Senior Product Manager – Growth & Acquisition
EvolveWe make vacation rental easy for everyone. For owners, for guests, for you.
• Own the acquisition product strategy across segments — define the funnel for both operator and single-owner acquisition, identify the conversion levers unique to each, and build the product experience that takes users from "interested" to "activated." • Design and run growth experiments end-to-end: write the hypothesis, scope the build, measure the result, make the call. Ship fast, kill fast, scale what works. • Lead discovery: talk to customers across the spectrum — from portfolio operators to first-time hosts — and translate those insights into a differentiated product roadmap. • Partner with Marketing and Sales on go-to-market execution — you own the product side of campaigns, not just the feature side. • Define and own your KPIs.
