What We're Looking For
Agate is seeking a Manager of Product Management to lead a team responsible for requirements definition, backlog management, and delivery coordination across our platform and project-based work. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who thrives in fast-moving environments, brings structure to complexity, and knows how to turn business needs into clear, actionable work that helps engineering teams deliver.
This role is ideal for a builder. You are energized by solving hard problems, comfortable operating with limited direction, and motivated by the opportunity to create practical, repeatable processes in an environment that is still evolving. You may already be leading a small team, or you may be a strong senior-level product, product owner, or business analysis professional ready to step into management.
Our platform serves State, Local, and Education customers, and we are continuing to mature our product delivery model as we scale. The right candidate will be excited by the chance to improve how work moves from intake to execution, strengthen collaboration across teams, and help build the structure needed for the next stage of growth.
