Job Description
At PayPal (NASDAQ: PYPL), we believe that every person has the right to participate fully in the global economy. Our mission is to democratize financial services to ensure that everyone, regardless of background or economic standing, has access to affordable, convenient, and secure products and services to take control of their financial lives. We're a purpose-driven company, and our beliefs are the foundation of how we conduct business every day. We're guided by our core values of Inclusion, Innovation, Collaboration, and Wellness. Collectively, these values inspire us to work together as One Team with our customers at the center of everything we do, and to take care of ourselves, each other, and the communities in which we live and work. We challenge the status quo, ask questions, and find solutions. Join us as we enable the hopes, dreams, and ambitions of millions of people around the world.
About the Team Honey is a product- and engineering-focused company and the Product Management team is at the heart of everything we do. We collaborate with our peers in Engineering, Design, and Analytics to build products and features that find mutual wins for our customers, our merchant partners, and our business. We partner with the Revenue, Communication, Member Experience, and Marketing teams to successfully bring these product to market. Our culture places a strong emphasis on aligned autonomy, collaboration, and a deep sense of ownership. At Honey, our vision is to build a world-class shopping destination on both mobile and web where shoppers begin each shopping journey. By using our data about coupons, price history, cashback rewards, and other ways to save, we can create highly personalized shopping experiences that can help users discover new products and stores while providing insights into how they can maximize their savings.
About the Role
We are looking for an experienced, data-minded product lead to spearhead our Personalized Shopping efforts. You will be responsible for setting the vision, strategy, and roadmap for teams to translate the raw insights we have about consumer shopping behavior to create a highly engaging ecommerce experience. The ideal candidate will have relevant experience building recommendation systems at scale and a strong understanding for when to deploy rapid iterations on rules-based approaches vs. investing in more intensive machine learning models. You will lead teams of engineers, data scientists, product designers, and analysts to drive new algorithm development, create a plan for continuous optimization, and create measurable impact throughout the shopping experience. This is a crucial initiative at Honey and core to our vision of creating a world-class marketplace for both shoppers and merchants alike.
In addition, we expect everyone on the Product team at Honey to:

• Use an effective combination of research, data, and product intuition to make timely decisions
• Understand the "why" behind everything we do and instill that understanding across the teams you work with
• Serve as a communication hub and collaborate with other teams to ensure alignment across the ecosystem of Honey products

• Level up the team around them, providing inspiration and mentorship to more junior product managers and introducing better ways of working and thinking
• Have a deep awareness, respect, and empathy for what we ask of our users and the value we provide them in return

We're looking for candidates with

• At least 7 years of experience building and shipping consumer-facing products with a focus on personalization and recommendations
• Experience leading multiple teams and managing PMs, and a track record of building trust quickly throughout an organization and getting stuff done

• Fluency with data science and machine learning concepts, but more importantly, a deep appreciation of what big data can and can't do
• A natural, deep curiosity that drives you to learn, investigate, and constantly ask why
• Expert communication skills that enable you to persuade and inspire, break down complex concepts, and keep teams aligned
• The ability to think out of the box when it comes to generating ideas, but an understanding that execution is what ultimately matters
• Comfort with ambiguity, and an instinct for moving quickly and iterating rapidly
