Principal Product Manager - Events

About the Role

• We're looking for a Staff or Principal Product Manager to own the strategy & direction of the Perk Events platform.

• This is a role for someone who thrives where complexity meets ambition: deep customer research, multi-stakeholder environments, and the creative challenge of building a new category of B2B SaaS. You will operate with extreme autonomy & ownership and will own the outcomes of the product.

• You’ll work closely with a Squad Lead (engineering), designers, and ops/commercial stakeholders to define and execute our product strategy. You will be the connective tissue between customer insight, business outcomes, and the squads building the product, the person who turns ambiguity into direction, and direction into shipped impact.

What You’ll Do

• Own the vision, strategy, and roadmap for our Events product, including how it integrates tightly with the broader Perk products.

• Drive high velocity execution with a world class team of making bold, fast bets informed customer feedback, data, market research, and deep intuition for how AI can reshape how teams operate.

• Stakeholder management: Partner with our event support operations and supply teams to ensure we build a cohesive tech and service offering that is appealing both to our customers and suppliers.

• Become an industry insider. Get familiar with the events industry (meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions) dynamics and supply chain, from supplier needs to event planner needs.

• Own the product metrics, how these tie to key business results and reporting of these to senior leadership.

• Prototype rapidly using tools like Claude and Cursor to accelerate the product development lifecycle and fast-forward to production-ready products.

• Stay deeply plugged into AI research, industry trends, and emergent applications, filtering signal from noise and applying it creatively to Perk products.

• Empower Your Team: Lead with a servant‑leadership approach to help stay focused, remove distractions, and foster creativity and collaboration.

What You’ll Need

• Ability to work independently when defining the product vision/strategy, translating it into a clear, well-planned roadmap, and getting the input and buy-in from relevant stakeholders.

• Fluency in data and how to make data-driven product decisions.

• Experience evaluating product decisions, prioritization trade-offs and translate them into a roadmap aligned with our business goals.

• Demonstrated ability to lead and influence small teams of engineers & designers toward a common goal.

• Ability to collaborate with multiple stakeholders and large cross‑functional teams.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

• Passion for AI, shown through hands‑on building, prototyping, or side projects, and staying current on research and tools.

• Fluency with modern prototyping tools (e.g. Cursor, Bolt, Claude Code) and comfort with design/collaboration environments like Figma and Git.
