We're committed to bringing passion and customer focus to the business...
At WP Engine, we love our Managed WordPress hosting customers. They’ve been the bedrock of our business for over a decade. These entrepreneurial, creative and digital-first creators continue to push what’s possible online.
The more we learn about our customers, we understand they are skilled, savvy and opinionated. And when they pay us for hosting, they also want to be made aware of the value those WP Engine products bring to them and their business. Ideally, this information would be shared clearly, through easy to access digital channels. Additionally, when their next big idea strikes, they want the opportunity to try, buy, upgrade and add-on when they need - without the need for gatekeepers or middlemen.
So, there is a need to create a global, unified, self-serve platform for our customers to manage and grow their sites, and experience and purchase our products digitally on their own – at the point of inspiration in their journey – at the time of their own convenience. Hence, a product-led experience is preferred to a sales-led one. This means that we need to rethink our approach to product-led growth, from our messaging, to our trials and tiers, to our onboarding and support experiences. And we are looking for a seasoned product leader to drive this effort.
The Day To Day
• Be responsible for product-led growth at WP Engine
• Own our self service business, driving both the revenue and cost of acquisition sides along with our demand generation team
• Drive strategic decisions to change trial terms, launch new packages, and invent new ways to turn prospects and evaluators into happy customers
• Design, build, and run experiments to determine the best paths and offerings
Your Ideal Background
• 8 - 10+ years of progressive experience in SaaS Product Management, including experience with product-led growth
• Deeply analytical, digging into the data to understand not just what’s happening, but also what to do next
• Strategic in nature, not just optimizing what we’re already doing, but inventing new approaches that we haven’t thought of yet
• Technically deep, able to understand the needs and tools of WP Engine customers as well as prospects
• Well versed in product-led growth, and how to use product experiences to drive new customers, increased spending, but also overall customer satisfaction
The Perks And Benefits
• Company Stock Options (Every employee is an owner in the company)
• Great Health Benefits (Medical, Dental, Vision, Life Insurance)
• Fertility Benefits (IVF/Fertility drug coverage)
• HSA Company contribution $500 for employee / $1000 for family
