Senior Product Manager

Kettle designs digital products with soul, for some of the most ambitious consumer brands in the world. Our work lives at the intersection of product thinking and brand storytelling; products that are just as considered in feeling as they are in function.

We are looking for a Senior Product Manager to join our Product team. In this role, you'll work across the full product lifecycle, from vision setting and establishing a roadmap through product execution; partnering closely with creative and development teams to define, design, and ship great work. You'll bring a human-centered point of view to everything you touch, and a bias toward clarity that helps teams move well together.

Candidates in the San Francisco Bay area preferred due to client location.

Candidates should have:

• Experience in product management, strategy, or a related discipline, with a track record of contributing across the full product lifecycle in an agency or product environment
• The ability to gather and prioritize requirements, translate stakeholder needs into clear product definitions (user stories, JTBD, acceptance criteria), and keep the team oriented to what matters
• Experience contributing to product roadmaps and partnering with production on sprint planning and execution
• Comfort working with analytics, user research, and qualitative inputs to evaluate product performance and inform iteration
• Experience working across both B2B and B2C product contexts, with the ability to adapt to different categories, business models, and user types
• Strong communication skills. You can represent the product strategy clearly to internal teams and client partners, present work with confidence, and incorporate feedback to sharpen the outcome
• Fluency with AI tools as part of your product practice. You use them to move faster, think more broadly, and bring sharper inputs to the work.
• You’re actively curious about how AI is changing product experiences and what it means to design for AI-enabled features and surfaces
• Experience contributing to primary research (interviews, usability testing, ethnography) in partnership with UX or strategy leads

We’d like to know that you can:

• Manage the backlog, feature prioritization, and iterative release planning in a way that keeps the team focused and moving
• Be a reliable, proactive presence on a cross-functional team, a clear communicator who helps resolve ambiguity and keeps work on track
• Build a working understanding of client business goals and user needs, and use that understanding to filter and inform decisions throughout a project
• Partner with design and engineering to translate strategy into features that ship, on time, on brief, and at a high standard of quality
• Adapt across different working styles and engagement types, from focused delivery sprints to early-stage definition and exploration

The target range of base compensation for this role is $120,000–$150,000. Actual compensation is influenced by a wide array of factors including but not limited to skill set, level of experience, and location.
