Why this role exists

The core product has no dedicated PM. Experience work is scattered across non-product teams and has long been aimed at “reduce negative feedback volume” — a defect metric with no established causal link to retention. This role is not just another shipper; it's someone who defines the right goal for experience work
.

What you’ll own
  • Feature definition, PRDs, and cross-team delivery for the core News Break app
  • The For You feed experience —
    including how and when local verticals enter the main feed
  • Rebuilding quality triage: rank experience issues by predicted churn impact
    , not complaint volume
  • Scaling directions the Lead PM has validated
  • Managing one existing PM
What we’re looking for
  • 5–8 years in consumer product with a solid shipping record
  • You can quote real post-launch numbers — and explain the gap versus your forecast
  • Preferred: feed or recommendation experience on a large-DAU product
  • You run your own analysis and design your own experiments
  • You've killed features on purpose — deciding what not to build matters as much as what to build
  • People management experience
First 90 days
  • Produce a list of experience issues ranked by predicted churn impact
  • Replace “negative feedback volume” as the operating goal
  • Close the loop end-to-end on one or two high-priority issues
