They are smaller than our flagship products, they move faster, and they carry more risk. The portfolio opens with two apps, one in wellness and one in personal budgeting, and more will follow. Every app in this group is a bet. Some will find an audience and a business, some will not, and the job is to figure out which is which quickly and without spending more than the answer is worth.</p> <p>We are looking for a Senior Product Manager to own that portfolio. You will run several apps at once rather than going deep on a single product, and you will make the recommendation on which ones earn more investment and which ones we put in maintenance mode, harvest or sunset.</p> <p>Monetization is the center of the work, not an afterthought once the product is built. Apps may monetize through subscriptions, ads or a hybrid model, tuned to the audience and the market rather than copied from a template. There is also a data monetization component, where users are compensated for data they choose to share, and you will own how that is offered, consented to, and valued.</p> <p>You will report to the GM, Upcoming Apps Portfolio and lead your own cross-functional squad.</p> <p><strong>Who You Are and What You'll Do</strong></p> <ul> <li>You are comfortable owning several products at once, moving between them without losing the thread on any of them, and being honest with yourself about where your attention is actually going.</li> <li>You treat a new app as a hypothesis. You define what would prove it out, you agree on a budget of time and money, and you hold yourself to the answer even when the answer is no.</li> <li>You are a self starter and thrive in ambiguity. You may not have the answers, but you know how to ask questions and take the first step. You don't get stuck in first gear.</li> <li>There is no task you are not willing and able to take on; scrappy and resourceful are two adjectives you use to describe yourself.</li> <li>You build monetization models that may include subscriptions and/or advertising, and you understand the tension between them. You know when a paywall is costing more in ad revenue than it brings in, and you know how to test your way to the right mix for a given audience.</li> <li>You own pricing, packaging, trials, and paywall placement, and you judge them on revenue per user over the life of the account rather than day one conversion.</li> <li>You are fluent on the ad side: mediation, fill, eCPM, ad load, and what happens to retention when you push any of those too far.</li> <li>You think carefully about data monetization. You can build an experience where users understand what they are sharing, agree to it willingly, and feel fairly paid for it, and you work with legal and privacy partners to keep it that way.</li> <li>You can confidently say "no" or "not yet" and "here's why." You can prioritize based on alignment to goals, impact, risk, complexity and effort.</li> <li>You value learning directly from users about what matters to them and developing solutions to their problems.</li> <li>You can deftly balance user and business needs, maximizing <em>both</em> business value and user experience.</li> <li>You use AI agents as a force multiplier rather than a talking point. You build your own prototypes, pull your own data, draft your own specs, run your own competitive research, and automate the recurring analysis that would otherwise eat your week. A portfolio this size only works if everyone on it operates well above what their headcount suggests.<
