Job description

We're Karat, the world's largest interviewing company.

Karat is transforming organizations around the world. We provide a powerful system for technical leaders at companies like PayPal, Atlassian, and Citi who want to take control of how they hire top engineers, elevate their teams and contractors, and stay ahead. At the core of Karat’s system are live, expert-led interviews, analytics designed to give leaders maximum visibility, and the most robust interview performance dataset in the world.

Come join our Product team

Our Product team is committed to driving forward Karat’s mission to make interviews predictive, fair, and enjoyable. We are focused on providing deeper value to engineering and talent leaders, hiring managers, recruiters, candidates, and Interview Engineers.

What you will do

As Principal Product Manager, you will own the product vision, strategy, and execution for our interview platform. Working directly with the VP of Product, you'll leverage deep user empathy and product thinking to create experiences that evolve alongside rapid AI advancements in software development, while collaborating across engineering, content, design, and go-to-market teams to deliver high-impact solutions that transform how companies evaluate talent.

This position requires a schedule that overlaps with U.S. business hours.

  • Product Strategy & Innovation: Help define the roadmap for our product suite; evaluate how we should leverage AI to provide a stronger signal and measure of a candidate’s technical capabilities; collaborate with leadership to shape Karat's strategy in the evolving technical assessment market.
  • Product Development & Execution: Prioritize features based on customer needs and business objectives; partner with engineering, content, and UX teams to deliver high-quality solutions.
  • Analytics & Insights: Analyze assessment data to improve accuracy; design experiments to evaluate different approaches; leverage our database of hundreds of thousands of candidates to enhance our signal on candidate performance.
  • Market & Customer Focus: Monitor performance metrics and identify opportunities for improvement; partner with Go-to-Market (GTM) teams on expansion strategies; develop compelling business cases for new offerings.

The experience you will bring

  • 8+ years of product management experience working on B2B and B2C offerings, and ideally, past experience working as a software developer
  • Track record of working directly with B2B clients in a SaaS environment — comfortable in customer discovery calls, QBRs, and translating enterprise feedback into product decisions
  • Demonstrated experience defining, launching, selling, and scaling successful products with proven business impact
  • Ability to engage with senior, highly technical leaders at large enterprises on topics related to evaluating core software developer fundamentals
  • Excellent communication skills; able to explain complex technical concepts to diverse stakeholders and lead cross-functional teams
  • Successful experience in executive presentations, ability to communicate business value, as well as product features/benefits, and gain executive buy-in
