Product Manager, Places

Raya is a technology company focused on providing utility through its apps, Raya and Places. As a Product Manager on Places, you will turn product direction into shipped software, owning priorities and goals set by leadership, and driving the work from idea to launch.

Responsibilities:

• Turn direction into shipped work: Take goals and priorities from product leadership and translate them into clear, buildable specs with defined requirements and success criteria
• Drive cross-functional delivery: Lead engineering, design, QA, and other stakeholders day to day from problem to launch. Run the standups, track the work, unblock the team, and keep things moving
• Own the details: Manage scope, timelines, and dependencies. Surface risks early and keep leadership informed on progress and trade-offs
• Partner with QA on quality: Work with QA and engineering to test thoroughly and hold the team to the quality bar before we ship
• Bring ideas and evidence: Pressure-test concepts with users, prototypes, and data, and bring well-formed proposals to product leadership. The strongest ideas earn their way onto the roadmap
• Measure what shipped: Help define and instrument the metrics for your work, then report honestly on whether it moved them
• Communicate clearly: Keep partner teams and leadership aligned on status, blockers, and results. Escalate the right things at the right time

Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree, or equivalent practical experience
• At least 2 years of experience in product management, or an adjacent role (engineering, design, product operations, program management) with a path into product
• Strong organizational and project management skills. You keep complex, multi-person work on track
• Genuine user empathy and developing product sense. You care whether what we ship is actually good
• Comfortable with data: you can read a metric, ask the right questions, and tell when something isn't working
• Excellent communication. You write clearly and keep cross-functional teams aligned
• Familiarity with agile delivery and modern product tooling
• Low-ego, high-ownership, eager to learn from senior PMs and leadership
• Reliable Executor: You ship. Work handed to you gets done well, on time, without dropping details
• Idea-Generative: You spot opportunities and make a sharp case for them, knowing the bar is evidence and impact, not seniority
• Empathetic Collaborator: You earn trust across engineering, design, and QA and make the team around you more effective
• Growth-Oriented: A perpetual learner, open to feedback, hungry to grow into broader product ownership over time
• Impact-Driven: You drive toward the goal, problem-solve blockers, and make the right trade-offs to meet your commitments
