Product Manager, DNA
About The Role
As a Product Manager on our DNA team, you will be responsible for delivering new innovative features to DNA users that combine genomic and genealogical data to unlock deeply personalized insights, piquing users' family history interest and converting them to paying subscribers.
You will lead the charge in creating powerful, engaging discovery experiences that help users unlock their family history by bridging the gap between genetic data and ancestral stories.
We are seeking a resilient, AI-forward problem-solver who can operate autonomously in high-ambiguity environments, take deep ownership of the product lifecycle, and use modern tools to rapidly prototype and ship truly resonant user experiences.
Who You Are
- Experience: 3-5 years of experience delivering successful consumer products at global scale.
- AI-native builder: Proven track record of shipping data-dense or AI-powered consumer features. Direct experience with GenAI, LLMs, or conversational agent frameworks is highly preferred.
- Prototyping & tools: A modern PM who integrates AI into their own daily workflow—comfortable using AI tools to research, query data, or build functional data prototypes during the discovery phase.
- Systems thinker: Ability to handle immense back-end complexity, navigate ambiguity, and bridge the gap between technical architecture and human-centered business strategy.
- UX craftsperson: A high bar for design, with a demonstrated ability to transform highly complex data into simple, magical user moments.
- Experimentation mindset: Strong data literacy with experience running A/B tests to evaluate the impact of feature and algorithmic updates or AI models.
