Hi, I’m Somer, VP of Product at Customer.io.

I’m looking for a Senior Product Manager to join our CDP team. You'll tackle a challenging opportunity: taking our Customer Data Platform product from 1 to 100.

At Customer.io, we enable companies to create highly personalized messaging journeys that impact millions of people every day. Our customers are fellow product-led growth companies who use emails, SMS, in-apps, and mobile push notifications to accelerate their customers’ “Aha!” moment.

Our Customer Data Platform connects the data needed for such messaging journeys from and to wherever it needs to go: APIs, data warehouses, marketing automation tools, ad platforms, analytics tools, CRMs, and more.

Our vision is to evolve the CDP into the ultimate data experience for product-led growth professionals who aren’t comfortable with code. Do I use the first_name or the firstName attribute? When and why does the signup_validated event fire? These questions stop most users in their tracks. We need you to unblock them!

This role is perfect if you enjoy getting into the weeds with customers, designers, and engineers as much as you enjoy building alignment with senior leadership. Both are critical for success.

You’ll work within a supportive and disciplined product environment, and at a company with strong financials. Check out this report for an overview of how we stand out.

What you'll do

Lead the CDP Squad in achieving strategic outcomes with solutions that are:

  • Valuable (our customers choose to use)
  • Viable (the solution works within the constraints of the business)
  • Usable (our customers can figure out how to use)
  • Feasible (our engineers have the skills and technology to implement)

Contribute a deep knowledge of customer data integration, identity resolution, and the related competitive landscape.

What we're looking for

  • Working hours that overlap with 9 AM to 3 PM Central Daylight Time
  • 5+ years of product management experience in a software development setting
  • 2+ years on a CDP, Reverse ETL, Data Warehouse, or Integration-as-a-Service product
  • Alignment-building expertise - you listen, understand, and influence at a near-executive level
  • Product-led Growth experience - you’ve used marketing automation tools before
  • Fluency with concepts like unique identifier, API, ETL - an Engineering background is a plus
  • Data proficiency - you can source, analyze, and present quantitative and qualitative data
  • Excellent writing skills - you write clearly and concisely, favoring plain language over jargon
  • Initiative - you take ownership of problems when next steps aren't clear

Voluntary Self-Identification

For government reporting purposes, we ask candidates to respond to the below self-identification survey. Completion of the form is entirely voluntary. Whatever your decision, it will not be considered in the hiring process or thereafter. Any information that you do provide will be recorded and maintained in a confidential file.

As set forth in Customer.io’s Equal Employment Opportunity policy, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected group status under any applicable law.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
