The award-winning global tech nonprofit CareerVillage.org is at an exciting moment: we’re rapidly growing, expanding our service offerings, and looking to grow our team with a Product Manager. If you’re mission-driven, passionate about developing social impact technology, and love building engaging consumer products, we’d love to hear from you!

About CareerVillage.org

CareerVillage.org is dedicated to democratizing access to career information and advice for underrepresented people. As a Product Manager at CareerVillage.org, you’ll be building the technology to enact our mission: to democratize access to career information and advice for millions of underrepresented people. You’ll be contributing to two products: (1) our flagship crowdsourcing platform, which supports millions of learners, over 200,000 professionals, and thousands of teachers who have joined our movement and (2) our new product, Coach, an AI Career Coach (read about it in Fast Company and Forbes). The majority of your time will be spent working on Coach.

What you'll do

Work closely with the rest of the Product team to define target outcomes, product priorities, and product roadmap.
Contribute to the full product cycle — from research and specification through to testing, launch, and analysis.
Work with UX Researcher to understand the user journey through research insights, market trends, platform data, and organizational needs, then turn these findings into detailed product specs.
Design and iterate on features that drive user engagement, build habits, increase retention, and create impactful user experiences.
Collaborate closely with engineering, partnerships, data, and community teams, prioritizing projects and balancing various stakeholders' needs.

Strong understanding of user experience principles and technical concepts related to web technologies.
Proven ability to translate user insights into product improvements that create rewarding and sticky experiences.
