Job Description
Hometime’s fast growing product team needs a rock star Product Manager to help feed the machine. We are seeking an experienced PM with some exposure to a RoR stack and a basic technical aptitude to work closely with designers and engineers. You will work with key management to drive PM processes and prioritisation for the growth side of the business, and you will head up research and problem definition with support from other product champions. Ultimately, you will help shape the roadmap and provide engineering with the necessary specifications to move quickly and build the right things.

- You are humble enough to listen, yet confident enough to ask questions and participate in decision making..
- You are an excellent communicator, very diplomatic and are able to get to the core of an issue.
- You are process driven, super organised and are comfortable driving teams to hit milestones and deadlines.
- You’ll thrive in a fast-paced, changeable environment. You’ll enjoy a minimum viable process (and may have built a process), and you look for ways to improve, save time and do things smarter
- You’ll need to be a positive person who is diligent, has a 'never give up’ attitude and loves to focus on the detail.
- Working as a part of a team will be something you love, curious about how to connect with the ideas and knowledge of others to always be building better solutions and outcomes
Experience:
- Preferably at least 2 years experience working in a similar product management role, where you had exposure to being involved in understanding customer problems and working with design and engineering to create a solution and then iterating on it.
