Job Description

Description

Join the Team Powering the World’s Most Driven Athletes and Coaches

At TrainHeroic, we’re on a mission to empower coaches and athletes to be their best. We build powerful, intuitive training software used by performance-driven teams and individuals; from pro sports organizations to high school powerlifting programs and garage gyms around the world. Our platform blends cutting-edge tech with deep coaching insight, helping users push past limits, track progress, and build championship habits.

If you’re passionate about sport, human performance, and creating tech that makes a real-world impact, you’ll thrive here.

As part of the Peaksware portfolio, consisting of brands like TrainingPeaks, MakeMusic, Alfred Music, TrainHeroic, we’re united by a shared mission: to create software that transforms deliberate practice into performance. At Peaksware, we don’t just build products. We build communities of motivated people chasing progress, including athletes, musicians, performers, and the teams that support them.

The Role
As Product Manager you will own one or more cross-functional, autonomous product development teams focused on a clear business mission and will be responsible for the successful execution of a product vision by delivering value to our customers. As a product leader, you will be responsible for working with executive leadership and the other team leads to research, define and then execute a cohesive solution within the broader product strategy and company vision. Your firsthand experience in the weight room — and ideally on the coaching side of the platform — will be your sharpest tool for making the right product decisions.

You’ll work closely with engineering, design, data, and business stakeholders to research, define, and ship features that solve real training problems. You’ll own the roadmap for your area, drive alignment with company strategy, and be the final decision-maker on what gets built and how it ships.

We’re looking for someone who lives and breathes strength training, understands programming and periodization from personal experience, and can translate that knowledge into products that coaches trust.

Core Functions:

  • Own the product roadmap for your team, aligning to company strategy and driving measurable business outcomes.
  • Be the final decision-maker on feature development, scope, and quality. Delegate QA within the team and manage a QA strategy based on company best practices and engineering principles.
  • Leverage your coaching and training experience to evaluate feature requests, validate workout programming workflows, and ensure the product serves real-world coaching needs.
  • Represent the coach’s perspective in product decisions, drawing on personal experience with periodization, programming progressions, communication and community development, and athlete management.
  • Facilitate the exchange of ideas across engineering, design, data, and business teams. Bring unbiased input to drive alignment and gain stakeholder buy-in.
  • Work with the data team to define, track, and act on the right metrics. Use a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods to measure success.
  • Understand TrainHeroic’s core customers (coaches, athletes, teams, organizations) and how the platform addresses their distinct needs. Use this understanding to define growth strategy.
  • Advocate for new initiatives that increase our value proposition or expand market reach, providing data-backed arguments for consideration among peers and leadership.
  • Utilize business acumen, with proficiency in identifying, tracking and acting upon metrics, in collaboration with stakeholders in your area of expertise.
  • Advocate for new projects that could increase our value proposition or market reach, and provide unbiased supporting arguments for consideration among peers and leadership.
  • Have a clear picture of the extended competition, know the dynamics and identify the new entrants. Know the differentiation at a strategy level.
  • Understand the core customers and market and how the application addresses differing needs; use this understanding to define a clear growth strategy.

  • Insatiable curiosity to learn new domains, keep up with industry innovation, and constantly ask ‘why.’
  • Active background in strength and conditioning — either as a coach or as a serious practitioner with deep knowledge of programming, periodization, and training principles.
  • Direct experience using TrainHeroic as a coach, strongly preferred. You should understand the platform from the practitioner’s perspective, not just the product side.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication. You set clear expectations and communicate proactively.
