The Position: As a Senior PM at Lightyear, you will be responsible for researching, scoping, designing, and implementing several of our key software features and tools that are disrupting enterprise telecom.

You will sit at the intersection of customers, GTM, and engineering - coordinating the conception and delivery of our most important product ideas. We’re an early stage company, so your position will play a heavy role in defining a product that customers both need and love.

This position will be full-time and salaried with competitive cash and equity compensation. The total cash compensation range is estimated to be within $150-180k. This position is fully remote.

Responsibilities for this role include:

  • Own the product vision for several key areas of Lightyear’s platform
  • Engage with the customer and sales to define and optimize requirements for features
  • Coordinate with engineering on feasibility, sprint planning, and shipping product
  • Create a first-class UI / UX experience (with help from internal design resources)
  • Help define the short, medium, and long term roadmap
  • Help implement a data-driven feature discovery and prioritization process
  • Coordinate with GTM and Operations to concept and drive success of pilots with prospective customers
  • Be a product evangelist - develop product collateral to market product progress

Our ideal candidate:

  • 4+ years experience working with enterprise or consumer software technologies as a product manager or software engineer
  • Has intense curiosity and passion to deeply understand the customer and problem space, with willingness to dive in the weeds throughout the process
  • Experience and enthusiasm taking product or processes from 0 to 1
  • Familiarity with software dev practices used to deploy applications and data systems
  • Some design skill (bonus: familiarity with design tools such as Figma, Sketch, etc.)
  • Bonus: Familiarity with the telecom industry

About Lightyear

Learn more about Lightyear and their company culture.

View company profile

At the heart of Lightyear is a culture driven by a mission to fix B2B telecom. The company recognizes that telecom is a consequential, multi-trillion dollar industry that powers digital interaction, yet it remains antiquated and resistant to change. This understanding fuels their passion to be a significant driver of real, positive, and durable change. To achieve this ambitious goal, Lightyear cultivates a culture that attracts and supports aspirational individuals who are passionate about solving complex problems. The team operates within a remote-first, distributed working environment, a testament to their belief that talent knows no geographic bounds. This structure fosters a high-trust, autonomous atmosphere where team members are empowered to drive their work forward as they see fit, balancing professional ambitions with personal and family obligations.

The company's core values are deeply embedded in its daily operations, likening the team to a professional sports team that is unequivocally 'here to win'. This ethos translates into a focus on high performance, continuous improvement, and a collective drive to be better every single day. They are not afraid to have tough discussions, admit faults, or make necessary changes to enhance output. A key tenet of their culture is embracing 'The Beginner's Mind', which means approaching challenges with humility, openness, and an eagerness to learn, free from the hubris often associated with incumbency. This mindset encourages constant experimentation, data-driven decision-making, and viewing measured failure as a necessary component of innovation. Problems are seen as opportunities for growth, with a focus on solutions rather than blame, fostering an optimistic and resilient environment where individuals take ownership and work collaboratively to overcome any obstacle.
