The ideal candidate needs to own one or more products end to end, starting with product roadmap, feature prioritization, collaborating with designer, overlooking engineering sprints, signing off releases, taking care of marketing website, social media, documentation, and customer support.

For each aspect, you will get a specialized team, but you need to work closely as an owner, more like a startup founder.

2. Prioritization: Collaborate with stakeholders to define priorities and manage product backlogs to focus on high-value work that meets customer needs.
3. Collaboration: Work with design, engineering and QA teams to ensure high-quality and timely releases.
4. Marketing: Work with marketing team taking full ownership of product marketing site, social media channels, newsletters, and other custom facing communications.
5. Customer Support: Get involved in customer support to understand customer pain points first hand. Use those feedback and insights to iterate product for a positive user experience.
6. Performance Monitoring: Track the success of product features and initiatives, making adjustments as necessary based on data, customer feedback, or market trends.

Must Haves

1. 2 years experience of owning a product from end to end.
2. Some exposure to the SaaS product development lifecycle.
3. Some exposure to the WordPress ecosystem. Preferably a WordPress product (plugin) development.

Good to Have

1. Marketing a product through content writing, public speaking, social media interactions.
2. Strong technical skills, as products we are building, require complex engineering. While you do not need to code, it's easier to manage product if you understand what's going on under the hood.
