About Convoy:

Convoy is transforming the $800 billion trucking industry. Our mission is to transport the world with endless capacity and zero waste. The industry is huge and so is the opportunity to fundamentally changing the way freight moves across America and beyond for the better.

We are passionate about thinking big and solving really complex problems to make the lives of truck drivers, shippers and other people in freight industry easier through our innovation and technology. There will always be a better, more efficient way to transport goods, and we won’t ever stop inventing it.

Founded in 2015, we’re a mission-driven, well-funded, fast-growing startup, backed by world-class investors, including CapitalG, the growth equity investment fund of Google, and leading industry disruptors, including the founders and CEOs of Amazon, Salesforce, eBay, LinkedIn, Expedia, Dropbox, KKR, Starbucks, and others. We were named one of Washington State’s top places to work, a LinkedIn Top Startup and were the recipient of the GeekWire Next Text Titan in 2018.

What we’re looking for:

Transportation Tech is 15 years behind other evolved two-sided marketplaces like e-commerce or Ad-Tech. We are looking for a PM that can help us shrink that gap.

Are you passionate about working autonomously and being responsible for initiatives end-to-end? You will own the vision, roadmap, and execution of this effort, with the outcomes directly impacting Convoy's overarching strategy. To help you succeed, you will lead a "pod" that can consist of engineers, designers, data scientists, and others which will be embedded on your charter. You'll also be partnering closely with with operations, marketing, sales, and account management.

This is something that doesn't exist so we are looking for a Product Manager that is comfortable going from 0 to 1000: From blank slate and testing first MVPs to scaling at full speed during hyper growth.

Your responsibilities will be:

  • Roadmap & Features: You will own the product roadmap for this initiative
  • Strategy: You will identify the key strategy questions and drive to resolution and alignment with stakeholders
  • Metrics & Experimentation: You will define metrics and goals to drive progress across the team in terms of day to day business as well as experiments

You have the following skills and experiences:

  • PM experience: 8+ years of experience owning product roadmap for a breakthrough product through multiple iterations
  • Experience working in 2 sided marketplaces in technology (ads, e-commerce, real estate, etc)
  • Data-driven: Experience defining metrics and running experiments and testing. Comfortable writing own SQL and comfortable understanding ML
  • Customer oriented: Works backward from customer and understands needs. Can generate empathy with consumer and business customers
  • Communication: Excellent written and verbal communicator
  • Economics, Statistics, Mathematics, Engineering or Computer Science background

Bonus skills and experience:

  • Experience in Transportation Tech
  • Experience in IoT and intersection between hardware & software

Benefits of working at Convoy:

  • Health & Wellness: Taking care of your health comes first. Convoy covers 100% of your medical, dental, and vision premiums, and 85% for your family. We also provide access to the gym and showers in our building.
  • In-Office Happiness: Enjoy catered meals multiple times through the week, and fully stocked fridges and pantries to keep you running full.
  • Commuter Benefits: We transport the world; the least we can do is help get you to work. Every employee receives a fully paid Orca Card to get you around on the bus, light rail, or water taxi. We also provide locked bike storage if you prefer to pedal in.
  • Time Off: Life outside of work matters. Convoy has a flexible vacation policy, so take the time off you need- we don’t track vacation or sick time. We also offer generous parental leave for those expecting new additions to their family.
  • Compensation: We offer market competitive compensation, including stock options and a 401k plan to help save for retirement.
