Product Manager, Design

Vagaro • Pleasanton, CA • 1h ago

Why Vagaro? At Vagaro, we believe in fostering a collaborative and inclusive work environment where every team member can thrive. Our culture is built on innovation, continuous learning, and a passion for making a positive impact. We support our employees' growth and vision for themselves, offering opportunities for professional development and career advancement. Join us and be part of a team that values creativity, teamwork, and a commitment to excellence. Plus, we know how to have fun while getting the job done!

What you'll Be Doing: We're looking for a mid-level contributor who thinks like a PM and builds like a designer - someone who takes full ownership of features from first question through post-launch iteration. This isn't a handoff role. You define the problem, design the solution, partner with engineering through build, and validate the outcome. You bring both product judgment and design craft, and you use AI as a core part of how you work.

This role is based onsite in Pleasanton, CA Monday through Friday

Compensation

Base Annual Salary: $105,000 - $125,000

Annual Bonus: Up to 10%

Your Impact:

At this level, you are expected to:

Own the product direction of your features - problem framing, requirements, tradeoffs, scope, and delivery

Operate as both the product lead and the hands-on designer for your projects

Leverage AI across your workflow to multiply your output and the quality of your thinking

Partner with engineering as a peer throughout build - not just at handoff

Validate rigorously so your project is the single source of truth, end-to-end

This role reflects where product work is heading in 2026: the lines between PM, design, and engineering are blurring, and the strongest contributors own the full product lifecycle rather than a single functional slice. You are that contributor.

What you Bring:

2-4+ years in product design, product management, or a hybrid role

Portfolio or case studies showing both product thinking and design execution

Strong ownership mindset - you drive problems to solutions without waiting to be directed

Fluent in AI tools across research, design, requirements writing, and prototyping

Comfortable in ambiguity - you structure unclear spaces and maintain momentum

Clear, direct communicator who names tradeoffs rather than glossing over them

Proficiency in Figma and modern prototyping tools

Experience with design systems and cross-functional engineering collaboration

Nice to Have:

Experience collaborating with distributed engineering teams

Formal PM training (e.g., Reforge, Product School) or design education

Why You'll Love Working Here:

Attractive Compensation & Performance Bonuses: Enjoy a competitive salary paired with performance-based bonuses

Generous PTO: 15 accrued days, plus 10 company holidays annually.

Health & Wellness: Comprehensive healthcare, dental, and vision plans for you and your family.

Exclusive Perks: Discounts on attractions, theme parks, shows, sports events, movies, hotels, and more through TicketsAtWork.

Beauty Perks: $30/month reimbursement for any Vagaro service, including health, beauty, or wellness treatments.

Food Perks: $50 monthly stipend for our onsite microkitchen and a complimentary DoorDash DashPass subscription.

Growth Opportunities: College Assistance Reimbursement, access to EAP & Work/Life Programs, and a LinkedIn Learning account.

Financial Security: 401k program with 4% matching and optional life/supplemental insurance.

Stay Active: Access to our on-site gym, flavored water dispenser, and basketball court to keep you fit and energized!

Vagaro is proud to be an Equal Employment Opportunity and affirmative action employer.
