TITLE:Remote Associate Product Manager jobs – Full‑Time, Agile Scrum, Data‑Driven Product Lead (Entry‑Level) – $70‑90kSalary – North Augusta, South Carolina –Remote – JIRA/Confluence/SQL --- Who we are We’re a midsized SaaS company building a platform that helps small‑to‑mid‑market retailers manage inventory, loyalty programs, and omnichannel sales. In the last 18 months we grew our user base from 12 K to 45 K active merchants, and our ARR climbed from $2.3 M to $6.9 M – a 200 % jump. Most of that growth came from the product team’s focus on rapid experimentation and the ability to ship new features without waiting for a monolithic release cycle.Our headquarters are in North Augusta, South Carolina, but we’ve been remote‑first for three years. The reason we’re hiring a new Associate Product Manager today is simple: we just landed a $12 M Series B round that expands our roadmap from a handful of quarterly releases to a rolling six‑week cadence. We need fresh eyes to help triage ideas, own small feature buckets, and keep the data loop tight. What you’ll own You’ll join a product squad of eight (two engineers, one data analyst, a UX designer, a senior product lead, and a QA tester).In the first 90 days you’ll be responsible for: * Feature ownership – From concept to release, you’ll shepherd one or two low‑to‑mid‑complexity features. For example, last quarter we launched a “bulk discount” rule that lifted conversion on the checkout page by 15 % and reduced cart abandonment by 2 pp. * Backlog grooming – You’ll collaborate with the senior product lead to prioritize the JIRA board, ensuring the top 15 items align with our OKRs (Revenue + 10 % Q/Q, churn ‑ 5 % YoY). * Data‑driven validation – Using SQL, Mixpanel, and Amplitude you’ll set up experiments, run A/B tests, and translate findings into actionable tickets.* Stakeholder sync – You’ll host a weekly 30‑minute sync with the Customer Success lead in North Augusta, South Carolina and a bi‑weekly demo for the sales ops team in the same city. This keeps the voice of the field embedded in the product backlog. You won’t be alone. You’ll lean on a senior product manager who oversees the broader “Retail Experience” umbrella, and you’ll have a mentor from the product ops squad who will help you set up your first dashboards in Tableau within two weeks. A day in the life (remote edition) *8:00 am – Stand‑up on Slack huddle.* You give a quick status: “Feature X is in code review, awaiting QA sign‑off; test plan ready in Confluence.” *9:00 am – Deep dive in JIRA.* You assess the sprint burndown chart, re‑rank a backlog item after spotting a high‑impact request from the analytics team (a new segment filter for merchant cohorts).*11:00 am – Customer interview.* You jump on a 30‑minute Zoom call with a power user in North Augusta, South Carolina who describes a friction point with the loyalty program UI. You jot notes in Notion, tag the UX designer on Figma, and add a “quick win” story to the backlog. *1:00 pm – Data crunch.* You write a SQL query to pull funnel metrics for the newly launched bulk discount, compare it against the control group, and create a Tableau visual that shows a 12 % lift in order value. *3:00 pm – Design review.* You and the designer walk through the wireframes for the upcoming “gift card” feature, using Figma comments to capture small accessibility tweaks.*4:30 pm – Sprint retro.* The squad reflects on the last sprint: “We kept the cycle to 6 weeks and shipped three features, but our bug regression rate rose to 8 % (target ≤ 5 %). Let’s add a regression testing checklist in GitHub Actions.”The cadence is deliberately structured to avoid endless meetings. Most of our async work happens in Confluence, Notion, and Slack, with a few focused video calls each week. Why North Augusta, South Carolina matters to us Even though the role is remote, we maintain strong ties to our hometown of North Augusta, South Carolina.Our engineering hub sits there, and we run quarterly “Product Camp” days where the whole team gathers (in person or via a hybrid stream) for a marathon of brainstorming, retro, and hack‑athon sessions. The connection to North Augusta, South Carolina also gives us a local pulse on retail trends – the city’s downtown merchants are early adopters of our platform, and their feedback shapes the roadmap. The tools we love (and the ones you’ll master) 1. JIRA & Confluence – For agile planning, ticketing, and documentation.2. SQL (PostgreSQL) – Basic queries for funnel analysis. 3. Mixpanel & Amplitude – Event‑level analytics and experiment tracking. 4. Tableau – Dashboard creation for senior leadership. 5. Figma – Collaborative design reviews and prototyping. 6. Slack – Daily communications, with dedicated channels for each squad. 7. Google Analytics 4 – Web‑traffic insights. 8. GitHub – Code reviews and release notes (you’ll read PRs, not write code). 9. Notion – Knowledge base, meeting notes, and roadmap docs. 10. Trello – Personal task board for side‑projects.You don’t need to be an expert in all of these on day one, but you should be comfortable navigating at least five and eager to learn the rest. Metrics we track (the proof is in the numbers) * Feature velocity: 3–4 releases per quarter from the associate level. * Revenue impact: New features contribute an average of $250 K incremental ARR each release. * Customer satisfaction (CSAT): Target > 85 % on post‑release surveys. * Bug regression: Goal ≤ 5 % after each sprint. When you see these numbers improving, you’ll know your work is making a difference.What we’re looking for * 2‑3 years of experience in a product‑adjacent role (associate PM, product analyst, or business analyst). * Comfort with data: you can write a simple SELECT statement, interpret a funnel, and tell a story. * Excellent written communication – you’ll be drafting briefs in Confluence that the engineering team in North Augusta, South Carolina will rely on. * Customer empathy – you enjoy talking to merchants, hearing their pain points, and turning that into specs. * A bias for action – we ship fast, so we need people who can make decisions with imperfect information.Nice‑to‑have: familiarity with retail SaaS, exposure to A/B testing frameworks, or a certification in Scrum (CSM or equivalent). Our remote‑first promise We’ve been remote for three years, and we’ve learned that flexibility is most valuable when it comes with clear expectations. You’ll receive a home‑office stipend of $1,200 per year, a monthly internet allowance, and an annual “off‑site week” where the whole product team meets in North Augusta, South Carolina for two days of deep‑work and one day of city tours (we’ll stop by the local farmers market, because why not?).Compensation & benefits * Salary: $70 k – $90 k US DOE (based on experience). * 100 % of health, dental, and vision premiums covered for you (spouse/partner optional). * 401(k) with 4 % company match. * 15 days of paid time off per year, plus public holidays observed in the US. * Professional development budget of $2 500 per year (courses, conferences, books). * Quarterly “Wellness Day” – company‑wide paid day off for mental‑health recharge. A human moment > “When I first rolled out the bulk‑discount feature, a store owner in North Augusta, South Carolina messaged me at 10 pm saying his sales jumped that night.He sent a photo of the dashboard with a smiley face.
