About the Role
Location: Remote, United States
Duration: FTE
Reporting to: Director of Product Engineering
Compensation: $192,500-$225,000 per year
We’re at a pivotal moment in our growth as an organization. Having proven the value of our work to funders over the past seven years, we’re laying out the roadmap for the next era. We’re redesigning our entire UI, building out a data infrastructure to help us make better decisions more quickly, and integrating artificial intelligence into our student and instructor experience. 2024 marks a pivotal year of innovation at CodePath, and we're seeking an exceptional product leader to drive these initiatives within our dynamic, skilled, and small expanding engineering team.
As the Lead Product Manager, you will play a pivotal role in shaping our product strategy and execution. You will collaborate closely with our leadership team to build our product roadmap with the company's overarching vision.

Experience with ed tech is a plus, and we’d love to talk with candidates with experience in workflow automation or B2B SaaS as well.
This role presents a unique opportunity to not only spearhead feature development, but also define and implement a robust product development process in partnership with our engineering team. We’re a small group of passionate veteran engineers who thrive on autonomy and a connection to the purpose of our work, and we’re eager to work with you on making the greatest impact possible on the lives of our students.
