Staff Product Manager, Community Builders

Role Summary

Reddit is a community of communities, built around the conversations, interests, and experiences people share with one another. The Content Ecosystem organization works to grow the community-driven ecosystem that makes Reddit unique. Within it, the Community Builders team focuses on the products and systems that help communities form, grow, and thrive.

We are looking for a Staff Product Manager to help define the future of communities on Reddit. This is a rare opportunity to shape one of Reddit’s most important consumer experiences: how people find communities, understand where they belong, connect with others, and participate in ways that make those communities stronger. You will lead highly ambiguous, zero-to-one product work that cuts across discovery, contribution, community identity, recognition, and emerging community formats.

This is a high-stakes, high-visibility role for a PM with exceptional product judgment, strong user intuition, and sharp UX taste. You will partner closely with Design, Engineering, Data, Research, and cross-functional leaders to turn ambiguous user and ecosystem problems into compelling product direction, moving fluidly from strategy to product detail and from early exploration through launch, learning, and scale.

Responsibilities

• Identify major opportunities to evolve communities on Reddit, and turn them into a clear product strategy and roadmap.
• Lead zero-to-one community experiences from problem definition through launch, learning, and scale.
• Build a deep understanding of members, contributors, community builders, and healthy community dynamics, and translate those insights into high-quality product experiences.
• Assess ecosystem tradeoffs as you evolve the user experience, including impacts to community health, contribution quality, and member trust.
• Define goals, success metrics, milestones, and learning plans that connect user value with Reddit’s broader strategy.
• Partner closely with Engineering, Design, Data, Research, and cross-functional teams to make product tradeoffs and execute in a high-stakes, high-visibility space.
• Create clarity where there is little precedent, and communicate strategy, decisions, tradeoffs, and learning clearly to senior stakeholders

Must-Haves

• Staff-level consumer product experience owning meaningful product surfaces or systems with measurable user impact.
• Exceptional product sense, including strong user intuition, problem framing, prioritization, UX judgment, and product taste.
• Track record leading ambiguous zero-to-one or major product-evolution work from strategy through launch and learning.
• Experience shaping product bets across multiple surfaces, user journeys, teams, or parts of a broader consumer ecosystem.
• Strong analytical judgment, including defining success metrics, interpreting evidence, and changing direction when needed.
• Excellent cross-functional leadership with Design, Engineering, Data, Research, and partner teams; able to resolve dependencies and divergent goals with little direct manager involvement.

Nice-to-Haves

• Experience with community, social, creator, UGC, or marketplace products.
• Experience shaping user participation, identity, contribution, belonging, or reputation.
• Experience evolving mature product systems or designing for multi-sided ecosystems with distinct user needs and incentives.
