Job summary

Stellic in San Mateo, CA is seeking an experienced product manager to own the Explore product from discovery to shipping. You will define the problem space, align with university partners, and build a roadmap that scales across institutions.

You'll work daily with US and Pakistan engineering teams, shape architecture, and translate complex transfer requirements into durable product decisions while maintaining ownership across the lifecycle.

Qualifications

  • 6+ years of PM experience with growth in scope and ownership over time.
  • True 0→1 experience — defined a problem, built conviction, shipped something real.
  • Comfort with ambiguity — structure discovery and make directional calls with incomplete information.
  • Strong partner instincts — excel in customer conversations and translate input into product decisions, not just features.
  • Technical depth without coding — comfortable in architecture discussions and how decisions constrain the future.
  • Ownership mindset — in an early-stage product, everything is your problem; you take charge.
  • Clear, engaging communication — with university partners, engineers, and leadership.

Responsibilities

  • Lead end-to-end discovery and roadmap for the Explore product.
  • Collaborate with university partners and internal leadership to earn trust and align on priorities.
  • Work daily with US and Pakistan engineering teams on architecture, trade-offs, and sequencing.
  • Identify high-leverage problems and translate insights into scalable product decisions.
  • Turn transfer rules and requirements into reusable solutions that scale across institutions.
