What we’re looking for
We're looking for a Principal PM to own one of our most strategic product bets. This is a role for someone who thinks in systems, operates at the intersection of product and platform, and knows how to turn a long-term vision into a quarterly plan that actually ships.
You'll work at the senior individual contributor level with a player-coach remit, setting strategy, influencing cross-functional teams, and developing the PMs around you. This is not a role for someone who wants to manage up and delegate down. It's for someone who still loves the work
What you’ll be working on
- Own strategy and roadmap for a high-priority initiative with direct revenue impact
- Define the long-term vision while staying close enough to execution to catch when things drift
- Influence and align cross-functional teams such as engineering, design, data, and adjacent product orgs
- Mentor and elevate the PMs around you through example, not just feedback
- Bring commercial rigor to every roadmap decision connecting features to outcomes
- Work with platform and infrastructure teams to define what capabilities are needed and in what order
We’d love to hear from people with
- 8+ years in product management with a track record of owning complex, cross-functional bets
- Deep experience in one or more of: workflow automation, orchestration, engagement, or growth product loops
- Strong strategic long term and short term instincts
- Commercial orientation thinking about revenue impact, retention, and activation as naturally as you think about user experience
- Proven ability to influence without authority across large, matrixed organizations
- Providing player-coach energy to be in the room where the hard decisions get made, not just reviewing the output
- Comfort with AI and data as product primitives — you know how to build things that feel intelligent
- Experience at a SaaS company serving SMB or mid-market customers
- Background in integration-heavy products or platforms with rich API ecosystems
- Familiarity with AI-powered recommendation or next best action systems
The base pay provided for this position ranges from $208,250.00/year - $269,500/year depending on the geographic market and assuming a full-time schedule. Actual base pay is based on a number of factors including market location, job-related knowledge, education or training, skills, and experience.
Bonuses and commissions may also be offered as part of the total compensation package, in addition to a competitive benefits package including medical, dental, vision, life, and disability insurance; 401(k) retirement plan; flexible spending & health savings account; paid holidays; paid time off; employee assistance program; and other company benefits.
SurveyMonkey believes in-person collaboration is valuable for building relationships, fostering community, and enhancing our speed and execution. While this role is remote, it may require in-person participation. You will be encouraged to attend company events throughout the year. These events will take place at a designated SurveyMonkey office or location.
