About Pinterest:  

Millions of people across the world come to Pinterest to find new ideas every day. It’s where they get inspiration, dream about new possibilities and plan for what matters most. Our mission is to help those people find their inspiration and create a life they love. In your role, you’ll be challenged to take on work that upholds this mission and pushes Pinterest forward. You’ll grow as a person and leader in your field, all the while helping Pinners make their lives better in the positive corner of the internet.

Creating a life you love also means finding a career that celebrates the unique perspectives and experiences that you bring. As you read through the expectations of the position, consider how your skills and experiences may complement the responsibilities of the role. We encourage you to think through your relevant and transferable skills from prior experiences.

Our new progressive work model is called PinFlex, a term that’s uniquely Pinterest to describe our flexible approach to living and working. Visit our PinFlex landing page to learn more. 

The Merchant organization empowers businesses to effectively showcase and promote their products and brand to Pinterest's vast user base. We provide the tools and support for high-quality merchants to upload and maintain rich product catalogs, execute impactful advertising campaigns, and cultivate a compelling brand presence on the platform. As a Staff Product Manager for Merchant Presence, you will spearhead the strategy for how merchants and their brands appear on Pinterest. This includes overseeing the inspirational content they share, the ways they leverage boards and collages, and the overall curation of their brand profiles. Your work will be instrumental in shaping the overarching vision for how brands engage and inspire Pinners on Pinterest.

 

What you’ll do:

  • Define vision and strategy for how we want merchants and their content to show up across the Pinterest experience. Socialize, iterate, and align downstream teams and their work with this vision.
  • Partner with algorithmic and editorial teams on Merchant profiles and content showcases.
  • Lead V1 work on merchant boards and collages. Build the merchant tools and content creation suggestions that enable merchants to showcase content and products in the most compelling ways.
  • Deeply understand the merchant lifecycle so you can ensure merchants are investing in their Pinterest presence at the right time and seeing clear payoff.

 

What we’re looking for:

  • Demonstrated experience working on consumer experiences at scale, especially within algorithmic contexts.
  • Exceptional relationship-building skills, organizational awareness, and ability to persuade others to accomplish program objectives while holding yourself and your team to a high standard of accountability.
  • Demonstrated success as a product manager at fast-growing companies.
  • Proven ability to lead in ambiguous environments, aligning across functions, teams, and orgs to deliver on time in a highly collaborative environment.
  • Strong analytical skills to define product strategy and drive decision making, making appropriate trade-offs based on data analysis and qualitative feedback from Pinners.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills with clear communication of complex topics.
  • Experience working in B2B2C experiences or platforms/business tooling is a plus.
