Join us as Our Next Product Manager! 

BackWPup is calling for a Product Manager who's equal parts strategic thinker, UX advocate, and hosting nerd 💡💻. You’ll lead the charge in building features that empower WordPress users to secure 600k+ websites. This is your chance to own the roadmap and ship the next generation of backup tools that will make the WordPress ecosystem a safer place.

💡 Why This Role Stands Out

This role is a great opportunity to build and learn. As the first PM on this product inside a wider product organization, you will have both the full ownership on a high potential product with already a strong user base and the knowledge and the guidance of a wide product organization driven by a product-led growth strategy.

Become Our New Product Manager !

What You Will Be Doing:

• Collaborate with product leaders and stakeholders to define the product vision and strategy.
• Define the product roadmap based on customer needs, hosting trends, and competitive analysis.
• Own the full product lifecycle, from discovery to launch, with a strong focus on data-driven decisions and high quality releases.
• Partnering with engineering, design, marketing and support teams to drive product-led growth (PLG), boost adoption, and increase customer lifetime value.
• Leading cross-functional planning to ensure on-time delivery and alignment across stakeholders.
• Conducting user research, gathering feedback, and analyzing usage data to inform product decisions.
• Build processes to deliver high quality releases in a stability-sensible sector and share best practices across the product organization.
• Implementing product analytics tools to track engagement, retention and feature adoption.
• Keeping abreast of changes in the hosting / backup industry and the WordPress ecosystem.
• Manage experiments and satellite plugins like Adminimize and Search & Replace.

What Do You Need To Excel at This Job:

• First successful product management experience, ideally with WordPress or hosting-related products.
• Proven track record of managing technical projects from concept to launch.
• Previous background in PLG strategies (self-service onboarding, free-to-paid conversion) is a plus.
• Understanding user needs in the hosting business and / or the WordPress community is appreciated.
• Data-driven decision-making mindset.
• Eager to progress and learn fast.
• Deep empathy for customer needs and a focus on real-world outcomes.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
• Familiarity with tools like Mixpanel, HubSpot, Jira, Figma, and product analytics platforms is a plus.
• Ready to work remotely, and ideally, located in a time zone between GMT+3 and GMT-5.

Do you want to know three other things we appreciate about our candidates?

• A startup mentality
  You are doer, you are adaptable and you like to evolve in a fast-paced environment.
• Previous remote job experience.
  Slack will be your virtual office, where all the life of the company takes place.
• The involvement in the WordPress community.
  We support our teammates to attend and/or speak at WordCamps and volunteer within the community.
