What Product Management is like at Gusto:

• We’re looking for high-autonomy, entrepreneurial Product Managers to come build high-impact solutions for small businesses and their employees. We believe in high-ownership Product Managers who operate like business owners - owning an entire roadmap end to end, and shaping the product from strategy setting through the nitty gritty execution details.
• Our Product team is lean, which means you’ll have a high degree of impact and ownership. 
• We’re here to serve small and medium businesses. Gusto has a strong mission-driven culture, and we care deeply about lifting up these business owners. 

About the Team: 

We are looking for Senior Product Managers to join our Product Management organization under the following teams: 

• Time Tools: Gusto’s Time & Attendance product helps SMB customers streamline their teams’ daily operations via time off, time tracking, scheduling, and project tracking, with the goals of saving time, saving money, and ensuring compliance with local labor regulations.
• Payroll Experiences: Oversees all customer facing experiences in Gusto’s flagship Payroll product, inclusive of setup, payroll preparation, payroll submission, and historical reporting.
• Contractor Products: Leads Gusto’s efforts to simplify the contractor management for small businesses. Independent contractors make up a rapidly growing segment of the U.S. workforce, with over 10.1 million classified as 1099 contractors as of 2024. This workforce drives nearly $1 trillion in economic activity annually, and small businesses rely heavily on this flexible labor model to stay competitive. However, managing contractors introduces complexity, from tax compliance to payment workflows, creating a massive opportunity for innovation.

Here’s what you’ll do day-to-day:

• Ownership: You will have ‘full stack’ ownership of your product area, from setting the strategic vision to building and executing the roadmap across all platforms (desktop, mobile web, native mobile).
• North Star: You will define top line business goals for your area and establish leading indicators to measure incremental progress. 
• Collaborate: You will drive your roadmap forward by working closely with your engineering, design, data counterparts, as well as stakeholders in marketing, sales, legal, compliance, partnerships, CX, and operations.

Here’s what we're looking for: 

• 5+ years of hands-on Product Management experience.
• Track record of leading high growth initiatives and building 0 to 1 products.
• Strong product discovery and analytical skills.
• Exceptional cross functional collaboration and leadership skills. You’re a great listener, and naturally bring the team and stakeholders along, yet you don’t hesitate to make hard decisions when needed. You push the pace, and people feel like they do their best work with you.
• Ability to identify emerging opportunities and industry trends, build business cases, define product vision and strategy, and create a supporting roadmap that rapidly iterates into delivering on your vision.
• Entrepreneurial spirit. You’re driven and passionate about our mission, and have deep empathy for our customers.
• A proven track record of building simple, elegant products at scale.

If you don't think you meet all of the criteria above but still are interested in the job, please apply. Nobody checks every box, and we're looking for someone excited to join the team.
