The Problems You'll Solve

At Carta, our employees set out on a mission to unlock the power of equity ownership for more people in more places. We believe that the problems we solve today unlock the opportunities of tomorrow. As a Lead Product Manager, you will work across our platform to ensure our offerings remain market-leading and transformative.

The Team You'll Work With

At Carta, we believe in a collaborative and inclusive approach to hiring that maximizes both candidate experience and team fit. Our hiring model allows us to match candidates with the team that aligns best with their skills, experience, and career aspirations. At the final stage of our interview process, you'll have the chance to gain insights into the respective domains we're hiring for.

About You

We are looking for a strong product leader who can drive strategy, prioritization, and product delivery. If you are passionate about building intuitive solutions to complex problems and have a desire to impact how ownership is managed and distributed around the world, we’d love to talk with you.

  • You have 7+ years experience in product management in a high-paced, agile software development environment, with a proven track record of shipping impactful products.
  • You have several years of experience in building products at startups in cross-functional teams with product designers, engineers, and business partners.
  • You are empathic and driven by solving problems for your users. You have the ability to dig deep into their problems and really understand what drives them.
  • You are a systems thinker and solve problems in a holistic way. You draw data flow diagrams in your sleep and complexity makes you salivate. 
  • You traverse between altitudes with ease. You can think big picture on product strategy in one moment and then get in the trenches to solve a calculation definition issue in the next.
  • You are resourceful and scrappy in the right ways. You know when to invest versus stand-up fake doors to validate a hypothesis. You understand that sometimes the best path forward may not be through building software.

  •  $204,000 - 240,000 in San Francisco, CA; Santa Clara, CA; New York, NY

We are hiring for multiple levels and locations, so final offers may vary from the amounts listed based on geography, experience and expertise, and other factors.
