THE ROLE
You will lead the end-to-end delivery of digital applications and services for a mission-driven NYC public-sector program improving access to child care for families across the city.

WHAT YOU''''LL DO

- Create roadmaps that set direction and timing for product development
- Synthesize user research, analytics, and best practices to define and validate that features solve real user problems

- Define and monitor outcomes and KPIs to drive evidence-based improvements
- Translate and prioritize user needs into requirements; guide program, UX, and engineering teams to deliver
- Write user stories, acceptance criteria, and system requirements; partner with UX and engineering on technical feasibility and architecture
- Collaborate with program owners and cross-agency stakeholders as partners and customers
WHAT WE''''RE LOOKING FOR (MUST-HAVES)
- 8+ years in a product role supporting the launch of digital features and products using SDLC best practices

- Proven ability to manage multiple products from strategy to executional detail
- Expertise using data to drive decisions and prioritize requests, enhancements, and features
- Experience synthesizing qualitative and quantitative data (e.g., Google Analytics) to make decisions
- Experience working across ecosystems, platforms, and new technologies
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills for complex challenges
- Best-in-class attention to detail with strong written and verbal communication

- Self-motivated, proactive, and collaborative
