How we’ll deliver success:
Shippo R&D is seeking a Staff Technical Product Manager to develop and execute a strategic roadmap for our Tracking, Address, and Reconciliation products.
Our address API ensures a high deliverability of packages, and our tracking API makes sure it gets there on time. Our reconciliation service ensures Carriers, Shippo, and Customers are billed and paid quickly and accurately. These are highly technical product areas that share the same foundation:
- Deep knowledge of parcel carrier data
- A customer-centric abstraction of complex carrier concepts
- A clear understanding of customer availability, throughput, and latency requirements
- Empathy for everyone who interacts with our products, including developers, shippers, consumers, and internal operations.
You will be a champion for our shippers and external developers who integrate to our APIs. Your strategy will be driven by customer empathy, business acumen, and a high bar for quality. You will define success metrics rooted in customer adoption, business impact, and service quality.
You’ll solve real customer problems with big impact. You will make difficult prioritization decisions based on customer and business impact, known variables and unknown assumptions, and awareness of overall company strategy. You will develop a strong strategic view of our suite of API products and how they must change in order to maximize value.
Your teammates will rely on you to keep everyone aligned. You will leverage effective communication skills to align individuals of all levels at Shippo, across carrier partnerships, customer success, strategic partnerships, and our senior leadership team. You will engage deeply with your engineering team to hold a high quality bar for our products, identify the biggest opportunities to improve our service quality, and trade those opportunities off effectively against customer and carrier feature requests.
