Product Operations Manager

ProShop ERP • Chicago, IL

1d • Remote

About The Position

We are hiring a Product Operations Manager who is a high-leverage doer. Someone who makes the product team more effective by doing the work, not creating process overhead for others. This is not a role for someone who designs templates and schedules meetings. It is for someone who rolls up their sleeves, moves fast with AI tools, and helps ship better products by owning the customer intelligence, analytics programs, and operational artifacts that keep the product org running.
You will sit at the intersection of customer insight, product data, and go-to-market readiness. You will own programs, produce real deliverables, and be the connective tissue between product and the rest of the company.

Requirements

• 3–6 years in product management, product operations, project management or a closely related role at a B2B SaaS company
• Startup or small-team background strongly preferred — you are used to doing more with less and do not need heavy direction
• Genuinely hands-on with AI tools in your current or recent work — you use them daily to move faster, not as an experiment
• Able to identify a repetitive workflow and independently build an AI-assisted solution for it
• Experience with Pendo or a comparable product analytics platform (tagging, instrumentation, reporting)
• Strong written communication — you produce clear, crisp deliverables that do not need heavy editing
• Analytically comfortable — you can work with product usage data, build a dashboard, and tell a story from metrics
• Customer-facing confidence — you can run a CAB session, interview a customer, and synthesize what you heard
• Cross-functional savvy — you know how to work with PMM, CX, Sales, and Engineering without creating noise

Nice To Haves

• Experience in ERP, manufacturing software, or industrial SaaS is a plus but not required

Responsibilities

• Own the end-to-end VOC program for product: collecting, synthesizing, and distributing customer insights from NPS, support signals, sales calls, and Gong/call analysis
• Deliver actionable synthesis, not raw data to product, PMM, CX, and leadership so teams can act on what customers are saying
• Build and maintain systems and tools for routing the right insights to the right teams at the right time
• Own CAB end-to-end: recruit and manage the member list, set cadence and agenda, facilitate sessions when needed, and close the loop with participants
• Translate CAB conversations into structured input that directly informs roadmap and prioritization discussions
• Own the Early Access group. Helping recruit the right customers, coordinating with PMs on what is being tested, and managing communication cadence so participants feel valued and stay engaged
• Gather and synthesize structured feedback during access periods to support go/no-go and refinement decisions
• Own and administer Pendo as the primary product analytics tool — ensuring features, pages, and events are properly tagged and instrumentation is accurate and up to date
• Partner with Engineering and Product to audit tagging coverage, close gaps, and maintain data integrity so adoption reporting can be trusted
• Establish and enforce tagging standards and naming conventions so data is consistent across the product and over time
• Own creation and maintenance of product adoption metrics and key product KPIs including feature adoption, engagement trends, and usage patterns by customer segment
• Build and maintain the dashboards and reports that PMs and leadership rely on to understand product health and make prioritization decisions
• Connect quantitative usage data with qualitative VOC signals to surface the insights that matter most
• Work closely with PMM, CX, Sales, and Support to ensure the right product context flows to the right teams ahead of launches and updates
• Assist in writing and producing the artifacts the product team needs: such as product briefs, internal and external release notes, screenshots, demos, etc.
• Own the quality and timeliness of these outputs. This is a producing role, not a delegating role
• Using AI tools daily to automate repetitive PM workflows — call transcript summarization, feedback tagging, competitive intel pulls, release note drafts, and research briefs
• Treating AI as a force multiplier for synthesis and insight, not just documentation
• Building automated processes that keep data and reporting current without manual overhead
• Continuously identifying the next workflow to accelerate and then actually building it
• Redesigning how product work gets done.
