About this role
At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive.
Lyft connects people to transportation to change the way we live and get around our communities. We are looking for product managers who bring exceptional creative and analytical skills to drive forward a best in class product. Product management at Lyft leads the integration of engineering, data science, and design to achieve the company’s vision for reinventing transportation. We are looking for entrepreneurial and passionate Product Managers to innovate and execute across a rapidly growing, fast paced company and industry from our San Francisco headquarters.
The Core Rider team is responsible for the Lyft consumer app you know and love. This team spans the entire consumer journey across the request and purchase flows, search, pickups and dropoffs, the post-match experience, and the in-trip experience.
As a Staff Product Manager on the Core Rider team, you’ll lead a large cross-functional team to build the rider “journey” (anything that gets a rider from A to B.) This includes the home screen, request flow, pickup experience, in-ride experience, and rate & pay. You’ll also be responsible for how this “golden path” experience extends to serve AVs and segments of interest – owning targeted experiences like Lyft Silver for Seniors and Price Lock for commuters. This represents a large percentage of the core Lyft rider experience used by millions of people every day. Plus, the solutions you build need to work everywhere, from the simplest suburban home to JFK Airport, and all modes of transportation (rideshare, AVs, etc.).
Responsibilities:
• Understand Lyft's strategic and competitive position. Set goals and success metrics that align with Lyft's mission and drive maximum impact based on data analysis, market research and usability studies
• Set an incredibly ambitious vision that motivates and inspires your team, peers and leadership and scales equally well across places and situations of all types
• Completely own your team's products, existing or new, from ideation, through development, to experiment, launch, growth and maintenance, caring deeply about our users
• Lead and align cross functional partners and teams: engineers, designers, analysts, marketers, business partners and operations to drive a shared vision
• Communicate clear roadmaps, priorities, experiments and decisions across a wide spectrum of audiences from partner teams to executive level
Experience:
• 6+ years of experience in product management, product design or equivalent consultant experience with significant time spent leading consumer mobile apps
• Passion for Lyft and what we are trying to achieve in sustainable urban transportation
• Natural ability to make things happen around you. You manage project ambiguity, complexity and interdependencies in an organized and structured way. B
