Senior Product Manager - Expansion

Preply; United States; Remote; USD 130,000 - 170,000; Full time

Job summary

Preply is expanding beyond language learning by launching a brand-new vertical focused on non-language subjects. You will own strategy and roadmap for this new area, shaping the tutor and learner experience from top of funnel through delivery, in collaboration with design, UX research, data science, and engineering.

As a Senior Product Manager, you’ll operate in a fast-paced, high-ambition environment, balancing evolving roadmaps with rigorous experimentation and data-driven decision-making.

Qualifications

• Senior product management experience, ideally having built products 0-to-10 and 10-to-100 in a fast-evolving or ambiguous environment.
• Comfort with a roadmap that will keep evolving; NLS is a young, high-priority bet, not a mature, steady-state product area.
• Ability to think across the full tutor–learner ecosystem, and beyond your own product surface.

Responsibilities

• Take a 0-to-1 product from ambition to reality: own part of the strategy and roadmap for non-language subjects.
• Shape the end-to-end tutor and learner experience for a brand-new vertical, starting from the top of the funnel and building outward.
• Partner closely with a designer, UX research, data science, and engineering to turn that strategy into shipped product.
• Stay scrappy, and think beyond your own product surface, across the wider ecosystem, both inside and outside product (marketing, supply, and more).
• Prioritize among competing opportunities and clearly communicate the reasoning behind the calls you make.
• Use qualitative and quantitative signals, including experiments, user research, and data, to validate your bets and course-correct.
• Act as the internal champion for NLS, building the case that Preply can grow a new vertical the way it grew languages.
• Define success for your area and use it to guide iteration, celebrate wins, and drive learning for what comes next.

Job description

We power people's progress. At Preply, we're all about creating life-changing learning experiences. We help people discover the magic of the perfect tutor, craft a personalised learning journey, and stay motivated to keep growing. Our approach is human-led, tech-enabled - and it's creating real impact.

We've just reached unicorn status with a $150M Series D, accelerating our vision to transform education through human-led, AI-enhanced learning. Today, 100,000+ tutors teach 90+ languages to learners in 180 countries - and we're only getting started. As a category-defining company, we're shaping what the future of learning looks like at global scale. Every Preply lesson sparks change, fuels ambition, and drives progress that matters. Joining Preply means helping define the future of education at global scale, and building something that truly matters for millions of people, every day.

Meet the team! As part of Preply's Expansion program, you'll get to do something rare at this stage of a company: launch and scale a brand-new vertical from the ground up. Our mission is to grow Preply beyond core language learning starting with non-language subjects (NLS), which already make up a meaningful share of our business, backed by dedicated product investment that only started this year. You'll double down on that investment, working with a designer, UX research, data science support, and a set of engineers, in a startup-within-a-scaleup: high autonomy, high visibility with leadership, and one of the most exciting 0-to-1 opportunities in the company.

What you'll be doing:

• Take a 0-to-1 product from ambition to reality: own part of the strategy and roadmap for non-language subjects, and help define what Preply becomes beyond language learning.


• Shape the end-to-end tutor and learner experience for a brand-new vertical, starting from the top of the funnel and building outward.


• Partner closely with a designer, UX research, data science, and engineering to turn that strategy into shipped product.


• Stay scrappy, and think beyond your own product surface, across the wider ecosystem, both inside and outside product (marketing, supply, and more).


• Prioritize among competing opportunities and clearly communicate the reasoning behind the calls you make.


• Use qualitative and quantitative signals, including experiments, user research, and data, to validate your bets and course-correct.


• Act as the internal champion for NLS, building the case that Preply can grow a new vertical the way it grew languages, and put your fingerprints on Preply's next chapter.


• Define success for your area and use it to guide iteration, celebrate wins, and drive learning for what comes next.

What you need to succeed:

• Senior Product Management experience, ideally having built products 0-to-10 and 10-to-100, in a fast-evolving or ambiguous environment.


• Comfort with a roadmap that will keep evolving; NLS is a young, high-priority bet, not a mature, steady-state product area.
