Product Manager

We are looking for a Product Manager to join our team! 

While we are a remote first company and this position is remote optional - the ideal candidate for this role will be based in Vancouver, BC.

Do you have experience:

• Managing technical software products from kick-off to ship.

• Shipping products with great user experiences at scale.

• Degree in computer science, math, science degree or software engineering.

• Building relationships with both technical and non-technical stakeholders, whether it be engineering, marketing,  design, sales or customers.

• Thinking of outside of the box solutions. Perhaps you've even run your own business?

• Doing what it takes to ensure your product and team are successful, whether that means writing a QA plan or hunting down the root cause of a user frustration.

Then come join Spare where you will:

• Be part of the Launch team; Launch works closely with Product Design and End User Experience to deliver customers with daily platform updates and a delightful user interface.

• Spend significant time with customers (and customer-facing teams) and observe patterns/trends across their feedback and the larger market.

• Get to the heart of our customer needs. You will have a thorough understanding of what our customers need to be successful using our platform.

• Synthesize product solutions, bringing your unique product vision to the table – solving for “faster horse” problems typical in customer feedback channels.

• Own the end-to-end product lifecycle for features/capabilities – everything from administrators booking trips on Spare to permissions to integrations to fundamental information architecture of our products.

• Be an evangelist for your product movement. We want you to get everyone (internally and externally) excited about what’s next!

• Be accountable for product roadmaps, product strategy, resource allocation, and release cadence.

• Bridge the gap between internal and external stakeholders to define requirements.

Don’t meet every single requirement?

Studies have shown that women and people of colour are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single qualification in the job posting. 

At Spare we are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive environment so we strongly encourage you to apply even if you don't believe you meet every single qualification outlined. We also do our best to ensure all applications received are responded to.

Want to know more?

As a Product Manager at Spare, you’ll be responsible for building and iterating on our product roadmap, based on customer feedback and best practices. You’ll work collaboratively with all Spare stakeholders, including our Design and Engineering teams, customer-facing teams, and customers. You will have a direct hand in ensuring our accessible products continue to have global benefits for individuals, companies, and public transportation. You will be moving the dial on global accessibility and autonomy every day!

We are Spare, a SaaS platform that enables anyone to launch a smart transportation service, bringing efficient on-demand ride-hailing and pooling services to communities across the globe. In the past year, we have grown from 25 people to over 50 and we are continuing to grow!

What do we believe?

At Spare we don't have a strict set of values, but rather guiding principles that represent the most successful people at Spare. They help us describe the type of behaviour that we expect from the people around us. They help us to know how to behave in the organization and what to expect from others.

Remotely or in-office, up to you! Our HQ is in Vancouver, but we also have a home office set up allowance and monthly stipend for a co-working space if you're outside of Metro-Vancouver. Check out more of our benefits on our Careers page.
