We are looking for a Global Product Manager. In this role, you will join a nimble product and design team responsible for defining and implementing the global product vision across multiple SaaS products and channels (mobile, desktop, tablet). You will work with and learn from engineers, designers, account managers, sales directors, customer support teams, and fellow product managers. Most of your time will be spent collaborating on solutions and driving those solutions through engineering sprints. A good chunk of your time will be spent on communicating the portion of the roadmap that you own. Some of your time will be spent conducting user research, validation, and testing. You will have the opportunity to hone your technical, design, business, and strategy skills while growing into a veteran product leader.

About us, but we’ll be brief

Experian is the world’s leading global information services company, unlocking the power of data to create more opportunities for consumers, businesses and society. We are thrilled to share that FORTUNE has named Experian one of the 100 Best Companies to work for. In addition, for the last five years we’ve been named in the 100 “World’s Most Innovative Companies” by Forbes Magazine.

Experian Partner Solutions is a leading provider of credit education, credit data and identity management solutions for businesses and their consumers. In 2016, Experian acquired Austin-based CSID, which was founded in 2006 by a few serial entrepreneurs with a passion for helping consumers protect something they treasure most – their identity. The company evolved into a fast-growing cybersecurity startup helping businesses, both large and small, and 30+ million consumers (including families) with identity/fraud protection and data breach recovery (think Fortune 500 retailer gets hacked and credit card numbers get stolen).
