Varsity Tutors is Hiring a Remote Principal Product Manager

Varsity Tutors, a Nerdy company, is looking for data-driven, customer-focused, learning-obsessed individuals to join us on our mission to help people learn. We’re seeking an experienced Principal Product Manager, ideally with customer-facing experience, who can tackle a wide range of opportunities and problems. The first areas of focus will include student experience within on-demand, 1-1 tutoring, and classes and driving trial and adoption of these multiple formats. The Principal Product Manager will work with audience-focused teams to identify additional areas of opportunity that, in time, can augment existing “ways to learn.” The ideal candidate is adept at breaking down complex problems, crafting effective solutions, and working with cross-functional teams--engineering, design, marketing, sales, operations, and data science--to improve customer experience and deliver business results. Successful Principal Product Managers have strong analytical and business acumen, are driven by intellectual curiosity and customer focus, are energized by creating order out of ambiguity, and are skilled communicators who can lead teams to see the future, then execute with excellence.

The Principal Product Manager needs to have a strong data orientation, be willing to roll up sleeves to GSD, be scrappy when needed in order to learn quickly, execute with relative autonomy, and balance this bias for action with ensuring decisions and plans are impactful and move us in the right strategic direction. We believe one of the most important functions of a Principal Product Manager is to determine which opportunities deserve to be pursued given our goals and strategic direction; be clearly and compellingly communicate why, when, and how to pursue these opportunities; then work relentlessly to drive the right progress. Using customer insights, data, and information, Principal Product Managers at Varsity Tutors apply the scientific method to product development: observation - question - hypothesis and prediction - test - measure - learn - iterate.
