Skylight is a fast-growing technology company based in Los Angeles and San Francisco, building the operating system for families. Our products bring together calendars, lists, routines, and memories—helping millions of families stay organized and connected around the world.

Entirely bootstrapped, Skylight has scaled to hundreds of millions in annual revenue under founders who are former venture capitalists and serial entrepreneurs. And we’re just getting started: you will be stepping in to help us build the Family OS into a generational company that serves every member of the family.

Our ideal candidate is an entrepreneur at heart and has deep experience talking to customers and building lovable products. This candidate is comfortable wearing many hats and has an innate curiosity that drives the direction of their work.

You will report to our Chief Product Officer, working closely with the engineering, customer service, and marketing teams to transform Calendar into the operating system of the family, eventually used by millions of families daily.

Responsibilities

The Family OS has many possible paths forward and your first job will be to define and validate the next major step forward. Within your first few months, you’ll shape a roadmap, prototype and validate your ideas with customers and work with design and engineers to bring them to life.

In addition you will:

• Set the product vision: develop a deep understanding of the competition, the customer, and the ways Skylight can help families. Use that and your creativity to propose and validate new products.
• Own the product roadmap: define the roadmap across and build features that both benefit customers and impact KPIs. You will ruthlessly prioritize features with a nose for value and scope a minimum lovable product to deliver features on time.
• Collaborate cross-functionally: work across engineering, design, and marketing teams to take these features to market with smooth rollouts and high feature adoption.
• Set and assess progress rigorously: you will set KPIs, monitor performance, and analyze data to deeply understand our users and the impact your product initiatives have. Your insights will drive future developments and organize the team around your strategy.
