Senior Product Manager - Search

Wish is a mobile e-commerce platform that flips traditional shopping on its head. We connect hundreds of millions of people with the widest selection of delightful, surprising, and—most importantly—affordable products delivered directly to their doors. Each day on Wish, millions of customers in more than 60 countries around the world discover new products. For our over 1 million merchant partners, anyone with a good idea and a mobile phone can instantly tap into a global market. 

We're fueled by creating unique products and experiences that give people access to a new type of commerce, where all are welcome. If you’ve been searching for a supportive environment to chase your curiosity and use data to investigate the questions that matter most to you, this is the place.

Our Product Management team is committed to building the best search experience for our users across mobile, web, and desktop. Search is at the heart of our core consumer experience, and is a critical entry point for many of our use cases. Our search system is responsible for a large chunk of revenue and is vital to the success of the company. We operate at a gargantuan scale — millions of users and searches on a regular basis — and we release new features constantly.

We are looking for a seasoned product manager who would be equally comfortable at envisioning and strategizing the future of Search, and at rolling up their sleeves and digging into the data to define metrics, explore users’ interaction patterns and behaviors, and identify opportunities for maximum business impact. You will partner closely with ML engineers, frontend and backend engineers, designers, researchers and other cross functional teams to plan, execute, experiment, and iterate on an ongoing basis.

This work involves thinking about critical user journeys, working directly with data for quantitative analysis, having a keen eye for aesthetic and usability, and, most importantly, thinking outside the box! Our database of hundreds of millions of users has provided us with a wealth of valuable data and a huge opportunity to try some very fresh and innovative ideas. We hope that you will join us on our journey.
