revenue goals
  • Clearly communicate product strategy in a structured way to socialize your roadmap and report results
  • At a Minimum, We'd Like You to Have
  • A technical background, including but not limited to a degree in Computer Science
  • A minimum of 5 years of experience in Product Management at a consumer internet company with a proven track record of successful, consumer-facing product launches that touch millions of users
  • Strong product instincts; you intuitively understand why product ideas will succeed
  • A fundamentally data-driven and technical mindset; you have the ability to collect and analyze data from a variety of sources, identify key insights, spot optimization opportunities, and inform product decisions
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with an ability to communicate with a wide range of team members and job functions
  • A bias towards action and experimentation
  • Ideally, You'll Also Have
  • Work experience on a product that directly generated revenue
  • Domain experience in eCommerce is a plus, but not required. We’re looking for smart and motivated self-starters who can learn quickly
