There are 2.7 billion hourly workers, making up 80% of the global workforce, but this market has been heavily underserved by technology and deserves better. Workstream has been purpose-built for the hourly workforce from day one so that these businesses and their employees can thrive.\nOur customers include leading brands from multiple sectors, including Burger King, Carl's Jr./Hardee's, IHOP, KFC, and Culvers. We are a high growth series B company and quickly expanding our product portfolio to deliver on our vision. We are backed by legendary VCs and industry experts like Founders Fund, BOND, and Coatue.\nGrow With Us\nWe are seeking a highly customer-obsessed, strategic, and execution-driven Senior Product Manager to own key product areas across Workstream's platform, with a particular focus on our hiring products and experiences.\nIn this role, you will define your product area's strategy, roadmap, and long-term vision-owning everything from customer discovery and hypothesis development to execution, iteration, and measurable business outcomes. You will be responsible for shaping the product story, defining success metrics, and driving investments that improve how hourly businesses attract, hire, and retain their workforce.\nThis role is ideal for someone who has deep experience in hiring, recruiting, or talent technology and thrives in fast-paced startup environments. You should love spending time with customers and users and be equally comfortable thinking strategically and diving into the details to get products shipped.\nYou will work cross-functionally across Engineering, Design, Sales, Customer Success, Business Development, and Leadership to identify opportunities, prioritize resources, and bring impactful products to market.\nWhat You'll Do\nOwn product strategy, roadmap, and execution for a core Workstream product area, with a focus on hiring and recruiting experiences.\nDefine product vision, north star metrics, and success criteria aligned with company priorities.\nSpend significant time with customers, candidates, recruiters, hiring managers, and customer-facing teams to identify patterns, pain points, and emerging market opportunities.\nLeverage your experience in recruiting and hiring workflows to identify opportunities to make hiring more efficient, effective, and scalable for hourly businesses.\nPartner closely with Sales, Customer Success, Business Development, and Operations to gather business requirements and translate them into scalable product solutions.\nBuild and manage relationships with strategic external partners, including job boards, recruiting platforms, integrations, and other ecosystem partners.\nConduct market, competitive, and customer research to develop and validate product hypotheses.\nTake a hypothesis-driven, experimentation-first approach to product discovery and iteration.\nWrite detailed product specifications, user stories, and UX requirements that enable high-quality execution.\nCollaborate closely with Engineering and Design teams to ship products quickly while balancing speed, quality, and long-term scalability.\nBe highly resourceful and pragmatic in solving customer problems-whether through automation, integrations, operational workflows, or lightweight solutions.\nDrive alignment across Product, Engineering, Design, GTM, and executive stakeholders.\nPresent product strategy, roadmap progress, customer insights, and business impact across all levels of the organization.\nUse AI and emerging technologies to accelerate product discovery, development, and execution.\nWhat We're Looking For\n5-7+ years of Product Management experience, ideally in SaaS, growth, marketplace, or startup environments.\n Deep experience in hiring, recruiting, talent acquisition, or recruiting technology is required.\nStrong understanding of the recruiting and hiring lifecycle, including candidate acquisition, job distribution, applicant tracking, screening, interviewing, hiring workflows, and/or onboarding.\nProven track record of owning product initiatives from concept through launch (0→1) and iteration (1→N), incorporating both Go-To-Market and PLG motions.\nExperience utilizing AI to make yourself and your team more effective.\nStrong understanding of the AI landscape and emerging AI tools and applications.\nExperience working in a fast-paced, scaling startup, typically under 500 employees, or demonstrated ability to thrive in high-growth environments.\nStrong customer empathy and genuine enthusiasm for talking directly with users and customers.\nExcellent analytical, strategic, and hypothesis-driven problem-solving skills.\nExceptional written and verbal communication skills with the ability to influence cross-functional stakeholders.\nStrong partnership skills across Engineering, Design, Sales, Customer Success, Marketing, and Operations.\nAbility to move quickly, prioritize effectively, and operate with resourcefulness in ambiguous environments.\nExperience writing product specs, user stories, and translating business needs into product execution.\nComfortable balancing strategic thinking with hands-on execution and operating at both the 10,000-foot and 10-foot levels.\nBonus Points\nExperience building products for hourly workers, restaurants, retail, hospitality, or other frontline industries.\nExperience with HR tech, payroll, scheduling, workforce management, or local business software.\nFamiliarity with job board ecosystems, recruiting integrations, or external platform partnerships.\nExperience with AI-powered recruiting or hiring products.\nExperience working with offshore or distributed engineering teams.\nExperience with growth product management or marketplace products.\nExperience with one or more of the following product categories: ATS, HRIS, Payroll, Scheduling, Time & Attendance, or Workforce Management.\nWorking at Workstream\nWe operate with urgency, ownership, and a growth mindset.\nThis is not a traditional 9-to-5 role-we value accountability, flexibility, and getting results.\nIf you thrive in high-growth environments and are passionate about building from scratch, we'd love to connect.\nMust be willing to report to the office up to 5 days a week.\nWhat We Offer\nA mission-driven and value-based company dedicated to empowering deskless workers and local businesses\nAn early employee opportunity at a Series B hyper-growth startup; work with the founding team and industry veterans to accelerate your career\nCompetitive salary and
