Staff Product Manager, Partnerships

Coursera is a leading online learning platform that partners with universities and industry leaders to provide access to world-class education. As a Staff Product Manager, you will shape the product vision and deliver exceptional experiences for learners and partners while driving business impact.

Responsibilities:

• As a Staff Product Manager, you will define and drive product strategy and own the roadmap for a high priority area of the Coursera platform, such as mobile, AI-powered assessment or agentic enterprise integration
• Own the end-to-end content creation experience for Udemy & Coursera from how instructors and creators author content, to how AI assists and adapts that content for learners — defining what "great" looks like at every step of that journey
• Make independent product calls in a fast-moving environment, bringing cross-functional partners along through clear reasoning and well-structured communication rather than consensus-by-committee
• Translate customer insights and market trends into integrated solutions that can scale to serve millions of learners and customers around the world
• Lead execution from ideation and analysis through development and launch, delivering measurable outcomes
• Partner with Engineering, Design, and Data teams to deliver AI-powered product features and experiences
• Leverage data and customer feedback to inform decisions and continuously improve
• Mentor peers and contribute to building a high-performing product organisation

Requirements:

• You have experience building, using, or experimenting with AI-driven products, particularly in the areas of workflow automation, conversational AI, decision support, or agentic AI, and transitioning from traditional UI to AI-driven or AI-first product
• You have taken a product from zero to launch in an environment where the path wasn't clear. You had to define the problem, make the bet, build the team's confidence, and ship it. You can point to what worked, what didn't, and what you'd do differently
• You have a high bar across the board - from your own contributions to the people you work with, to the products you work on
• You are the product leader who inspires colleagues to think bigger, look beyond safe bets and tackle challenges with conviction. You are a builder, not an optimizer
• You have a strong aesthetic sensibility and deep respect for craft in UX. You've worked closely with designers — not just as a stakeholder, but as a genuine creative partner — and your products show it
• You understand creator psychology. Whether it's course authors, instructional designers, or subject-matter experts, you know what makes creation tools feel enabling rather than obstructive, and you've shipped products that creators actually want to use
• You are commercially literate. You can connect product choices to revenue outcomes without reducing every decision to a business case. You know when to push for a quality call that doesn't have an immediate ROI, and when that's actually the wrong call
• You are energized about solving hard problems and navigating ambiguity and rapid technology change
• You are deeply curious about customers and the positive impact your product could have on their lives. You dive deep into data and feedback to ground your understanding of their needs and experience using your products
• You feel a sense of responsibility and urgency to invent the future of AI as a force for unlocking human potential and expanding opportunity
