Ready to build products in a truly product-driven company? Are you passionate about using technology to change the world?

 

Groupon’s mission is to become the daily habit in local commerce and fulfill our purpose of building strong communities through thriving small businesses by connecting people to a vibrant, global marketplace for local services, experiences and goods. In the process, we’re positively impacting the lives of millions of customers and merchants globally. Even with thousands of employees spread across multiple continents, we still maintain a culture that inspires innovation, rewards risk-taking and celebrates success.

 

As a part of Groupon’s Engineering team, our Product teams are the glue holding our technical projects together. While they might look different in each part of the organization, they all use a variety of different technologies and development practices to liaise and build groundbreaking local commerce products used by millions of people. Depending on the team you jump into, you’ll have a healthy mix of both technical and business-facing responsibilities, allowing you the autonomy to be both analytical and creative.

 

As an Associate Technical Product Manager, you are effectively the liaison within the team, working with designers, developers and senior management to guide projects through to fruition and help our teams build successful products. In this role, you’ll be working on projects that will have a direct impact on large-scale initiatives and be able to see your hard work pay off quickly. You’ll work in a small, independent team and use agile practices - giving you the perfect hybrid between the feel and impact opportunity of a startup, with the assets of a public company.

 

We're a "best of both worlds" kind of company. We're big enough to have resources and scale, but small enough that a single person has a surprising amount of autonomy and can make a meaningful impact. We're curious, fun, a little intense, and kind of obsessed with helping local businesses thrive. Does that sound like a compelling place to work?

 

You’ll spend time on the following:

  • Building relationships with different people across all business organizations while exploring different functional areas of Groupon

  • Partnering with a Senior Product Manager, you'll run the day to day of how to execute the Product piece while building out the road map and vision until you're ready to own it yourself

  • Working with business partners to write designs for features through understanding other teams' needs

  • Driving and owning the vision and strategy for your area of expertise

  • Shipping your ideas and building out features that may go live on our site

 

We’re excited about you if you have:

  • Currently enrolled in an BS, MS or PhD program in Computer Science, Software Engineering or similar field

  • Deep analytical skills, both quantitative and qualitative, and a track record of applying these to inform effective and successful business decisions driving a customer-centered product strategy

  • You’re a self-starter who can execute in a fast-paced environment with minimal direction

  • Ability to work collaboratively in an environment that promotes constant team communication

  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills

  • You have an excellent understanding of product development and how web and mobile technologies work

  • Ability to think quickly and creatively about problems and develop efficient solutions

  • Obsession with understanding and meeting the needs of the customer

  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and expertise in balancing complex, highly parallelized, rapidly-moving projects

  • Incredibly curious, collaborative, energetic, and creative
