About the position
As a Product Manager on the Consumer team, you’ll shape how neighbors discover, return to, and engage with Nextdoor across core surfaces like feed, alerts, invites, and growth loops. You’ll be the bridge between curiosity and data-driven insight, ensuring that every decision is rooted in real user behavior and measurable impact. We’re looking for a product thinker with strong instincts and an experimental spirit - someone who thrives in ambiguity, enjoys working across multiple surfaces, and blends design intuition with a deep respect for data. You’ll partner closely with engineering, marketing, data science, research, and design to uncover high-leverage opportunities, run meaningful experiments, and ship features that drive intentional usage and genuine community connection. This role is ideal for someone energized by broad scope and eager to explore how product mechanics, user behavior, and data intersect. You’ll influence foundational experiences across Nextdoor, using a combination of metrics, experimentation, and user insights to help define what success looks like in a community-driven product.
