Mangrove Systems

Product Manager

About Us

We are on a mission to accelerate the deployment of climate solutions by precisely quantifying decarbonization. We do this by developing the fabric that connects technology, policy and markets to every project developer.

Our Values

We are Tenacious

We are relentlessly focused on solving important problems for our customers that will help their carbon projects be more successful in improving the health of our climate.

We are Precise

Trust is paramount. At Mangrove we operate with surgical precision because we know that the success of our customers' carbon projects relies on their unwavering trust in our data and our platform’s meticulous ability to track CO2 and its respective emissions.

We are Thoughtful

We believe that the right solution requires a deep understanding of our customers’ needs and challenges. This understanding is manifested in every design and every solution that we build.

About the Role

We are seeking a Product Manager to drive the development and success of our core carbon accounting and reporting products at Mangrove. This person will own product specifications end-to-end, ensuring quality, and where needed, act as the product before it exists in the market.

This is a rare opportunity to be at an industry leader and shape a solution that is crucial to scaling decarbonization: transparent, auditable MRV. We set the bar extremely high for ourselves: your past track record should speak to your commitment to helping users solve hard problems, and your proven ability to overcome constraints and build the best solution.

The Problems You Will Get to Solve

  • Empowering carbon projects with compliant reporting
  • Creating an industry-standard system for precise carbon accounting
  • Managing data at scale
  • Automating report and insight generation
  • Tailoring MRV features to specific pathways
  • You will own requirements, specifications, and product marketing, focusing on delivering outcomes

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience as a software product manager building data-intensive applications in high-growth environments
  • You have worked with big data. In our world, data is the product. Our projects need to make sense of hundreds of thousands of datapoints on a regular basis. You are required to be quantitatively-minded, but you should bring it all together in a digestible way to get users to insights faster.
  • You are comfortable gleaning customer insights through sales conversations, interviews, and continuous feedback loops. You can sense strategic opportunity and open those doors wherever possible.
  • Demonstrated ability to independently prototype and validate early ideas quickly
  • You'll recommend PR changes to improve usability, be a primary technical contact for Mangrove, test APIs, define data schemas, and own product considerations for technical features like data fetches and transformations.
  • Review functionality in development to confirm correct, well-designed implementation
  • You have a strong intuition on how to deliver a customer experience through a thoughtful interface, while allowing manual fulfillment to start where appropriate
  • Comfortable with Git, Markdown, Python or Ruby

Skills & Traits We Value

  • Proven ability to build: you’ve founded a company, owned a product in a larger organization and/or built a software product from the ground up
  • A sense of urgency and a bias towards execution: You ruthlessly prioritize, make smart tradeoffs, and use tools like AI to automate tasks, unblocking your team and focusing on core issues without needing direction.
  • Drawn to solving hard technical problems with elegance and clarity.
  • You do not re-invent the wheel: Leverage existing patterns and best practices to find quick, effective solutions.
  • You do well within distributed teams: Colleagues and customers are in many different locations - you are comfortable in a high-transparency, high-communication culture.
  • Clear communicator: You adapt messages for technical and non-technical audiences, staying focused on immediate goals, and connecting well with customer leadership.
  • Experience at early-stage companies: You’re keenly aware of the goals and priorities. You can do the slow process well but also the fast things fast
  • Lead by example: You set an example by operating with kindness and integrity. You play well within a team with no ego, willing to share credit and take responsibility.

Compensation & Equity

  • Competitive salary
  • Meaningful equity stake
  • Comprehensive benefits

Culture & Growth

  • High-impact role with direct influence on company direction
  • Work with a dedicated team focused on delivering impact in key decarbonization pathways including carbon removal and low carbon fuels
  • Flexible work arrangements (remote/hybrid)
  • Semi-annual team on-sites in Toronto
