Chicago, Illinois, United States Screencastify Full time

Well, hello there

Screencastify is a leading educational technology company dedicated to improving communication and learning outcomes with video. Our primary focus is on the K-12 education sector in the United States and we are critical in helping scale a teacher and improve student outcomes all while being an easy to use solution. Screencastify is used by over 15M people and is seeking a dynamic and results-oriented Product Manager to join our Squad

Working at Screencastify

At Screencastify, we are results focused and here to improve education globally. This isn't an easy feat but it is important for our future. We value accountability, commitment, and speed. We take our responsibility to our customers very seriously, so when we miss a deadline or slow down, it matters.

We're a competitive culture and strive for speed and innovation. We are problem solvers, don't point fingers and rather enjoy working together to bring solutions to the forefront.

We love a challenge and pushing the world forward with creativity, ingenuity and out of the box thinking. People are everything and we want to work in a company of deeply good people who treat their colleagues exceptionally well. Rule # 1: Be a good person.

About this role

We built the simplest and most reliable screen recorder in the world, but that's only the beginning. Our near future is full of ambitious new goals, features, and products that will enable us to further improve how we provide service to our users and accelerate our already fast growth. ​

We empower our product teams to solve hard problems – customer problems and business problems – in ways that our customers love, yet work for our business. Our product teams are cross-functional and durable, generally composed of a Product Manager, a Product Designer, analysts and several engineers. As a Product Manager, you will be joining Screencastify's Product team and will be working closely with folks across the company to discover, deliver, and bring to market a set of features designed to meet the needs of teachers, educators and students around the world.

Why is this role special?

  1. Build products that will advance education. Schools and districts around the world depend on Screencastify to digitize their curriculum and communication. The need for and benefit of video-based learning has never been more clear than it is now.
  2. Have a massive impact. As part of a small Product team you will be instrumental in the design of features and products that will be seen and used by millions of people.
  3. Work for our users. Above all else, you will be an advocate for our users and will get to know their voices and stories better than most people in the company.
  4. Join us at a magical time. We're bootstrapped, profitable, and support tens of millions of users, which gives us a huge green field to work with. You'll join at the perfect time to shape how we grow from here.

What you'll do:

  • Gather insights about customer needs through a combination of qualitative and quantitative research.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams including Product Designers and Tech teams to translate customer insights into feature ideas that are technically feasible, aligned with business goals, and usable by customers.
  • Drive product adoption through direct user outreach and training customer facing-teams on product capabilities.
  • Frequently test prototypes and feature ideas to eliminate risks before committing to production quality versions.
  • Lead cross-departmental feature release teams to successfully bring your team's work to market.
  • Work with company leaders to define annual and quarterly OKRs. Monitor and report progress on product initiatives.
  • Stay up-to-date on the trends and forces shaping the K-12 market.

Requirements

You're perfect for this role if you:

  • Have 3+ years of experience working on technology/SaaS powered products as a Product Manager.
  • Are deep hands-on and can build products from 0 to 1.
  • Have experience in the Edtech industry.
  • Possess a demonstrated understanding of the techniques and methods of product discovery and product delivery.
  • Have a proven ability to engage with engineers, designers, sales, marketing, support and company leaders in a constructive and collaborative relationship.
  • Love the challenges, hours, and ups-and-downs of start-up life.
  • Are flexible, dedicated, and curious.

This is a Chicago-based hybrid position with 3 days a week in the office.

Benefits

  • Competitive compensation. We take a data-driven approach to our compensation strategy so all employees are paid competitively and fairly.
  • 401k & Profit Sharing plan. We want to invest in present you and future you, which is why we offer a generous 401k match + Profit Sharing plan.
  • Flexible time off (FTO) policy. We recognize that time off to rest and recharge is important. The Flexible Time Off Policy (FTO) is designed for our employees to do just that -- balance work and life while maintaining well-being.
  • Parental leave. Generous paid time off for parents to bond with the newest addition to their family
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance. We cover 100% of employee medical premiums and 50% of employee dental & vision premiums. Plus, all employees receive a free One Medical membership.
