At Stack Overflow, we are obsessed with serving developers. Whether we’re helping developers get answers to their questions, find a new job, or discover documentation, we build products that make millions of developers’ lives better every day. We’re looking for a Product Manager to join two other PM’s working on developer facing products. Working on developer products means leading a wide range of projects around new user acquisition, Q&A expansion and maintenance, user onboarding, and working with our marketing team on user education. In this role you’ll work with a bright team of developers, designers, marketing, and community growth experts to understand how we can best delight our developer customers.
You’ll have the opportunity to do a lot. You can expect during the first year:
First Month: Get onboarded and brought up to speed on our current plans. You’ll spend a lot of time learning about our products, building rapport with the product, marketing, and community teams, and contributing to small features.
Next 3 Months: Acquire a deep understanding through research and testing of our signup and onboarding user flows. You’ll start taking on projects of your own from our backlog. You’ll take an idea and turn it into a prototype, talk to the community on Meta, and pitch your project to the rest of the company.
Next 6 months: You can expect to start taking a leadership role on developer facing projects. You’ll be involved not just in product development, but in defining long term strategy, improving our processes, and planning the roadmap for the team.
We like to work in public. Not only does that mean being open within the company about what the product team is building, we also try and bring the developer community in as soon as we’re able. Some examples of big developer-facing projects we’ve worked on in the past :

We’re looking to hire the best person wherever you are in the world. We work remotely so you can work from home and interact with the team over Google Hangouts and chat, usually during US or European working hours. We have offices in New York, London and Denver, so if you’re in (or want to relocate to) one of those cities you can, and our offices are awesome.
