You’ll be responsible for investigating, assessing, and prioritizing opportunities for Brigad’s product, building an expertise on the markets in which Brigad operates in and its competitive landscape.
Taking advantage of your strong connection with our users, you’ll be advocating for their point of view, especially regarding short to mid-term staffing needs. On top of that, your business acumen will help you find the equation that makes sense for the company’s strategy.

You will operate as a team with Product Designers and Product Engineers to drive a strategic campaign with long-term goals. As such, you will have full ownership over your roadmap and will contribute to delivering impactful initiatives to reach those goals.

As one of the most senior members of the Product team, we expect you to inspire others by sharing feedback and learnings, and mentor other Product Managers in growing their practice.

    • 📐 Align stakeholders with your strategy, promoting collaboration with other departments such as Sales, Customer Care, and Legal
    • 🚀 Define and coordinate Go To Market strategies with Product Marketing and Sales to ensure successful product launches and sustained market impact
    • 📊 Define and monitor success metrics to inform your choice and assess if your work moved the needle and helped us reach our objectives
    • 🌱 Grow and share in your practice, seeking innovative ways to address user needs and share learnings with the whole Product & Tech team

About You:

    • You have 10+ years of experience in building products, preferably platforms or marketplaces

Recruitment Process:

    • A first interview with our Talent Acquisition

The Experience We Offer
We live by our values in many ways to create the best experience possible for our employees.

Brave: We strongly believe that for the same job and level, employees should be equally paid. We’ve developed our internal salary grid to ensure equity among employees. We want Brigad’ success to be your success too: we grant BSPCEs to all our employees, we know joining a scale up sometimes means navigating into the unknown.

Impact: Being a mission driven company means having an impact on the society and also on our employees. We are proud to be an Eco responsible company, engaged on several CSR projects (Diversity with Tech Your Place,…). We have chosen to maintain salaries during maternity/paternity leave. All employees can take advantage of this benefit, no matter their tenure at Brigad. We also offer 4 additional days of leave in the month following the return from maternity/paternity leave, to enable employees to ease back into work in the best possible conditions.

Care: We identify ourselves as an office first company but with a flexible working environment where you don’t have to chose between working or spending time with the people you care the most. We offer up to 2 days of remote work per week and for our employees having parents/grandparents living in another country, we offer them a full remote week to spend more time with them every year.

Enjoy: We enjoy working together not just through company monthly events or seminars, but also by learning together. We’ve created career ladders for our teams, with real opportunity to develop new skills, expertise, and grow in a new role with our internal mobility program. We also offer English and French classes and other learning programs depending on your team (using 360Learning).

Brigad ensures equal opportunities for all candidates. Each application received is considered regardless of ethnic and racial origin, opinions, beliefs, gender, sexual orientation, health or disability.

We believe that people are more than their resumes, so if your past experience looks different than the criteria listed, we'd still love to hear from you. We appreciate and celebrate non-traditional life routes and encourage you to apply should you connect with a job description or our values.
