We are hiring a Product Manager to focus on the Search Experience at Rover. This role will be instrumental in giving pet parents the experience and tools they need to find the best-matched care provider. This is an exciting opportunity to drive significant impact on a core customer experience. This role requires a balance of deep customer empathy, analytical acumen, and technical fluency to craft intuitive, high-performing search experiences that deliver tangible improvements for our owners and sitters. You will be responsible for understanding how care providers are deemed the "best match" according to our predictive models, working closely with UX and Data Science to unravel these insights and translate them into user-friendly explanations. You will explore with the team how we might leverage new technologies to streamline the decision-making process for pet parents, and personalize search results. You will also work on improving the overall design and functionality of the experience, enabling searchers to succeed in their customer journey. The ideal candidate will be familiar with the challenges of operating a two-sided marketplace and will have experience building features related to search, such as personalization, recommendations, and information retrieval. This is a hybrid position that has the minimum expectation to work out of our Downtown Seattle Office two days per week on Mondays and Thursdays. For this reason, candidates must be based in the Greater Seattle Area or willing to relocate. Why we'll hire you: You have a true passion for Rover's mission and values - and are highly motivated by the responsibility to drive business growth through the product. You have an unlimited curiosity, always probing for the "why" behind user behavior, market shifts, and emerging technologies. You know how to independently leverage quantitative and qualitative data to solve ambiguous problems, make decisions and drive growth. You never hesitate to roll up your sleeves and tackle something hands-on, you persevere when others fall away. You never stop pushing towards clarity and delivery and bring your cross-functional partners along with you. You maintain an obsession over the needs of our owners and sitters and a dedication to solving problems. You are proficient with AI applications in your own workflows and are looking to leverage new technologies to solve customer problems with ease and efficiency. Bonus points if you are familiar with the complex dynamics at work in consumer marketplaces.
