Senior Product Manager

About us:

In today’s software-centric economy, speed is everything. The pressure to deliver more, faster, falls squarely on development teams. Sauce Labs accelerates software development by removing testing as a bottleneck. Our automated testing cloud ensures that the web and mobile applications people use everyday work flawlessly on any browser or device.

Before Sauce, testing took too long, it was tedious and expensive to maintain, and it took focus off of innovation and shifted it to annoying infrastructure issues. With Sauce, innovators accelerate their software development cycles, improve quality, deploy with confidence and reduce costs. We call that automated testing. But you’ll probably just call it awesome.

The Role:

Product Managers at Sauce Labs are the backbone of product strategy. Passionate about our mission to speed application development through continuous testing, Product Managers work across the organization and directly with customers to define the strategies that will make Sauce Labs an invaluable solution for all organizations.

We work in a nascent space where the most advanced software teams thrive. With little precedent to follow, we rely on application telemetry, customer feedback, and market and technology trends to succeed in this rapidly changing market. Our customers are some of the world’s most well known brands who create applications and services for millions of users. They expect innovative and high performance solutions from us, and hitting this mark is the lifeblood of successful Product Managers at Sauce Labs.

Delivering functional experiences today in a competitive market is not enough for end users. They expect a visually pleasing experience that is delightful to engage and come back to. 

In your first assignment, you will be responsible to define, measure and implement a market-leading visual testing solution. It should be a unified, functional and delightful experience for Sauce users. You will understand the personas Sauce is aiming to serve, what are the pain points they have, and define how Sauce can serve them. You will own the evolution and improvement of the product set via rapid trials, measurement and data assessment, and correction. You will need to consolidate and prioritize customer and market-leading requirements with internal development. You will need to facilitate ongoing and frequent customer validation and feature deployment processes to ensure successful product launch.

You Will:

• Develop the product strategy and roadmap for a competitive visual testing offering. You will own the definition of how it integrates to existing testing methods, as well as expand those.
• Provide business-impact oriented decision making and priorities, based on data and OKRs
• Build deep customer understanding via meetings, surveys, analytics, beta testing and usability research
• Draft metrics to ship with your features to measure usage and other success indicators, monitor those metrics, and determine if the work is successful or requires changes
• Build awareness of market, technology and competitive trends. Prepare detailed competitive analysis and benchmarking
• Drive collaboration with other product managers to identify dependencies and leverage synergies
• Collaborate with Product Marketing to prepare release and launch materials, author announcement blog posts, and host webinars when appropriate
• Maintain strong alliances and alignment with all adjacent organizations (presales, sales, support, success, operations etc.) to ensure the success of your product
• Participate in industry and customer events to enhance your understanding of future trends and be the voice of Sauce and your product.

Ideally you will have:

• Proven ability to innovate and deliver a competitive product that delights its users and measure the resulting user adoption 
• A minimum of 4 years of enterprise software product management experience with cloud or SaaS products
• The ability to decompose user challenges and translate them into product solutions
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, and a drive to align with both internal and external stakeholders
