The Role
We’re looking for a Senior Product Manager to own and scale the core product loops that drive retention, engagement, and long-term value. You’ll connect the dots between what kids love, what parents trust, and what grows LTV, turning insights into features that keep families coming back month after month.
This is a hands-on role: part visionary, part builder, part operator. You’ll design and execute the roadmaps that define how kids experience tapouts, from gamification to progress tracking, and prove their impact through measurable retention gains.
You’ll work closely with our co-founders, Head of Engineering, Head of Marketing, and cross-functional teams to shape what tapouts becomes. At both a strategic and tactical level, you’ll translate data, research, and intuition into experiences that not only inspire kids and parents but also build the business fundamentals: engagement, retention, and LTV.
Location: On-site in Venice Beach, CA, 5 days a week.
