This role reports into the Growth Team.

In this role, you will build an experimentation strategy that gets key insights about our customers purchasing behaviors and provides data-driven recommendations for our pricing strategy. In addition, you will work closely with both the Revenue and Infrastructure teams to build a platform that allows us to try out new, innovative and transparent pricing and merchandising strategies. You will build experiences that are delightful but non-intrusive, and connect with them on the right channel based on customer’s consent and preferences. You will also focus on improving the long-term value that a customer gets from Gusto by aligning pricing with value.

You’ll be working with an established team of seasoned Growth leaders in Engineering, Product, Design, Data Science, Marketing, and Sales. In this role you’ll use ML and Personalization to work cross functionally on both Experimentation and Platform strategies that span the entire breadth of the Growth Stack, building world class solutions for our customers.

Here’s what you’ll do day-to-day:

• Develop a deep understanding of Gusto’s product catalog and the customer’s lifecycle to develop a strategy to optimize pricing, packaging, recommendations, upsell and feature adoption 
• Partner with Engineering, Design, Data Science as well as Revenue counterparts in Sales and Customer Success to solve complex cross functional problems
• Set goals and strategy for your domain then translate it into a roadmap, milestones, and requirements collaboratively to drive alignment and excitement with your cross-functional partners and stakeholders 
• Set, track and improve key product and business metrics 
• Distill insights and data from key stakeholders, industry trends, competitive analysis, business and product metrics, and other sources to guide strategy 
• Drive the product development process from concept to launch, ensuring timely delivery of high-quality products that delight customers and result in significant and measurable business impact 
• Iterate on mature features using data and customer feedback to identify areas for improvement and optimization, and ensure experiences delight our customers and surpass our business goals

Here’s what we're looking for:

• 6-8 years of product management experience driving product adoption and business growth 
• Bonus if you have experience building Recommendation Systems and/or Ad Serving Platforms in a SaaS environment
• Experience building delightful, relevant and non intrusive User Experiences
• Data and hypothesis driven, business-minded
• You know how to expertly leverage qualitative and quantitative data to develop and execute experiments and A/B tests that are optimized for learning
• You can measure the business impact of your work and tie it back to company goals
• Customer obsessed. You’re passionate about not only hitting business goals, but intimately knowing our customers and creating the best experiences to meet their needs. You know that the key to business growth is through happy customers
• Collaborative execution. You’re a great listener, and naturally bring the team and stakeholders along, yet you don’t hesitate to make hard decisions when needed. You push the pace, and people feel like they do their best work with you
• Objective learning. You get more excited when you’re wrong than when you’re right. You optimize for learning, and love peeling back the layers. Your favorite questions are “why” and “why not”
• Systems thinking. You enjoy complex challenges and navigate them deftly. You have a wealth of frameworks and mental models that you rely on to unpack problems and arrive at elegant solutions
• You can take rough themes and big ideas and turn them into a roadmap of features, experiments, and research with minimal guidance
• Passion. You love the problems Gusto’s solving for business owners and their employees, and you’re excited to continuously solve them better and better
