You’ll own defined initiatives from discovery through launch, helping make forms more intuitive, connected, and personalized while contributing to the broader platform roadmap.

• Manage the backlog for your initiatives, balancing user value, effort, and dependencies in partnership with engineering and product leadership.
• Partner with design and engineering to improve mobile usability, reduce form friction, and test changes that increase completion and conversion.
• Work with technical partners on integrations with APIs, CRM systems, data pipelines, analytics, and compliance tools to improve data flow and reliability.
• Explore and test AI capabilities, including agentic workflows, with AI/ML partners to make forms more adaptive and personalized while considering privacy and user trust.
• Define success metrics, monitor results after launch, and use research, funnel analysis, and experiments to guide the next iteration.

Who You’ll Work With

• An analytical approach to product decisions, including defining metrics, interpreting funnel performance, and using experiments or user feedback.
• Clear communication, strong collaboration, and the ability to organize work and surface risks in a fast-paced environment.

What Will Help You Thrive

• Curiosity about user problems, comfort with ambiguity, and a habit of testing assumptions and learning from feedback.
• Experience with forms, workflow tools, customer data platforms, or modernizing legacy systems.
• Familiarity with AI-powered experiences, LLMs, or agentic workflows, and interest in applying them to practical user needs.
