Technical Product Manager

Posted Mar 23

Working as a Technical Product Manager at Canopy means helping design, track, and implement critical experiments that help drive Canopy forward, and it also means helping organize and facilitate progress on BAU (business-as-usual) work like ad-hoc requests, making sure bugs get solved, and making sure things make it to production.

Your ultimate goal as a TPM is to generate impact and to be proud of how you generate that impact and whom you generate it with.

This is a technical role -- you should be able to run our software and experiment with it; while you will not be expected to actively code on the job, you should be able to read and understand our codebase/documentation well enough to do so if you would like. You will need to understand our product well enough to speak about it at multiple levels of complexity.

During any given workday you might spend:

  • 40% of your time communicating with, helping, and asking for help from your team
  • 10% running off the desk experiments
  • 20% designing and driving critical experiments forward
  • 10% driving results for needs
  • 20% doing fun events, working out, taking walks or breaks

We would like to share some resources that may be helpful for you in the application process.

  1. Product Team Ethos -- to give you a sense of how the product team functions in Canopy
  2. TPM Impact Document -- to give you a sense of the kinds of impact you would make in your role.
  3. TPM Interview Handbook -- we hope that you will find this valuable in prepping for our TPM role as well as others you may be applying to.
