Job Description

Everything happens somewhere - which is why spatial analytics is fundamental to companies trying to understand the “where” and the “why” of their business. CARTO is the leading cloud-native location intelligence platform, trusted by data scientists, data analysts and developers from companies such as Vodafone, IKEA, Decathlon, Coca-Cola and Mastercard to provide geospatial insights for use cases such as site selection, geomarketing, route optimization, network planning and much more.

With an exceptionally diverse team of 150 people spread across the US and Europe, CARTO (backed by Insight Partners, Accel Partners, Salesforce Ventures, Earlybird Ventures, and Kibo Ventures, among others) is changing the way companies analyze location data - making it simple to do this straight out of modern, cloud data warehouses. Redefining its category, the company has grown rapidly in recent years providing a compelling alternative to legacy GIS software.

To continue this growth, the Product team is looking for a talented, experienced and customer-focused Product manager, to help us craft the best tools for developers who want to build Location Intelligence applications using our technology. We believe in teamwork, both fun and complex projects, and simple solutions.

Our Product team advocates for our users and our business, setting the vision for our growing family of products. We use data, research, strategy, and empathy to guide multidisciplinary teams toward a common goal, balancing diverse perspectives and empowering our teams to do great work.

The position is remote, preferably Central European Time zone. It’s also possible to work from our offices in Madrid or Seville.

You will

    • Collaborate with the different stakeholders across the organization to define the product strategy for the different tools for web app developers that we have in our platform (e.g. CARTO for deck.gl, CARTO for React, etc.), and by translating the business goals and customer needs into product specifications and outcomes.
    • Build different web applications to showcase the capabilities of our products and how Location Intelligence can solve complex problems for our customers. You need to be curious and enjoy putting on the user’s shoes to try and improve the product.
    • Collaborate with our cloud partners (Google, Amazon Web Services, Snowflake, Databricks, etc.) to ensure CARTO is the best solution to build location intelligence applications running on top of their platforms.
    • Work directly with our clients and partners, run workshops to understand how they develop solutions using our technology, identify improvements and needs to inform our product roadmap, etc.
    • Care about what the team is building, the quality of what is being shipped to the end-user, and maintaining a top class product documentation.
    • Manage and coordinate ongoing initiatives, collaborating with Engineering and Design teams to prototype, validate, coordinate, and iterate or ship new products.
    • Work closely with client-facing teams like Marketing, Support, and Sales to focus first on the customer/user-needs to understand the potential value and complexity of the problem before jumping into solutions and features.
    • Make evidence-based decisions and communicate them to the rest of the company. Be a proactive communicator that is customer and data-obsessed and can convey the meaningfulness of what we build to the broader team.
    • Measure and track the performance of ongoing initiatives, defining, implementing and tracking the right set of metrics.
