About Brilliant Brilliant is making a world of great problem solvers. We focus on adults learning quantitative skills – especially in math, data, and CS/AI – and deliver a best-in-class interactive learning experience across web and apps. Our courses teach you what you need to know, while skipping the stuff you don't – so expect more about solving equations, statistical analysis, logical deduction, neural networks, and generative AI, and less about abstract theorems and integrating complicated trig functions. We serve hundreds of thousands of paid subscribers, and we're hoping you might be the right person to contribute to accelerating our footprint to millions of customers (and changed lives). In addition to what's below, you can see all open roles and learn more about our team culture on our careers page. We have always prioritized building a healthy business as the backbone of achieving our mission. We are default alive (will be profitable before needing to raise), have never had layoffs, are growing new customers at an exciting pace (high double-digits year-over-year). Our investors are top-tier + mission aligned, and we've kept our valuations tethered to reality – we aren't playing "catch up" like many others. In our day-to-day, we value adventure, excellence, generosity, and candor. We are optimists in the face of uncertainty, we take pride in our work, we go the extra mile for each other, and we tell it like it is (the good and the bad). We're all here to do the best work of our lives together, and have a lot of fun along the way. We believe that real-time collaboration and human connection are necessary ingredients in building a high-velocity, creatively-oriented consumer product. We maintain core hours (10am - 3pm Pacific) where everyone is online, regardless of timezone. Over half of us are located near our hubs in SF and NYC, and folks outside of those cities travel to attend team offsites once-per-quarter. The Role Lea is seeking a Product Manager to join the Learning Experience team. You'll be the 4th PM at Brilliant overall — you'll be responsible for executing on the learning experience product roadmap, leading feature development, and optimizing functionality of our core learning UI and systems. Your initial focus will be on product execution and delivery of core features to create a solid footing with our unique platform and pedagogy. Over time, you'll take on larger responsibilities and lead initiatives from conception through launch. Some features that the Learning Experience team shipped recently include our block-based coding environment, a new learning format called practice, and a way to author practice by our in-house content team. Your work will help learners around the world understand topics fromvector mathtopredicting with probabilitytohow LLMs workin an inspiring and interactive way. The transition from passive to active learning online is still in its infancy: come build the future of interactive learning with us! ResponsibilitiesCollaborate closely with pedagogy experts, interactive designers, and engineers to enhance the learning experience on our platformExecute on feature development and implement changes and experiments for the core learning experienceSupport the development of product roadmaps aligning with key company objectivesConduct data analysis, user research, and experiment design to inform product decisions and set simple proxy KPIsAssist in running user research, prototyping, shipping, and evaluating new features of the core learning experience, including collaborating with content authors and other stakeholdersDevelop a thorough understanding of our pedagogical approach and its constraints to ensure that the product roadmap facilitates the needs of course authors to express themselvesProvide clear communication across disciplines to align, organize and motivate team members towards shared goals that drive impactA keen interest in balancing the trade-offs between making authoring tools easy to use and ensuring a great user-facing experience, understanding how these aspects are deeply linked and impact overall business outcomesYou...Have a passion for driving growth and making an outsized business impactPossess core product management skills, including data analysis, A/B testing, user research, and managing the lifecycle of a featureAre proficient in evaluating technical constraints and integrating them into a product strategyComfortable working in small groups with experienced individual contributors, particularly designers and engineersHave a proven ability to prioritize, manage, and execute multiple tasks and projects in a fast-paced environmentHave (or are excited to develop) a deep understanding of the existing math, data and computer science digital learning landscapeYou should have2 years of experience in product management or 4 years in other relevant roles in consumer-facing products (e.g., design, engineering, learning content creation). Experience in bottoms-up SaaS products (like Slack or Figma) or mobile gaming are also likely fits.An affinity for quantitative topics (at least one of math, computer science, or data).A bias to "show, not tell" when communicating ideas. You can produce a fat-marker sketch, a basic Figma prototype, or a code-snippet.A CS degree or equivalent technical experience is preferred. We'd like you to be comfortable with technical concepts and not intimidated by looking at code or understanding simple programming logic (e.g., being able to identify what a "fizzbuzz" function does).Ideally (but not required), familiarity with API design and home-grown CMS systems.$145,000 - $190,000 a year
Compensation and Benefits We use a systematic compensation framework: salary scales are set each year for each job vertical, managers level folks on their team, and those levels are mapped directly to our compensation scales. A location-based adjustment is applied outside of SF and NYC (typically 5-10%) - feel free to ask us about your location! Given the systematic approach, we always make First and Best offers - there is no negotiation (for new hires nor our existing teammates). This ensures people are paid based on their expected contribution, not their negotiation skills. We offer top-notch health care plans, with 100% of the premiums covered for medical, dental, and vision for employees. About 1/3 of our team are parents, and we provide generous parental leave + up to $1900/mo in dependent healthcare coverage. We offer flexible PTO, with a norm of taking off about 6 weeks per year (including federal holidays). We also provide home office equipment, a professional development stipend, and free food at our offices. Our CCPA Privacy Notice can be found here.
