Job Description
Product Manager
Modern Classrooms Project
• As Product Manager, you will own the ongoing development of our AI-powered mastery-assessment product. • You will report to the Chief Innovation Officer and collaborate closely with the CEO, Head of Engineering, and teams across the organization. • As the first dedicated product manager for a tool that is still in its beta phase, you will both help define product strategy and do the hands-on work of defining requirements, designing experiences, and driving execution. • You will help set the product vision, strategy, and roadmap for MCP's mastery-assessment tool. • You will work directly with the CEO and CIO to define what we build, in what order, and why. • You will establish the product direction and ensure every feature on the roadmap traces back to our organizational goals and mission. • You will be the voice of the teacher and the student in every product decision. • You will conduct market research and competitive analysis, run structured teacher interviews, shadow classrooms during live instruction, and translate what you learn into product direction and insights that reshape how we think about the product. • You will refine the user experience. • You will produce wireframes and high-fidelity prototypes in Figma, define information architecture, design interaction patterns, and validate everything on actual target devices — Chromebooks with trackpads, iPads in noisy classrooms. • You will own the design system, the visual language for mastery status, and the content design: every label, prompt, error message, and AI-generated message and artifact that a teacher or student encounters. • You will validate the product-market fit hypothesis. • You will establish KPI frameworks, build unit economics models, design feedback collection systems, and set clear success criteria for each phase of rollout — so that leadership can make evidence-based decisions about expansion, investment, and commercialization. • You will establish the delivery framework and cadence. • You will set up and manage the work system (sprint planning, backlog grooming, retrospectives), define scope for each initiative, maintain a rolling look-ahead for dependent teams, and keep the team focused on the highest-impact work. • You are the person who makes sure the train runs on time. • You will support cross-functional go-to-market execution. • In collaboration with MCP’s Success Team, you will help coordinate product launches for new districts and major feature releases end-to-end — onboarding documentation, teacher training readiness, support channel setup, partner communication, and post-launch evaluation. • You will ensure every team at MCP is prepared before software reaches classrooms. • You will manage risk, dependencies, and cross-team coordination. • You will proactively identify district-specific technical rollout requirements (content filters, domain allowlists, DPAs), track cross-team dependencies, run checklists before major launches, coordinate feature rollouts across multiple impacted teams, and surface and mitigate single points of failure before they become crises. • You will help build the product management discipline at MCP.
Job Requirements
- You've built products from scratch.
- You have taken a software product from zero to real users — not just managed an existing one.
- You know what it feels like when everything is ambiguous, the team is small, and the product's identity is still being discovered, and you've navigated that all successfully.
- You are a strategic product leader.
- You have significant experience in product management, including roles where you owned product vision, roadmap, and go-to-market.
- You know how to define a product-market fit hypothesis, discipline a roadmap, and say no to good ideas that aren't the right ideas right now.
- You can design.
- You have real UX design skills — not just opinions about design.
- You can produce a wireframe, build a clickable prototype, and put it in front of a user to test.
- You understand information architecture, interaction design, and accessibility.
- You're willing to do this work yourself, not just direct others to do it.
- You can run a project.
- You have experience establishing delivery frameworks, facilitating sprint planning, managing scope, and keeping cross-functional teams coordinated.
- You see project management not as bureaucracy but as the discipline that lets small teams punch above their weight.
- You're motivated to be part of something larger than yourself.
- You believe that the highest value of your talent is using it to empower others.
- You're ready to make a real difference in educators' and young people's lives.
- It would also be helpful if: You have experience with AI-powered products and understand the product management challenges unique to AI/LLM systems — prompt engineering, evaluation frameworks, model selection, and communicating probabilistic outputs to non-technical users.
- You have light software development skills and can build quick prototypes or vibe-code functional proofs of concept to test ideas before involving engineering.
- You have experience in education technology — ideally K-12 — and you understand the unique constraints of building for teachers and students: school-issued devices, district IT restrictions, limited training time, the rhythm of a school day, and the gap between what works in a demo and what works in a real classroom.
Benefits
- Employer-sponsored health insurance through CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield
- Participation in Vanguard 403(b) deferred-compensation plan with 3% employer match
- Paid Time Off, inclusive of: vacation/PTO (20 days), paid holidays, paid parental leave, sick and safe paid time off, "Me Days", and the ability to earn paid Comp time off
- Annual budget for MCP-funded Continuous Learning for the program(s) you request (available after 6 months of continuous full-time employment)
- FSA and Dependent Care FSA access
- 1x Salary Life Insurance company-paid coverage
- Access to Wishbone Pet Insurance Benefit
- Ability to work remotely and to set your own hours (within reason)
