Your Role at impact.com
We’re hiring a technical Product Manager for the Action Processing (AP) and Contracting Squad — one of impact.com’s most foundational domains: how brands and partners define terms, commissions, lists, and contract workflows that power revenue on the platform.
This is a step up from associate-level execution. Ownership and delivery of value / outcomes are the core of this role: you own feature sets end-to-end, define what success looks like, and are accountable for shipped results — not only clear tickets and on-time delivery.
You have already made the shift to building with AI: you use agents and modern AI tooling to ship real artifacts (specs, prototypes, analyses, internal tools, personal projects). You’ll bring that operating system into a systems-heavy product domain and raise the quality and speed of requirements, tradeoffs, and delivery.
You’ll partner with a Senior Product Manager and Engineering with meaningful independence: you lead specs, own prioritization within your scope, and bring recommendations — not only options to escalate.
What You'll Do
Ownership, outcomes & delivery
- Own feature development for Action Processing (AP) and Contracting Squad initiatives (e.g. terms/commission behaviors, list and audience rules, contract workflows, and customer-driven requests).
- Define success up front (metrics / OKRs), ship, and follow through on outcomes — adoption, quality, rework reduction, or business impact — not just output.
- Write high-quality customer and business requirements that reduce rework and protect engineering focus.
- Develop Markdown requirements that live adjacent to the GitHub repo (versioned next to eng context, not only in Confluence/docs silos); lead pre-spec and spec reviews and drive release prioritization. Optimize for short time from ask → usable draft → eng-ready.
- Partner with Engineering through build: surface risks early; make crisp tradeoffs under incomplete information and own the recommendation.
