Senior Product Manager, Renter Engagement
Who we are
Realtor.com is your one stop shop for homebuyers, sellers, renters and dreamers, with comprehensive property listings, insightful information, valuable tools and professional expertise. We’re excited and hungry to make a difference to the millions of people in the US who seek a home each year. Our aspiration starts with treating renters as a focal point - we believe that delivering rich renter experiences that truly help people navigate the challenges of both searching for and living in a rental home, we can establish deep connections to those renters as they navigate their next rental, and aspire to homeownership.
What you will be doing…
To reflect our ambition to meet renters needs across the entire renter journey, we’ve created a special product role to focus on renter engagement beyond property search. We believe that there are a wide range of important problems that renters need help with, so we’ll look for you to explore how renters engage with their landlord to secure a rental, how they live in the rental they choose, and how they work to make the transition from renting into buying.
You’ll motivate and guide product development for renter engagement during their journey across renting, and into buying, working as part of a small, empowered team of designers and engineers. And because of the nature of this role, you’ll also be consulting and collaborating across many other product teams to bring all for experiences together. Together, with a clear mission in your heads and hearts, you’ll ship a lot of engaging, beautiful and personalised new product experiences that genuinely solve renter problems and delight them with what you create.
Day to day you can expect to:
- Work in tight, nimble partnership with your design and tech work teammates, sharing the sweat and joy of building stuff together
- Be celebrated for working with openness, trust, being humble, and being all about helping your team do great work
- Embrace ambiguity and help your team through it, laughing when we make a bad choice before figuring out what to try next
- Help embed a creative, goal-oriented and bold product culture, where we try new things, and are curious and open-minded with how to reach each goal
- Have plenty of variety, no two days are the same!
What are some of the benefits of this job …
- A generous base salary, complemented by an annual short term incentive
- Meaningful benefits, such as wonderful support for new parents, with a generous gender-neutral parental leave policy for both primary and secondary caregivers
- A manager and leadership dedicated to growing your skills, honing your strengths, engaging your passions, and allowing your to produce work you love
- An environment that welcomes your feedback, values different points of view, and is eager to bring new ideas to life
What we’re looking for…

- Blend of experience from workplaces large and small
