About Us

Ever wonder why the products you order arrive in an oversized box stuffed with throw away filling? Packsize ensures that every product can ship in the smallest box possible, reducing that extra waste. Our custom packaging solutions save time, money, and the environment. We face interesting challenges every day, and not just with boxes! We are a technology company that understands the importance of being at the front of new, and disruptive technologies to solve those challenges. Our solutions are industry leading across both small and large enterprises around the world.

About The Role

Imagine yourself ordering a product online and then receiving that product in the most perfectly right-sized box, absolutely no waste! Right-sized packages are delivered to doorsteps all around the world thanks to Packsize, and it takes the skills and experience of our Product Managers to set that direction.

Youll work as part of cross-functional teams defining new products, services, and features across Packsize for our solutions, optimizing complex workflows, and integrating them within larger networked solutions. We are highly collaborative with engineering, sales, and our customers as we curate our winning product portfolio, continuously looking at the health of our products and how we can learn and improve. We also investigate and inspire new technologies and how we will leverage them to solve problems in new and better ways.

You will work with your peers and senior leaders to research, and implement products and features that add value into our target markets. Your excellent written and verbal communication skills will be critical in gaining alignment across stakeholders.

As a key member of the Product Management team, it is your responsibility to understand our domain and empathize with our customers. You will have the opportunity to demonstrate your passion for product discovery by conducting user research and market analysis and use those outcomes to test assumptions and drive product strategy forward. Your leadership sets the tone in determining what gets developed and what does not.

What Youll Achieve

• Ensure objectives and strategies for your team are aligned with the broader Company Vision, Product Vision, and Product Strategy and that each is being met.

• A focus on outcome-driven activities over a process. i.e., What impact do we want to achieve?

• Facilitate and guide groups of people towards a decision and when difficult decisions must be made, you leverage data to choose a course of action

• You define success and success metrics but are not afraid of missteps. You leverage small experiments to inform changes in strategy and approaches to accomplishing the vision.

• You reflect the strategic priorities of Packsize. You fully understand -- and have the ability to articulate -- the problem, the solution, the vision, the ecosystem in which your product will function, and how the product and ecosystem will interact and impact each other. You are comfortable discussing these things with your team, presenting high level concepts to leadership and stakeholders, and supporting high profile customers.
