Product Manager, Core Analytics

About the role

As a Product Manager for the Core Analytics team at Overstory you will work closely with a designer and engineers to build the capabilities of Overstory’s core product. The Core Analytics team is on an exciting mission to translate Overstory’s model outputs into analytics, tools and visualisations that our utility customers can use to make critical decisions in their everyday activities, via our web product.

Overstory’s product was launched three years ago and we are now at a stage of tremendous growth. The product needs to evolve to serve more customers use cases and to tackle more aspects of the climate resilience space. The Core Analytics team sets the foundation for many of these exciting cross-team developments.

Your job will be to lead the product development process, define customer problems to be solved, and build consensus around the best way to solve them with stakeholders across our business – e.g., in engineering, design, customer success, and senior leadership – while meeting our business objectives. You’ll work in an agile manner, learning from our customers, iterating quickly, and deciding when to build for a scalable future and when to hack it together. The role will encompass all hands-on PM work such as writing problem statements, balancing product discovery with shipping fast and deciding on success metrics. It will also include defining team roadmaps, contributing to product strategy and supporting internal teams during the delivery process. 

About you / What a successful candidate looks like

You have a passion for the urgency of solving our climate crisis. You’re comfortable with the ambiguity that comes with working at an early-stage startup and you don’t need to have everything well defined before you act. You can think both short- and long-term so that you can meet near-term deadlines while iterating toward a future vision. You’re able to zoom out and think strategically, while also being extremely detail-oriented in the hands-on work of building a product. You know how to build trust across functions, communicate clearly, and bring people along as things change.
