Product Manager Jobs in Web3

About The Role:

Pagoda is shepherding a future where NEAR becomes the blockchain operating system. We believe that re-inventing how software is made and distributed is our greatest opportunity to open economic access to those who are not fully integrated into the global economy. Our products empower people to find opportunity, invent new experiences, and collaborate. Let's build an Open Web world. A world where people control their assets, data, and power of governance.

The Product team uses creativity, insights, and operational excellence to steer our product vision across Pagoda and the NEAR Ecosystem. This team of designers, open source advocates, and product managers work in a highly collaborative environment to build the products and experiences that bring our community together in new and special ways.

As a PM on the Engagement team, you will be at the center of building out decentralized messaging and communication systems. Working cross-functionally across the ecosystem, you will be tasked with optimizing team collaboration by iterating on new ways to use blockchain to communicate in a secure and decentralized way. Your work will result in fundamental shifts in how people connect on the internet and a better experience for Web3 users everywhere. This is an influential and strategic role within the organization and broader open source ecosystem.

• Excellent critical thinking skills and a proven ability to solve challenging problems
• Ability to make timely decisions without clear direction or all the information at all times
• Ability to deliver exceptional results in an intense but collaborative and kind environment
• A team player
• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience
• Ideally 3+ years of product management, design or program management experience at a technology company
