Group Product Manager - Consumer Internet

Group Product Manager

Location - Bangalore

Experience : 8+ Years

About the Team:

Product Management in the organization closely mirrors our rapid growth. Because we obsess over understanding customer behavior, we've been able to carve out an e-commerce niche in Tier 2/3/4 towns across Bharat. Our business growth is testimony to a singular focus on how we think of 'product' for our unique customers - many of whom had barely shopped online before, but are now able to because of the organization.

Fun fact: Nearly 5% of India's households shop with us.

As a Group Product Manager in our team, you will collaborate with Developers, Product Managers, Designers, Data Scientists, and Engineers. We are driven by a 'user-first' mindset and a strong bias for action. Above all, our Product Managers are driven by impact, not just features. We focus on problem discovery and delivery - not only obsessing over "what to build," but also executing with rigor to create meaningful impact.

But there's more - we love to have fun as much as we love to work hard. From movie buffs to sportspersons, we have a super cool team. So, if a game of badminton after a day of brainstorming sounds exciting, you'll fit right in!
