Senior Product Manager / Product Manager

Location: Hyderabad/Bangalore

Mission:

Your goal is to transform "studying" into an immersive, AI-driven experience that students want to return to. You wont just be managing a roadmap; youll be orchestrating the entire user's lifecycle to drive industry-leading Retention and Renewal rates.

Key Responsibilities: The Core of Your Role

As a leader in the engagement pod, your focus is on the "Stickiness" of the platform. You will manage a team to execute across these pillars:

Multi-Cohort Strategy Design:

1. K-5 (Skill Building): Develop high-trust, parent-gated interfaces and gamified reward systems that foster a love for learning.

2. 6-10 (School exams/Tuitions): Bridge the gap between school curriculum and after school engagement using interactive modules and peer-based engagement triggers.

3. 11-12 (Test Prep): Build high-velocity, high-utility tools for JEE/NEET aspirants where time-to-value and precision are the only metrics that matter.

Product Delivery & Engineering Collaboration:

- Work closely with Engineering & Development teams to understand existing systems, data flows, and technical constraints to ensure all engagement features are built on solid, scalable architecture.

- Own requirements end-to-end by writing high-clarity PRDs, user stories, acceptance criteria, logic maps, and edge-case documents, ensuring engineering teams have everything needed to deliver without ambiguity.

- Drive sprint execution and ensure timely shipping of high impact releases - work with engineering managers, QA, design, and content teams to plan, prioritize, unblock, and deliver features on time.

AI-Native Product Evolution:

- Architect AI-driven "Nudge Engines" that predict when a student is likely to drop off and intervene with personalized content.

- Integrate LLM-based workflows to reduce friction in the learning journey.

Full-Funnel Journey Mapping:

- Define the "Golden Path" for every user persona from Day 0 (Onboarding) to Day 365 (Renewal).

- Identify bottlenecks in the usage funnel and deploy A/B tests to optimize conversion at every milestone.

Data Driven Approach & Impact Analysis:

- Evaluate how engagement features impact the Upstream (Sales/Marketing efficiency) and Downstream (Learning outcomes/Exam results).

- Ensure that increasing "Time Spent" doesn't lead to "Burnout," maintaining a healthy balance between usage and actual learning progress for users.

People Leadership:

- Lead a team of Product Managers and Associate Product Managers, fostering a culture of data-backed experimentation and first-principles thinking.

- Collaborate with Engineering, Design, and Content teams to ensure the roadmap is technically feasible and pedagogically sound.

Expected Skills & Expertise

Product Mastery:

- Expertise in Retention Loops and Behavioral Design (Hook Model, Gamification, and Nudge Theory).

- Ability to translate complex user psychology (parent vs. student vs. aspirant) into intuitive UI/UX.

AI & Technical Depth:

- Proficiency in leveraging Generative AI and Agentic AI to create personalized user experiences.

- Strong understanding of data architectureknowing how data flows between systems to ensure accurate and in-depth metric-based tracking.

Data & Analytics:

- Power-user of analytics and product marketing tools.

- Ability to conduct deep-dive cohort analysis and present insights that drive executive-level decisions.

Candidate Profile

- Experience: 4-10 years in Product Management, with at least 2 years leading teams in high-scale B2C environments (EdTech, Gaming, or Consumer Tech).

- Education: B.Tech (CS/IT preferred) from a Tier-1 institute (IIT/BITS/NIT).

- Behavioral: Resilient & Adaptable: You thrive in the chaos of a growing company. Empathetic: You can step into the shoes of a 7-year-old and an 18-year-old in the same hour. Extreme Ownership: You don't just ship features; you own the outcome. You treat the product like your own company.

- Problem Solving: High "Figure-it-out" quotient. You treat every friction point as a puzzle, not a roadblock.
