▷ Immediate Start : Associate Product Manager

Why this role exists

We’re building an AI‐first suite of edtech products—spanning teaching, learning, assessment, practice, and

partner management—that helps hundreds of thousands of students upskill in latest technologies. As a

Product Manager at NxtWave, you’ll turn strategy into Roadmap Milestones and ship high‐quality

experiences across web and mobile that improve learning outcomes and business results.

What you’ll do

Strategy & Discovery

Translate company / category strategy into a clear product narrative and Milestones.

Drive customer discovery (students, mentors, employers) : interviews, JTBDs, journey maps.

Size opportunities with data; run competitive scans and build‐vs‐buy assessments.

AI‐first Product Delivery

Ship features that leverage LLMs / agents, retrieval, and automation; write crisp PRDs / DRDs.

Partner with Engineering, Design, and Data to deliver in short cycles with strong rollout hygiene.

Maintain backlog clarity and sequencing across multiple initiatives in a pod.

Metrics, Insights & Growth

Define success metrics; instrument events; build dashboards and run A / B tests.

Analyze cohorts, funnels, and retention; translate insights into iteration plans.

Partner with Growth on activation, engagement, and SEO / content strategies where relevant.

Stakeholder & GTM Alignment

Work tightly with Business Owners (P&L), CX / Support, and Marketing to land impact.

Create crisp storytelling docs for decisions; drive cross‐functional alignment.

Enable internal teams with release notes and playbooks; coordinate GTM handoff (CX, Success,

Marketing).

Quality, Risk & Ethics

Own pre‐launch checklists, QA gates, and safe rollouts (guardrails, fallback paths), then drive

post‐launch adoption (enablement, internal comms, training, instrumentation) to hit adoption

targets.

Ensure learner privacy, data safety, and ethical use of AI in features.

EdTech nuance

Incorporate pedagogy, assessment integrity, and accessibility.

Collaborate with Curriculum / Content teams on content pipelines and standards.

What success looks like (first 90–180 days)

Ship 2+ Milestones that move a core KPI (learning outcome or revenue driver).

Establish a healthy experiment cadence and decision rhythm (measure→learn→iterate).

Uplift partner satisfaction (Engineering / Design / Business Owner) through clear plans and reliable

delivery.

Qualifications

Must‐haves

3+ years of product management experience with end‐to‐end ownership (0→1 and / or 1→n).

Proven end‐to‐end ownership of meaningful product work (0→1 and / or 1→n).

Fluency with product analytics (SQL / Sheets + Amplitude / Mixpanel or similar) and experimentation.

Hands‐on exposure to modern AI stacks (OpenAI / Agents, LangChain / LangGraph, vector DBs, RAG)

plus comfort with vibe‐coding tools (Lovable, Replit) and agentic orchestration platforms (e.g.,

CrewAI).

Strong written communication and narrative storytelling; comfort presenting to execs.
