Remote (United States)

Everyday Speech is a no-prep digital curriculum designed to accelerate the acquisition and generalization of social, behavioral, and communication skills for PK-12 learners of diverse ability levels. The MTSS-aligned curriculum combines evidence-based video modeling, interactive web games, and digital and printable worksheets to make it easy for special educators, speech-language pathologists, and other student support services specialists to support every student and every tier. Everyday Speech is trusted by 55,000 educators across 5,000 districts for one-on-one interventions, small groups, and whole-class lessons that engage students and help build resiliency.

Everyday Speech is right for you if:

You care about making a positive impact.

End each day knowing that your work had a direct impact on the well-being of hundreds of thousands of at-risk students across the world. Project success means more than just shipping features - it means improving the lives of students and educators.

You value being a part of a company that takes care of its team.

Not only do we have extremely happy team members, we also have incredible perks. Participate in our health/wellness and retirement benefit offerings, and between having every other Friday off (3-day weekends!) and our flexible PTO plan, that elusive work-life balance is an actual thing here.

You want to work for a true, remote-only company.

We’ve never had an office and never will. Our team is spread across 7 countries and 4 continents. We take remote work seriously and know how to support a distributed team. We give you the flexibility to work in a way that’s best for you, but still have high standards and accountability.

You want to join a startup that is growing rapidly *and* sustainably.

We have launched new products, maintained NPS scores of 70+, maintained eNPS (internal, employee score) of 80+, rapidly grown our team, and exponentially increased our user base, all over the last few years. Yet, as a fully bootstrapped company, our growth is organic and sustainable. Our focus is delivering value to students and educators, not paying back investors.

As a Senior Product Manager, you will be a key driver of Everyday Speech’s next stage of product growth and innovation as we expand into new areas. In this role, you’ll own high-impact strategic initiatives, turn customer insights into clear roadmaps, and lead cross-functional teams to deliver exceptional products for our K–12 educators and students. You’ll combine strategic thinking with hands-on execution, mentoring peers, and shaping a culture of collaboration, accountability, and continuous improvement.

The ideal candidate is extremely values aligned:

● We start with empathy— in the work we do and the people we do it with. Our strength comes from a culture that values candidness, trust, and valuing our teammates as whole human beings. We care, challenge, and communicate. We are serious about our responsibility to educators, who rely on us every day.

● We ruthlessly prioritize. We don ’t just say no to the obvious stuff, we say no to the things that feel important in the moment because we understand anything we say yes to is inherently saying no to something else.

● We create momentum. We don’t let the small stuff hold us back. We learn by shipping. We know most actions are reversible and that action always wins in the long run. If all else fails, bias towards action.

● We are fearlessly objective. We don't do things just because we're "supposed to." We constantly ask "why" and don’t let conventional norms define our efforts. We're not afraid to seek answers, even if that means discovering we were wrong. We focus on what delivers results, regardless of the source.

● We exercise agency. We have the ability to create systems that don’t yet exist to get what we need or to solve problems no one has identified. If something isn’t working, it’s within our control to fix it.

● We’re driven to grow. We set ambitious goals because we want to maximize our impact. We embrace challenges and take risks, seeing failures as opportunities to learn and improve. We seek out feedback and coaching and thrive in environments that push us.

Your work will have a significant impact on our product and the experience for every educator on the platform.

In this role, you will:

Drive strategy and execution by shaping multi-quarter product roadmaps, aligning with company goals and strategy, and turning insights into an ever more impactful product for our educators and students.
Lead cross-functional collaboration with engineering, design, and other teams to deliver high-quality, user-centered products.
Translate data into decisions by gathering user insights, analyzing product performance, and championing evidence-based experimentation to validate strategies and optimize for business outcomes.
Develop a deep empathy for our users, advocating for their needs to create impactful product experiences that reduce prep time and drive student outcomes
Build strong relationships with stakeholders and senior leadership, influencing company and product strategy through empathy, clear communication, and professional challenge.
Ensure operational excellence by maintaining systems for focus and task management, streamlining processes, and sustaining team momentum to consistently deliver value.
Promote a culture of regular feedback, peer mentorship, and iterative progress to ensure continuous improvement of our product and processes.

What We’re Looking For:

In addition to values alignment…

5 years of experience working as a product manager or similar in a cross-functional team building a software product.
Expertise using data and research to identify gaps, forecast business outcomes, and drive product decision-making.
Experience owning a strategic product outcome and building a roadmap that progressively builds to that outcome.
Expertise in establishing strong cross-functional collaboration and trust in a fully remote environment.
Expertise with agile product development methodologies.
Strong written, visual, and verbal communication and collaboration skills.
A track record of success building products, ideally in a K12 EdTech company.

In the short term (the first 3 months), you will:

Onboard and become familiar with our product and team practices.
Establish strong working relationships with teammates.
Develop ownership over your pod’s roadmap and product areas.
Begin sharing your knowledge and feedback with other product managers and contributing to team best practices.

In the long term, you will:

Lead a team to discover and deliver new strategy-aligned opportunities.
Influence and improve the overall product team culture and processes.
Continuously identify opportunities for product innovation and driving business outcomes.

We know great candidates come from a wide range of backgrounds. If you’re passionate about what we’re building at Everyday Speech, don’t hesitate to apply—even if you’re not sure you meet every qualification.

Salary: $130,900 USD annually, plus performance-based bonuses, paid out twice per year.
