Job Description

At Lyft, our mission is to improve people’s lives with the world’s best transportation. To do this, we start with our own community by creating an open, inclusive, and diverse organization.

Lyft connects people to transportation to change the way we live and get around our communities. Lyft is also the country's leader in micro-mobility. We own and/or operate bikeshare in New York (Citi Bike), Chicago (Divvy), San Francisco (Bay Wheels), Portland (Biketown), Boston (BlueBikes), DC (Capital Bikeshare), and Minneapolis (Nice Ride) while providing scooter service in those and other major cities across the country. Our active fleet includes state-of-the-art electric bikes and scooters, services tens of millions of rides per year, and is rapidly growing.

We are looking for a product manager who brings exceptional creative, strategic, and analytical skills to drive forward a best in class product. Product management at Lyft leads the integration of engineering, data science, and design to achieve the company’s vision for reinventing transportation. Our business is growing rapidly, and we are looking for an entrepreneurial and passionate Product Manager to innovate and execute across a rapidly growing, fast paced company and industry.

As a product leader on our Operations Technology team, you’ll help develop the vision and lead execution of the platform for operating our bike and scooter-share systems profitably at scale. The team expands access to transportation by building the tools and models that ensure our bikes and scooters are available where our riders need them, when they need them, while minimizing the cost to deliver service. The ideal candidate can navigate complex technical topics, strategic problem solving, and close collaboration across teams to deliver business impact. If you’re driven, collaborative, resourceful, and can communicate complex ideas with ease, then we’d like to talk to you.

  • Communicate clearly roadmaps, priorities, experiments and decisions across a wide spectrum of audiences from partner teams to executive levels
  • Serve as a champion of our riders and their need for frictionless payments experiences at all levels of the company

  • Experience in the customer discovery and product requirement development process
  • 4+ years of experience in product management, product development or equivalent consultant experience.
  • Passion for Lyft and what we are trying to achieve in sustainable urban transportation
  • Excellent judgment and thoughtfulness about the dynamics of a product ecosystem
  • Ability to conceptualize, manage and prioritize multiple projects for stakeholders
  • Detail orientated with superior organizational skills — balancing multiple projects, deadlines, and requests should be second nature to you
  • Strong communication skills and intuition for communication strategy at every level — within teams, within the company, to users, to press, and other audiences

Benefits:

  • Great medical, dental, and vision insurance options
  • Mental health benefits
  • In addition to 12 observed holidays, salaried team members have unlimited paid time off, hourly team members have 15 days paid time off
  • 401(k) plan to help save for your future
