Essential Job Duties
If we asked your coworkers to describe you, they’d respond “humble,” “hungry,” “outcome driven,” and “great at building relationships.” You have a knack for defining problems, falling in love with them, and then iterating on solutions to solve them.
At work, you’re able to speak confidently with your technical counterparts and are quick to document, whiteboard, and collaborate with all areas within the organization. Tell us a few stories working with Sales, CX, Design, Engineering, and other Product teams on at least a few product launches. What went well? What didn’t? How will you take that into your work going forward?
Join our Core Products team working on employee onboarding, offboarding, and lifecycle events within the HR Platform organization at BambooHR, where you'll play a pivotal role in enhancing one of our most crucial product experiences.

This position requires the ability to manage multiple complex solutions simultaneously and effectively communicate progress and insights to stakeholders across the organization. If you are a product manager with a passion for frameworks, shared componentry, and a desire to make a significant impact, this opportunity is perfect for you.

- Clearly define and prioritize problems that matter most to customers — turning insights into actionable opportunities.
- Drive clarity and alignment across cross-functional teams, ensuring that strategy, roadmap, and execution reflect shared priorities.
- Deliver solutions that balance long-term product evolution with near-term impact, using data and experimentation to learn quickly.
- Regularly evaluate product effectiveness through qualitative and quantitative feedback, identifying opportunities to improve usability and satisfaction.
- Foster a strong, collaborative triad with engineering and design, empowering each function to do its best work.
- Communicate decisions, rationale, and tradeoffs clearly to stakeholders at every level — driving alignment without slowing momentum.
- Leverage AI tools and principles to enhance discovery, definition, design, and delivery throughout the product development lifecycle.
