Today, Gusto offices in Denver, San Francisco, and New York serve more than 300,000 businesses nationwide.

About the Role:
We are seeking a Principal Product Manager to work with our API Infrastructure team. In this role, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our API platform, driving the strategy and execution of our technical infrastructure, documentation, and partner-developer tooling that powers integrations with Gusto. You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, including engineering, design, and business development, to deliver high-quality APIs that enable seamless interactions and drive business growth.
About the Team:
Gusto Embedded Payroll is our newest business unit, driving the next arc of innovation and growth for Gusto. Our mission is to enable any third party SMB platform to build, sell, and serve payroll, however, they wish. Our API offering allows other companies to offer payroll services to their customers inside their app or service. By creating a more seamless payroll experience for SMBs, we will bring Gusto's platform to hundreds of thousands more businesses than those we serve directly. Learn more about our partnerships with Chase and Freshbooks , and what we have learned since we started .
Here's what you'll do day-to-day:

  • Drive product development of critical projects from concept to launch, ensuring timely delivery of high-quality products that improve the products of our Embedded partners
  • Work with developer teams at our partners to develop a deep understanding of their needs and how to enable them to bring payroll to their customers as quickly as possible
  • Partner with Engineering, Design, Data Science, CX, Solution Architects, and other counterparts across Gusto to solve complex cross functional problems
  • Identify emerging technologies and industry trends, especially related to developer products (APIs, SDKs, etc.) to push our product experience to the next level

Here's what we're looking for:

  • 5+ years experience in product management with a focus on API platforms, infrastructure, or developer tools
  • Strong technical background, with a deep understanding of API design principles, RESTful architecture, and web services development
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
  • Proven track record of successfully delivering complex technical products, from concept to launch, in a fast-paced, agile environment
  • Analytical mindset and proficiency in data-driven decision-making, with experience using metrics and analytics tools to drive product insights and improvements

Our cash compensation amount for this role is targeted at $144,000 to $178,000 in Denver & most major metro locations, and $186,000 to $230,000 for San Francisco, New York, & Seattle. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors including candidate location, experience and expertise and may vary from the amounts listed above.
Gusto has physical office spaces in Denver, San Francisco, and New York City. Employees who are based in those locations will be expected to work from the office on designated days approximately 2-3 days per week (or more depending on role). The same office expectations apply to all Symmetry roles, Gusto's subsidiary, whose physical office is in Scottsdale.
Note: The San Francisco office expectations encompass both the San Francisco and San Jose metro areas.
When approved to work from a location other than a Gusto office, a secure, reliable, and consistent internet connection is required.
Our customers come from all walks of life and so do we. We hire great people from a wide variety of backgrounds, not just because it's the right thing to do, but because it makes our company stronger. If you share our values and our enthusiasm for small businesses, you will find a home at Gusto.

We do not discriminate in hiring or any employment decision based on race, color, religion, national origin, age, sex (including pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions), marital status, ancestry, physical or mental disability, genetic information, veteran status, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, or other applicable legally protected characteristic.
