The Team You’ll Work With

At Carta, we’re building the technology to track ownership at a global level. We help companies understand who owns different parts of a company, whether shares, options, or other securities on the company’s cap table. Likewise, we empower employees, venture capitalists, fund managers, and other asset owners to view and manage their ownership holdings on the platform.

Many Carta users approach their experience via their phones and mobile devices. Rather than log into our site while sitting at a desk, they download our app and use it to access and manage their accounts on-the-go. Our mobile app supports our users with the highest mobile use cases: investors managing their funds, board members organizing their governance workflows, and private and public shareholders delving into personal finance.

In the past several years, we’ve seen rapid growth of our mobile user base. Looking ahead, we see greenfield opportunities across multiple user groups and businesses. We’re currently looking for a mobile product manager who can quarterback our mobile efforts--helping create the mobile platform that teams of the future can build on top of while helping deliver valuable experiences across a range of user needs. If you like thinking about networks from multiple angles and exposure to multiple user bases at once, this might be the role for you.

The Problems You’ll Solve

The Mobile product manager will work closely with our product managers, designers, engineers, and business partners across the entire Carta organization. The Mobile team will identify the highest impact mobile user experiences using both quantitative data and qualitative feedback. They’ll take these learnings to deliver best-in-class mobile experiences, creating a depth of experience that only mobile can deliver. Looking into the future, we hope to expand the mobile philosophy such that all teams approach development with a “mobile first” mentality.

About You

We’re looking for a senior product manager who can empathize with users across the entire Carta network. They understand what actions users want to take and which are most opportunistic for mobile development. This requires understanding our products and businesses deeply. In addition to the ability to organize our mobile strategy, we’re looking for a PM who is high EQ and can lead an engineering team in developing mobile experiences and communicate broadly across a wide range of stakeholders to gather requirements, prioritize projects, and provide clarity on when products will ship and how they can be used.

We’re looking for Product Managers who are:

• Empathetic: PMs must understand user pain points. They should be able to put themselves in the position of users and figure out ways to help them do the jobs they are trying to get done. This involves customer interviews as well as looking at signals from our delivery and product data.

• Mobile mindset: Mobile technologies allow software teams to deliver experiences different from those on desktops. We want a PM who is passionate about the opportunities that mobile technology creates for users and wants to be a part of a team of like-minded mobile first team members.

• Software mindset: Carta is a company that helps turn service-based solutions into software solutions. This requires both understanding how people solve problems in the real world as well as how to build products and features that allow us to accomplish those goals more effectively and safely in software. 

• Organized: Product Managers create order from chaos. They know the pulse of their teams and how to keep them focused and moving forward. They manage workflows across teams, projects, and offices and are the go to source for information.

• Cross-functional: Product Managers lead and coordinate development efforts between internal business and development teams. They ensure that Carta’s business needs are translated into requirements. They drive execution (planning, coordination, project management) of technology projects from ideation through launch.

• Strategic: Product Managers anticipate bottlenecks, weigh the costs and benefits of various solutions, forecast delivery timelines, and balance business needs with technical constraints. They provide crucial oversight and insight across projects.

• Communicators: By nature of their position, Product Managers must be strong communicators across multiple stakeholders. They translate information from technical team members to business counterparts. When problems arise, they feel comfortable escalating them to the proper stakeholders and identifying actionable solutions.

• Collaborators: Product Managers partner with engineering, product, and business leadership to build highly collaborative teams and facilitate compromises across teams and stakeholders.

• Think big and small: Product Managers look for scalable solutions that can move entire parts of organization, rather than just one team or a few. They understand our large, interconnected projects and cross-product dependencies deeply. While Program Managers can manage projects at a high level across teams, they can also help individuals and teams deconstruct problems into smaller solvable solutions.

• Data and impact driven: Product Managers identify metrics that quantify success. They use those metrics to understand team and project impact. Furthermore, they are constantly looking for the projects and solutions that deliver the highest impact and value for the company.
• Comfortable navigating ambiguity: Product Managers know when they or their teams are stuck. They gather information, mediate hard conversations, and identify a path forward that others can confidently follow.
