Responsibilities
- Own the end-to-end subscriber journey, from initial site landing to onboarding, plan management, skip and pause flows, win-back, and beyond.
- Partner with Engineering, Design, Data Science, Marketing, and CRM to build product experiences that reduce churn, improve trial-to-paid conversion, and deepen the long-term relationship with subscribers.
- Drive measurable improvements in new customer conversion rate, retention, frequency, subscriber churn reduction, and LTV through data and experimentation.
- Champion the voice of the customer, translating behavioral signals and qualitative research into product priorities that resonate at scale.
- Ensure product and lifecycle communication strategies are coordinated with Marketing and CRM, especially around cancel-save, win-back, and re-engagement moments.
- Communicate strategy, progress, and outcomes clearly to senior leadership, influencing roadmap investment and company-wide retention priorities.
- Represent Blue Apron's product priorities clearly within Wonder, aligning with shared infrastructure, platform, and personalization capabilities.
Requirements
- 8+ years of product management experience, with meaningful time spent on consumer-facing subscription products.
- Deep subscription product expertise, understanding early engagement, subscription activation, plan flexibility, churn drivers, and win-back.
- Strong conversion rate optimization background, with a rigorous, experiment-driven approach to funnel improvement and measurable CVR gains.
- Solid data and analytics skills, comfortable with SQL, funnel analysis, cohort analysis, and able to independently size opportunities and diagnose problems in subscriber behavior.
- Experimentation fluency, experience designing statistically sound A/B tests, interpreting results correctly, and building an experimentation culture on your team.
- Lifecycle instincts, thinking holistically about the customer journey and designing personalized product experiences that build habit, reduce friction, and recover lapsed subscribers.
- Clear, confident communicator, synthesizing complexity into crisp narratives for leadership and driving alignment across engineering, marketing, and operations stakeholders.
- High ownership mentality, treating your product like a business, holding yourself accountable to outcomes, and moving with urgency.
Qualifications
- Experience at a direct-to-consumer subscription brand (meal kit, grocery, CPG, media, or adjacent).
- Background working with CRM and lifecycle marketing platforms (Braze, Iterable, Klaviyo, or similar) from the product side.

Skills
