Sr. Product Manager (Technical) | Forecasting & Planning

About The Role

Wonder is looking for a high-impact Senior Product Manager (Technical) to own and evolve our store planning and simulation systems. This role sits at the intersection of forecasting, simulation, and replenishment execution.

Key Responsibilities

• Own performance: Own & report on key operational metrics, e.g. planning-driven in-stock & waste – at business-relevant granularities
• Establish a baseline: Build & maintain a naïve/baseline DC-level forecast or heuristic to quantify simulation performance (“how much value are we adding”?)
• Analyze with an owner-mindset: Deep-dive/RCA system performance across stores and SKU groups (e.g. cold-start products) to inform development areas
• Shape Technical Direction: Own the feature development lifecycle, set the roadmap for your planning domain, and translate POC learnings into clear product & tech requirements
• Design and build analytical POCs: Lean on your technical capability to test new logic, heuristics, or modeling approaches before tech implementation
• Guide Engineering/DS team: Once POC performance has been proved – partner with tech colleagues to guide scalable, production-ready solutions
• Cross-Functional Leadership: Communicate impact & insights: Explain system behavior, trade-offs, and results to technical and non-technical stakeholders (including ops leadership)
• Partner closely with Supply Chain Ops & Analytics to help teams understand planning logic, and ensure business decisions are informed by data-backed reality

The Experience You Have

• 5-8+ years in Product Management, Applied Analytics, or Supply Chain development, with meaningful exposure to planning & replenishment systems
• Experience operating in a business-facing role with accountability for operational results
• Strong analytical instincts – ability to work with data and models (not just requirements) within a complex, technical domain
• Strong understanding of forecasting & ordering logic, ideally in food/perishables or other constrained supply chains
• Fluency with analytical tools (we use BigQuery, GCP + Looker) to evaluate performance at scale (note: strong SQL is a key requirement)
• Comfort building POC models (SQL or Python-based) to evaluate performance, explore system behavior and validate ideas

The Way You Work

• You have an ownership mindset and are comfortable being accountable for outcomes, not just delivery
• You enjoy operating at the intersection of technology and business – either as a tech-forward PM or a business-forward builder – and can translate fluently between technical constraints and operational reality
• You care about building products that deliver measurable business value – not just theoretical improvement
• You bring structure to complex, ambiguous problems and turn them into testable hypotheses and clear decisions
• You have a strong bias toward action, rapid learning, and continuous improvement
