Product Manager – São Paulo

About the Company

Lift Ventures, a remote-first startup studio whose portfolio of businesses has reached over 250 million consumers to date, is seeking a Product Manager to support product development at SuperSummary, our fast-growing EdTech business. SuperSummary is a subscription-based website and mobile app that offers a library of professionally written Study Guides and other educational tools and resources on thousands of books for students, teachers, book club members, and readers of all types.

About The Job

SuperSummary is seeking a Product Manager to help us bring new and innovative additions to our product suite as we evolve into a comprehensive suite of products serving diverse readers at every stage of their reading journey.

The ideal candidate is passionate about leading the end-to-end product lifecycle—from the ideation of new products based on user research, to the development, launch, and post-launch optimization of new features. This role will serve as the critical link that ties our product, design, content, and engineering tasks and teams together into seamless execution while working closely with senior leadership to keep our projects aligned with long-term goals.

Given the distributed nature of our team, this role is 100% remote. The majority of our product, design, and engineering teams are currently located in Brazil, while the rest of our team is distributed throughout the US and Latin America.

Key Responsibilities

To succeed in this role, you will be operating as an individual contributor but will also need to have excellent cross-functional coordination, organization, and management skills. As a Product Manager, you will naturally be the “glue” that ties the team’s design, engineering, content, and leadership contributors together. Your primary responsibilities are:

• Develop a strategic roadmap and OKRs for your squad, aligning efforts with company milestones to drive customer acquisition, retention, and lifetime value.
• Collaborate with your squad’s product designer and engineering manager to conduct user research, validate assumptions, and identify opportunities for impactful solutions.
• Facilitate the seamless handoff of projects from various stakeholders across the team, including researchers, content strategists, designers, and engineers; hold team members accountable to timelines to ensure the efficient progression of projects.
• Own product analytics (Google Analytics, Amplitude, Metabase), defining, tracking, and implementing data to inform decisions and generate insights for stakeholders.
• Turn complex opportunities into clear product specifications, while coordinating, QA’ing, and guiding design and engineering throughout the development cycle.
• Oversee release cycles, including A/B tests, beta testing, and rollouts—coordinating with marketing and communicating release notes.
• Collaborate across product, design, engineering, content, and leadership to drive key initiatives, ensuring alignment and clear communication.

Sample Projects

• Lead the research, development, and launch of new AI tools, like our Discussion Questions Generator.
• Independently conduct user interviews to uncover customer needs, pain points, and opportunities for development.
• Build and manage your squad’s product analytics, writing queries and crafting dashboards to communicate insights through clear and compelling storytelling.
• Plan and coordinate complex feature releases using A/B tests, feature flags, and beta tests, ensuring data-driven insights into customer behavior.

Job requirements

• 2-4 years of Product Management experience at innovative, high-growth companies
• Demonstrated track record of success defining, prioritizing, A/B testing, and launching excellent products to meet strategic objectives
• Excellent design sense and experience working closely with talented, user-centric designers
• Strong analytical skills, with the ability to assess feature adoption and understand what drives conversion and retention
