Product Manager

Fully remote role!

Who we are

PartsTech is an automotive technology company. We help repair shops find the right parts fast. One search shows you live inventory and wholesale pricing from all of a shop’s parts suppliers.

Repair shops rely on us to provide them with access to the necessary parts inventory to keep vehicles moving through their bays as quickly as possible.

How we run things

We always start with our product vision: we make it fast and easy for auto repair shops to find the right parts across all of their suppliers with one search.

As a Product Manager you will report to the VP of Product and you will be a part of the product team which currently consists of product management, technical product management, product design, and user research. You will own at least one major area of the product or overall ecosystem. You’re responsible for identifying problems worth solving, prioritizing, contributing to the roadmap, and owning the execution and delivery.

We already have great product designers. We are not looking for someone who wants to own design, but instead contributes where applicable to the design thinking process.You will be paired with a product designer where together you will help shape the future of the product. Our engineering team is awesome. Whatever we come up with they push to make it happen (just check out our product and you’ll see).

Where we’re located

We have strong roots in Massachusetts and Connecticut, but we’re a global team. You can expect to be working with team members throughout the U.S. and overseas.

What we’re looking for

You have a startup mentality. You are completely comfortable in an environment that moves quickly and easily pivots as new product-changing information becomes available. This doesn’t mean we’re changing the roadmap every two weeks, but it does mean we avoid the sunk cost fallacy (we don’t move forward with bad decisions just because we already put time into something). If you don’t meet everything on this list, but feel you are still a competitive candidate for the role, then apply.

• Comfortable working in an OKR environment

• You’re really good at asking why and truly understanding the problem

• You don’t just deliver features, you solve problems that translate into great features

• Experience in delivering incremental value, measuring, then modifying as needed until the desired result is achieved

• Ideally an example of sunsetting at least one feature

• Experience working with data and knowing the difference between being data informed vs data driven (we are more of a data informed environment)

• Experience in SaaS and E-commerce is preferred

• Experience with consumer products or B2B products that have delivered an experience expected of a consumer product

• Experience with e-commerce search and results (or different search with same level of complexity)

• Very familiar with design thinking and can give clear examples of how it is applied

• Has participated in or directly led design sprints

• Works directly with customers weekly to help uncover problems worth solving

• Understands how to correctly work with and utilize a user researcher

All your information will be kept confidential according to EEO guidelines.
