Senior Product Manager, Catalog
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use those exact headings? The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should use those headings if we have content. We have Overview, About The Job, About You, Minimum Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications, Pay. We need to map to allowed headings. Probably we should use "About the role" for overview/about the job? "Responsibilities" for About The Job duties. "Requirements" for Minimum Qualifications. "Qualifications" maybe for Preferred Qualifications? Or "Skills". But we need to follow instruction: use those headings for sections. It says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings? It says use those for section headings. Likely we should only use those headings. So we need to map content to those headings.
We have:
- About the role: could contain overview and about the job description (what the role does). Could combine overview and About The Job.
- Responsibilities: could be the bullet list from About The Job (the owned tasks). That seems appropriate.
- Requirements: Minimum Qualifications.
- Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications.
- Skills: maybe not needed; we could omit if no specific skills section.
- Pay: compensation ranges.
- Benefits: we have no specific benefits, so omit.
- Schedule: remote, flexible; mention remote and Flex First. Could include Schedule section with remote work info. The posting says "This role is remote and the base pay range...". Also "Instacart is a Flex First team...". So we have schedule info: remote, flexible. So we can include Schedule section.
Thus we will output sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Pay, Schedule.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We must preserve all substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to extract lists:
From About The Job (responsibilities): bullet points start with "Own the end-to-end strategy..." etc. Each line is a responsibility. We'll make

From Minimum Qualifications: bullet points start with "5+ years of product management experience..." etc. Each line is a requirement. We'll make

From Preferred Qualifications: bullet points start with "Experience in marketplaces..." etc. We'll make

Pay: we have base pay ranges per location. Could present as

Overview paragraph: "We're transforming the grocery industry At Instacart, we invite the world to share love through food because we believe everyone should have access to the food they love and more time to enjoy it together. Where others see a simple need for grocery delivery, we see exciting complexity and endless opportunity to serve the varied needs of our community. We work to deliver an essential service that customers rely on to get their groceries and household goods, while also offering safe and flexible earnings opportunities to Instacart Personal Shoppers. Instacart has become a lifeline for millions of people, and we’re building the team to help push our shopping cart forward. If you’re ready to do the best work of your life, come join our table. Instacart is a Flex First team There’s no one-size fits all approach to how we do our best work. Our employees have the flexibility to choose where they do their best work—whether it’s from home, an office, or your favorite coffee shop—while staying connected and building community through regular in-person events. Learn more about our flexible approach to where we work."
That's a bit messy but we keep.
About The Job heading: "Overview The Instacart Catalog team is the product data infrastructure powering everything customers see, find, and trust across the marketplace. We ingest data from retailers and third-party sources and use AI/ML and human operations to validate, enrich, and publish product information at scale. At the heart of this infrastructure are product attributes — the structured descriptors that power search filters, item card badges, dietary safety signals, health personalization, brand advertising, and agentic commerce. They touch every major surface and every major stakeholder. We're looking for a Senior Product Manager to own the product data layer that determines how customers find what they need, how brands show up on shelf, and how Instacart earns trust as the definitive source of grocery product data. In this role, you'll set the end-to-end strategy for catalog attributes, lead governance, and drive accuracy and coverage at scale — building the kind of trust that brands, retailers, and internal teams depend on. You'll work alongside a team of 7 engineers and partner closely with Machine Learning and Operations, as part of a broader product org of 4 PMs on the Catalog team. You'll thrive here if you love operating at the intersection of ML/AI, operations, and commercial partner relationships — and can hold a complex, multi-sided system together with clear thinking and strong execution."
Then About The Job responsibilities bullet list:
- Own the end-to-end strategy and roadmap for catalog attributes — aligning cross-functional partners around clear outcomes, success metrics, and milestones, and maintaining a roadmap process transparent enough that every side of the marketplace can depend on it.
- Translate ambiguous, complex problems into structured plans and drive execution from discovery and prioritization through launch, iteration, and scale, spanning a development process that includes Ops, Engineering, ML, Legal, and commercial partners.
- Use data and customer insights to run experiments, understand root causes, and design solutions that balance speed and accuracy across the attribute lifecycle — defining KPIs, interpreting results, and making sound tradeoffs between precision and recall.
- Build strong relationships and feedback loops across Product, Engineering, Design, Analytics, Operations, Machine Learning, Sales, Ads, Search, Legal, Brand, and Support — communicating transparently to drive clarity, commitment, and shared ownership of attribute quality.
- Establish and continuously improve mechanisms for operational excellence — owning governance rituals, quality dashboards, postmortems, and platform investments that make attribute quality defensible at scale and compound over time.
Minimum Qualifications bullet list:
- 5+ years of product management experience, with meaningful time spent in catalog, data platforms, content systems, or ML/AI-adjacent products — including ownership of complex, cross-functional programs with measurable impact.
- Proven ability to set strategy, prioritize ruthlessly, and deliver high-quality outcomes in fast-paced, dynamic environments — including building governance structures and quality systems, not just shipping features.
- Demonstrated proficiency using data to drive decisions — defining KPIs, partnering with Analytics, interpreting experiments, and reasoning about precision/recall and ML model tradeoffs — with comfort navigating ambiguity to find clarity.
- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with a track record of building trust and alignment across high-stakeholder-count environments where no single team controls all the inputs.
Preferred Qualifications bullet list:
- Experience in marketplaces, logistics, e-commerce, or consumer technology, with familiarity balancing multi-sided incentives.
- Hands-on experience with experimentation and analytics — including A/B testing, SQL, and dashboards — and the ability to partner deeply with Engineering and Data teams.
- Experience with product attribute systems, catalog data, content management, or source prioritization at marketplace scale.
- Familiarity with data pipelines, ML extraction workflows, or quality evaluation frameworks such as golden set audits, human-in-the-loop review, or precision/recall measurement.
- History of translating commercial commitments into engineering requirements, or prior work at the intersection of legal/compliance and data products — including rights management, regulatory compliance attributes, or data sourcing constraints.
- People leadership experience — direct or cross-functional — with a genuine passion for coaching, feedback, and fostering inclusive team culture.
