SoundÂCloud is the worlds leadÂing audio platÂform, scalÂing up with a rapidÂly growÂing globÂal user base, and they’re lookÂing for a ProdÂuct ManÂagÂer New York for ConÂnectÂed Devices to join the team. In this role, you’ll be responÂsiÂble for helpÂing SoundÂCloud users conÂnect wherÂevÂer they are. HonÂestÂly, if you don’t know what SoundÂCloud is then you’re a goofÂball, I perÂsonÂalÂly hate most online serÂvices, but even I use this platÂform. Big deal right here!
So who is the ideÂal SoundÂCloud ProdÂuct ManÂagÂer?
Well it’s someÂone who can define SoundCloud’s conÂnectÂed devices stratÂeÂgy & prodÂuct vision. Work closeÂly with a team of engiÂneers to develÂop soluÂtions (e.g SDKs) that meet marÂket needs. Work with our partÂners to delivÂer seamÂlessÂly inteÂgratÂed SoundÂCloud expeÂriÂences. ColÂlabÂoÂrate with peer prodÂuct manÂagers and teams. Use data-driÂven approachÂes to deterÂmine areas of improveÂment, takÂing into conÂsidÂerÂing impleÂmenÂtaÂtion time, perÂforÂmance yield and othÂer trade-offs.
What are you going to need to even get in the door? First, you need that bachÂeÂlor’s degree or highÂer eduÂcaÂtion in a relÂeÂvant field (comÂputÂer sciÂence, inforÂmaÂtion manÂageÂment, physics, maths…). 5+ years of prodÂuct manÂageÂment and/or engiÂneerÂing expeÂriÂence, expeÂriÂence with agile methodÂolÂoÂgy and disÂtribÂuted teams. You have a deep underÂstandÂing of the conÂnectÂed device marÂket (SpeakÂers, TVs, GamÂing ConÂsoles etc.). You’re familÂiar with streamÂing techÂnoloÂgies (Audio/Video). You’ve helped develÂop an SDK. You have expeÂriÂence workÂing with exterÂnal partÂners to creÂate valuÂable partÂnerÂships. You WOW your colÂleagues with your depth of knowlÂedge and abilÂiÂty to impart it. You have strong anaÂlytÂiÂcal and quanÂtiÂtaÂtive skills and the abilÂiÂty to use hard data and metÂrics to back up assumpÂtions, recÂomÂmenÂdaÂtions, and driÂve actions. Love Uber details and jugÂgling projects.
