Job description

Keep every product on time, on budget, and on everyone's radar, from first concept to launch.

We're looking for a product-focused Project Manager to keep product development organized for a consumer products e-commerce business. You'll own costing, pricing, timelines, and project plans. You'll also be the bridge between our China-based product team and Sales, so everyone knows where each product stands and when it's coming. This is a product development role, not a software, IT, or factory operations role.

Location:

Colombia - Fully Remote

Your Mission: Day to Day Responsibilities

• Own and maintain the product cost calculator, including materials, manufacturing, packaging, freight, and landed costs.
• Build and update pricing models to support margin targets and sales decisions.
• Create and manage product development timelines and Gantt charts across multiple projects.
• Coordinate daily with the China team to track samples, approvals, revisions, and production milestones.
• Keep Sales updated on product status, launch dates, costs, and changes.
• Flag delays, cost changes, and risks early, and propose solutions.
• Organize project documentation, trackers, and status reports.
• Run regular check-ins to keep stakeholders aligned and decisions moving.
• Improve processes and tools so product development runs smoothly as the portfolio grows.

Your Toolbox: Skills to be Successful

• Project management experience in consumer product development, ideally physical goods sold through retail or e-commerce.
• Experience managing product timelines from concept through sampling, production, and launch.
• Strong understanding of product costing, pricing, and margins.
• Advanced Excel or Google Sheets skills: you're comfortable building and maintaining cost models.
• Experience building Gantt charts and project plans (Smartsheet, Monday, Asana, MS Project, or similar).
• Experience working with overseas suppliers or manufacturing teams, especially in China, is a strong plus.
• Excellent written and verbal communication; you keep busy teams informed without being asked.
• Highly organized and comfortable juggling many products at different stages.
• Background in software, IT, or localization project management alone is not a fit for this role.
