Associate Product Manager

Posted May 29

At MyFitnessPal, our vision is to be the global catalyst for every “body” to achieve their healthy. We believe good health starts with what you eat. We provide the tools and resources to reach your fitness goals.

As a Product Manager at MyFitnessPal, your job will be to onboard, engage, delight and retain our users by whatever means are necessary. It will be up to you to come up with the strategy but we think it will involve creating a seamless onboarding experience, showing them how to get the most out of the product through guidance, nudging them to engage with the product on a regular basis, and ensuring we’re offering best-in-class nutrition guidance so they stick around.

What you’ll be doing: 

  • In partnership with cross-functional stakeholders, this role will work to help define, size, and execute a product strategy for MyFitnessPal
  • Deeply understand our new customer and user segments, meeting regularly with target market audiences to refine product strategy and find product/market fit
  • With the MFP engineering and product and design teams, build a team that can successfully deliver on the product vision; help to hire the required engineering, design, and editorial teammates who will focus on engagement
  • Serve as a thought leader for the rest of MFP’s product team. Help incorporate our product strategy into our broader product vision, and ensure alignment across our platform
  • Live our core values in all you do:
  • Be Kind and Care
  • Live Good Health
  • Be Data-Inspired
  • Champion Change
  • Leave it Better than You Found It
  • Make It Happen

Qualifications to be successful in this role: 

  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience
  • 1+ years experience as a PM with a clear record of successful delivery and impact in collaboration with an engineering team
  • Product management experience for a mobile digital consumer product at large scale
  • Very strong critical thinking and analysis skills. Ability to take an ambiguous problem, use data-informed brainstorming, identify goals and clear metrics, and drive a team to deliver on those goals
  • Good user instincts - experience working with design, user research, running experiments, and iterating on ideas to benefit end users. Some experience with direct-to-consumer products is a plus
  • Passion for helping millions of people achieve their health and fitness goals
  • Deep understanding of consumer mobile apps with large scale audiences

Please consider applying even if you don’t meet 100% of the qualifications. Research shows you can still be considered for a position if you meet some of the requirements. At MyFitnessPal, we’re building a fitness product for everyone and believe our team should reflect that. We encourage people of different backgrounds, experiences, abilities, and perspectives to apply.
