Product Manager
About The Role:
As Time Doctor continues to grow, we’re looking for an innovative and entrepreneurial product manager to take our product in new directions.
This is a newly-created role and a unique opportunity to be involved with a SaaS product that is facilitating the world’s transition to effective remote work. To expand Time Doctor’s reach beyond its current market, you’ll identify new target markets, develop strategies to meet their needs, and work with the necessary departments to implement solutions, and manage and monitor progress. You'll be working with a talented development team on a product that has traction with significant growth opportunities.
Since your primary goal will be expanding our product’s value to reach new markets, you’ll have the freedom to be creative and chart your own course without the constraint of meeting the demands of existing customers. You’ll be expected to create hypotheses, and devise creative ways to move quickly through “build-measure-learn” cycles (Lean Startup methodology). The ideal candidate would be driven, innovative, adaptable, and not deterred by failure.

- Work closely with the development team to ensure that the highest priority tasks are worked on and to remove roadblocks.

- Facilitate the creation and maintenance of product documentation.
- Collaborate with existing product teams and other stakeholders to incorporate new validated features into Time Doctor.
