At Hightouch, our mission is to help our customers leverage data and AI to grow their businesses. The team is ambitious, impact-driven, efficient — and we believe humility, kindness, and compassion are essential to our success.

You'll drive roadmap and execution across the Real-Time suite: building specs and turning them into shipped product, partnering closely with engineering on architecture and scaling decisions, and representing the suite in front of some of the world's largest brands. You'll own the competitive research and customer evidence for the area, and shape the strategy and positioning for real-time across Hightouch.
At Hightouch, you'll be joining a world-class Product team that doesn't just talk about innovation. We live and breathe it. We're the team that invented Reverse ETL and pioneered the Composable architecture, fundamentally transforming the CDP landscape, and as we've evolved into a multi-product powerhouse, we've maintained a lean, high-impact Product team where each PM is a true owner, independently driving their product area to deliver direct business impact.

Technical depth. You can hold your own with engineers on systems design, architecture, and scaling tradeoffs, and turn those discussions into clear product decisions. You've shipped real product in a technical domain (data platforms, events, distributed systems, identity, or cross-product platforms).
Customer obsession. You get close enough to customers to separate what they really need from what they ask for, and you have the conviction to build for the need, even in front of large enterprise customers and in live deals.
Outcome mindset. You judge your work by the result it drove, not the amount you shipped.
Clear communication. You write clearly and have an ability to synthesize many moving parts into something engineers, customers, and execs can all act on.
Fast ramp. You've shown a history of picking up new concepts and new domains quickly and getting to real depth, and you lean into AI when you need to learn and ramp even faster.
