Product Manager

The impact you'll have in this role:
As a Product Manager at FeedbackFruits, you're fundamental in shaping the future of our system for learning design. Higher education institutions across the globe are looking for ways to transform the way they design their learning activities and your role is crucial in this transition.

You'll be working in a collaborative, multidisciplinary, and cross-functional product team to build the best teaching and learning tools out there. You'll drive the Ingredients Squad with energy and empathy, leading a talented team of 4 engineers, 1 designer, and 1 QA specialist to deliver features that create direct impact on the quality of education. Acai, the academic AI which is part of the FeedbackFruits product, is developed as part of this squad.

In your day-to-day, you own the end-to-end discovery and delivery of high-quality and engaging products within the Ingredients Squad, which focuses on the core learning process and the components teachers use to scaffold assignments for their students.

Job responsibilities:
