Product Manager

Company Overview

Bizzzle Technologies is a stealth-mode company that is reimagining social media for a new generation. Our proprietary technology brings fans and influencers together, empowering them to maximize their voices and foster deeper and more meaningful relationships. Bizzzle harnesses the power of pop-culture to inspire and change the world - one fan at a time.

Job Overview

Bizzzle is looking for an experienced and innovative Product Manager, and we are open to this person working remotely from anywhere in the United States. As someone driven and ambitious, you will operate as a contributing thought leader at the company, helping execute the direction of our product, working very closely with leaders of all departments including Engineering, Business Development and Marketing.

This role requires a superstar with a thorough understanding of social media platforms, current mobile app trends and technologies, and product management best practices, while keeping in mind the user experience.

We’ll be looking to you as Product Manager to prioritize and implement features and iterations on the product with urgency. You’ll act as an internal and external evangelist extraordinaire for all things product-related - developing, managing, and measuring product enhancements to increase sales, support business development, and build consumer loyalty.

You’re a great fit if you have strong business judgment, great familiarity of the social media landscape, along with extensive experience in managing all aspects of the product lifecycle - including product development, roadmap management, defining requirements and documentation, analyzing business metrics and iterative improvements. The ability to effectively translate “tech-speak” to less tech-centric stakeholders (including clients) is also critical.

We’d like the person in this role to keep abreast of industry trends, ensure the group stays ahead of its competition, and research topics to guarantee the company is innovating in line with its brand values.

If you’re an innovative leader with a passionate drive for delivering high quality results and bringing new ideas to the table, and you would like to help us shape the future of Bizzzle, then we’d love to hear from you.
