Job description

Tremendous is the fast, free, flexible way to send bulk payouts to people in over 200 countries. Over 10,000 companies ranging from mom-and-pops to Google, MIT, and United Way have sent over $1 billion, saving 15 hours a month on average.

In both our product and our workplace, we’re intentional about making work more efficient, flexible, and fulfilling. Tremendous is a fully remote, high-documentation, low-meeting culture, which means more time for what matters in both your professional and personal life.

Our customers, who include marketers, UX researchers, HR teams and nonprofits, rave about how quick and easy it is to use Tremendous — check the ratings on G2. Yet there’s a lot of complexity under the hood, including over 2,000 redemption options and plenty of banking infrastructure. This duality makes working here a fun challenge.

Tremendous is profitable and growing without outside investors. Join us before the next international offsite!

About the role

We’re looking for a Senior PM to join our team. The product team currently consists of our co-founder (who has been a Head of Product in a past role) and three senior PMs.

To start, you will partner with other PMs on in-flight projects across the org. As the team expands (we're at ~25 engineers and growing), we'll look to seat this PM with a dedicated team.

You will

• Manage our product roadmap. You’ll be working with stakeholders to help figure out what to build and when to build it. When there’s uncertainty, you’ll be expected to figure it out and generate clarity for the rest of the team.

• Frame up problems. You’ll be expected to explain what problems we are solving and why. This helps our engineers and designers understand how to solve those problems.

• Conduct research and analysis. In order to frame those problems well, you’ll need to collect supporting evidence–from user interviews, market research, and competitive analysis.

• Work with designers and engineers to devise solutions. PMs set requirements and then work with designers and engineers to select appropriate solutions.

• Collaborate without meetings. Tremendous has an async, non-meeting culture. This can be tricky for a PM who has previously been accustomed to doing work in meetings, which is the default at most organizations. Expect to do a lot of writing!

• Persuade with a light touch. Not everyone will agree on priorities; it’s the PM’s responsibility to help drive to a decision in a way that everyone feels included in the process.

• Report back on what’s working. Once we ship, you’ll be responsible for helping the team understand the impact of their work.

You have

• 6+ years building and shipping web applications as a designer, engineer, or product manager at tech companies.

• 2+ years as a PM in startup environments (growth-stage companies).

• Excellent product intuition, refined through years of delivering products to users, that lets you identify the appropriate solution for a problem.

• Solid design judgment that helps you collaborate with our design team by providing feedback on mockups.

• Enough technical chops to understand potential technical approaches to problems and to collaborate engineering managers.

• The ability to take a long-term strategy and a big feature backlog and translate that into roadmaps.

• The ability to manage uncertainty and ambiguity well. You can make decisive calls without enough information.

• Empathy for users and a desire to talk to them about their problems.

• Outstanding communication skills.

• Strong written communication skills. We’re a documentation-first culture.

• Desire and ability to work autonomously and drive your work. Tremendous is not a great fit for people who default to waiting for instructions.

• High empathy. You care about your teammates and our users. You can put yourself in their shoes.

What's cool about the role

• You'll work at a company growing quickly yet sustainably. We’re profitable with plenty more opportunity ahead. That’s good news for your career growth.

• Competitive pay and benefits. For this role, base salary ranges from $180,000 to $260,000.

• We're a remote company. Work from wherever you want in the Americas.

• Smart people and a great culture. See ourcompany handbook.
