Senior Product Manager

Pearl is a ratings and standards company building the national standard for home performance. The Senior Product Manager will own the Pearl PRO real estate professional-facing web and mobile app end to end, including strategy, roadmap, discovery, and delivery. The role focuses on consumer-grade product experiences, agent workflow understanding, cross-functional execution, and meaningful AI enablement.

Responsibilities:

• Own the Pearl PRO product strategy and roadmap, in partnership with the SVP Product
• Be the single point of accountability for Pearl PRO's outcomes - adoption, engagement, and agent/broker satisfaction
• Make and defend prioritization calls, balancing agent needs, business goals, and delivery realities
• Set and hold a high bar for UX quality across both the Pearl PRO web app and mobile app - the app should feel as considered as the best consumer products agents use every day, not like enterprise software
• Drive end-to-end discovery: research, define, and validate solutions before committing engineering resources
• Write clear specs and requirements that let design and engineering move fast without re-litigating scope
• Build and maintain a sharp, current understanding of real estate agents' workflows, incentives, and daily pressures - from listing prep through closing
• Talk to agents and brokers regularly; treat direct user contact as a core part of the job, not a periodic research exercise
• Translate agent and broker feedback into a roadmap that earns trust and habitual use, not just feature checkboxes
• Partner directly with engineering to move initiatives from discovery through delivery without a middle layer of coordination
• Work with Data Science & Standards to keep Pearl Score and related data concepts accurate and legible to a professional (non-technical) audience
• Partner with BD and Customer Success so Pearl PRO's roadmap reflects real signal from the field - what's helping close deals and what's causing churn
• Identify where AI can meaningfully improve the agent experience inside Pearl PRO (e.g., faster listing prep, smarter client-facing summaries, workflow automation)
• Use modern AI tools to accelerate your own discovery, documentation, and delivery work

Requirements:

• 5+ years of product management experience
• Demonstrated ability to build and ship consumer-grade experiences across both web and mobile
• Genuine interest in and aptitude for understanding professional/prosumer users and their workflows - real estate experience is a strong plus, but a demonstrated pattern of getting deep on a professional user base (e.g., another vertical SaaS or marketplace) is also valued
• Comfortable operating as an individual-contributor product owner: no team to delegate to, high autonomy, high accountability
• Strong product discovery instincts and customer research skills
• Excellent written and verbal communication; able to align design, engineering, and go-to-market stakeholders without formal authority over them
• Comfortable in a fast-moving, top-down-influenced startup culture with evolving priorities
• Fluency with modern AI tools and a point of view on applying them to product work
• Alignment with Pearl's mission and values
