Product Manager | Software
About The Position
Plasmidsaurus is on a mission to accelerate new cures and promote a healthier planet by unlocking a new level of productivity for scientists. Our sequencing services are used daily by thousands of innovators, including Nobel laureates, Fortune 100 pharma, and over 70,000 scientists. We began by revolutionizing plasmid sequencing, making it exponentially cheaper and faster, with innovative sequencing technologies and a global network of laboratories that turn samples into answers in hours, not weeks. Now we are expanding that same disruptive model across all of genomics. With the launch of our new RNA-seq service, we are taking a bold step toward our vision to sequence everything, providing scientists everywhere with faster, simpler, and more affordable access to the data that powers discovery. Every team member at Plasmidsaurus plays a crucial role in driving the future of biotech research. Together, we are building the world’s most efficient sequencing engine that operates overnight, scales globally, and helps scientists make breakthroughs faster than ever before. The role Ordering DNA sequencing is famously miserable: you email a sales rep, wait, get a PDF back, fill another form for the order, or wait for barcodes shipped to you. One reason scientists choose us is that we have one of the best websites in biotech that gets you from research idea to order placed in minutes. We are hiring a Product Manager to own the UX and growth of the non-biology aspects of our web app. You will talk to our users, create clarity for our engineering teams, and make all facets of the customer experience from first hearing about Plasmidsaurus to becoming a long-term customer. We operate worldwide and are scaling rapidly - serving everyone from grad students to Fortune 100 pharma.
Requirements
- A track record of shipping, you have made significant contributions to shape a B2B product into something customers love.
- Agency. You don't wait for someone to hand you a brief. You get hands-on with analytics, book your own user interviews, build prototypes, and keep engineers up to date.
- Your preferred communication style is for prototypes over PRDs, Claude artifacts, standalone HTML.
- Great product judgment and UX sense.
- You can ramp fast in technical domains. No science background required, but you should be energized by complexity and willing to learn.
Nice To Haves
- You are comfortable shipping code, AI-assisted or not.
- You have worked at a small company where you were the PM.
- You got obsessed with a problem and built something to solve it, even though nobody asked you to.
Responsibilities
- Talk to world-class researchers about moving their science faster.
- Distill the customer voice into a roadmap with our engineering teams.
- Create incredible user experiences.
- Own the surfaces that aren't sequencing: onboarding, collaboration, payments, order and logistics tracking, account settings, emails, internationalization, workspaces and sharing.
- Improve analytics and visibility into key customer workflows.
- Find where users drop off in onboarding, ordering, and sharing results, then run experiments to fix it.
Benefits
- Ownership and impact.
- A tower office in South San Francisco with bay views, a state-of-the-art lab, and the occasional batch of liquid nitrogen ice cream.
