This is a great role for a Product Manager who has a couple of years of hands-on product experience under their belt and is ready to take on more ownership - someone who's comfortable running with a defined problem space, partnering closely with engineering and design day-to-day, and growing their strategic and technical range with the support of a more senior team. The specific product area will be shaped around team needs and your strengths, but you can expect to own meaningful, well-scoped pieces of the Sonos software and platform experience, working closely with a Principal Product Manager who can help you grow., Visa Sponsorship: Sonos is unable to sponsor or take over sponsorship of an employment visa for this role at this time. We ask that applicants be authorized to work for us in country of role posting, both now and in the future. What You'll Do * Own execution for a defined product area. Manage the day-to-day roadmap, backlog, and delivery for a specific feature set or workflow within a larger platform or experience. * Turn requirements into shippable plans. Take direction from senior PMs or leads and translate it into clear specs, user stories, and acceptance criteria that engineering and design can build against. * Represent the customer. Use research, data, and direct customer feedback to inform day-to-day decisions and advocate for a simple, reliable experience. * Sweat the details. Help hold the quality bar on your area - testing edge cases, catching gaps, and making sure things work the way customers expect, every time. * Collaborate closely with engineering and design. Be a reliable, easy-to-work-with partner in stand-ups, planning, and reviews, building trust through clarity and follow-through. * Communicate up and across. Keep stakeholders informed with clear status updates, well-organized docs, and thoughtful trade-off write-ups. * Build your strategic muscle. Work alongside senior PMs to learn how strategy, prioritization, and roadmap trade-offs are made - with room to take on more ownership over time. * Use AI to work smarter. Apply AI tools to speed up research synthesis, spec drafting, data analysis, and other day-to-day PM work, and bring a curious, experimental mindset to improving your own workflow. ## Related Videos - [Data Science in Retail](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/586-data-science-in-retail) - [Modern Web Development with Nuxt3](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/294-modern-web-development-with-nuxt3) - [Edit Your Future: Queerverse Radical AI](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/909-edit-your-future-queerverse-radical-ai) - [Stop Renaming Teams, Start Product Thinking: A PM's Guide to Platform-as-a-Product](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100342-stop-renaming-teams-start-product-thinking-a-pm-s-guide-to-platform-as-a-product) - [Architecting the Future: Leveraging AI, Cloud, and Data for Business Success](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1096-architecting-the-future-leveraging-ai-cloud-and-data-for-business-success) - [Data Science on Software Data](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/162-data-science-on-software-data) ## Related Articles - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [MLOps – What’s the deal behind it?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/125-mlops-what-s-the-deal-behind-it) - [What is product discovery and why do developers need it?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/517-what-is-product-discovery-and-why-do-developers-need-it) - [How software is steering vehicle technology](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/515-how-software-is-steering-vehicle-technology) - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [What is Software Engineering in the Age of AI?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/640-what-is-software-engineering-in-the-age-of-ai)
