Product Manager

Job Description:

- We’re building an AI‐first suite of edtech products—spanning teaching, learning, assessment, practice, and
partner management—that helps hundreds of thousands of students upskill in latest technologies. As a
Product Manager at Nxt Wave, you’ll turn strategy into Roadmap Milestones and ship high‐quality
experiences across web and mobile that improve learning outcomes and business results.

What you’ll do
Strategy & Discovery
Translate company/category strategy into a clear product narrative and Milestones.
Drive customer discovery (students, mentors, employers): interviews, JTBDs, journey maps.
Size opportunities with data; run competitive scans and build‐vs‐buy assessments.

AI‐first Product Delivery
Ship features that leverage LLMs/agents, retrieval, and automation; write crisp PRDs/DRDs.
Partner with Engineering, Design, and Data to deliver in short cycles with strong rollout hygiene.
Maintain backlog clarity and sequencing across multiple initiatives in a pod.

Metrics, Insights & Growth
Define success metrics; instrument events; build dashboards and run A/B tests.
Analyze cohorts, funnels, and retention; translate insights into iteration plans.
Partner with Growth on activation, engagement, and SEO/content strategies where relevant.

Stakeholder & GTM Alignment
Work tightly with Business Owners (P&L), CX/Support, and Marketing to land impact.
Create crisp storytelling docs for decisions; drive cross‐functional alignment.
Enable internal teams with release notes and playbooks; coordinate GTM handoff (CX, Success,
Marketing).

Quality, Risk & Ethics
Own pre‐launch checklists, QA gates, and safe rollouts (guardrails, fallback paths), then drive
post‐launch adoption (enablement, internal comms, training, instrumentation) to hit adoption
targets.
Ensure learner privacy, data safety, and ethical use of AI in features.

EdTech nuance
Incorporate pedagogy, assessment integrity, and accessibility.
Collaborate with Curriculum/Content teams on content pipelines and standards.

Qualifications
Must‐haves
3+ years of product management experience with end‐to‐end ownership (0→1 and/or 1→n).
Proven end‐to‐end ownership of meaningful product work (0→1 and/or 1→n).
Fluency with product analytics (SQL/Sheets + Amplitude/Mixpanel or similar) and experimentation.
Hands‐on exposure to modern AI stacks (OpenAI/Agents, Lang Chain/Lang Graph, vector DBs, RAG)
plus comfort with vibe‐coding tools (Lovable, Replit) and agentic orchestration platforms (e.g.,
CrewAI).
Strong written communication and narrative storytelling; comfort presenting to execs.
Ability to work fast under ambiguity; crisp prioritization and trade‐off decisions.

Nice‐to‐haves
Experience in EdTech, learning science, gamification, or subscription growth.

Experience with platform integrations (payments, identity, CRM) is a plus.
Prior ownership of revenue/cost levers or multi‐team coordination.

Our culture & principles
We are an AI‐first, learner‐obsessed product org. You’ll thrive here if you:
Think in initiatives:  multiple initiatives can run within a pod; you create clarity and sequencing.
Bias to action:  ship small, learn fast, raise the bar each sprint.
Data > opinions:  make decisions from dashboards, experiments, and cohorts.
Write to think : clear narratives beat loud opinions; docs precede meetings.
Own outcomes:  end‐to‐end responsibility—discovery → delivery → rollout → learn.
One team with Biz Owners:  deep partnership with P&L owners and GTM for impact.
Ship safely:  quality gates, observability, and rollback plans are non‐negotiable.
Live our motto:  Work hard. Have fun. Make history.
