Senior Product Manager Growth [f/m/x] (30-38.5/week) | SaaS | Remote within EU is possible
Who we are:
Today, our goal is to continue growing sustainably and join the top 1% of SaaS companies with over âŹ10 million in ARR. We want to create a meaningful impact for our customers, team, and company, becoming an integral part of our customersâ daily workflow. Guided by our core valuesâwe add value, we drive progress, we own it, we thrive together â we prioritize quality over quantity. We focus on exceptional talent and a collaborative, supportive culture, believing that revenue follows quality, not the other way around.
At Swat.io, we're a team of 50 people with diverse backgrounds. We focus on staying lean and agile, and weâre looking for makers who thrive in this kind of environment.
Who you are:
Youâve worked on growth topics in subscription-based products before, and know what it takes to move the needle across the full user journey, from acquisition to retention. You constantly monitor KPIs, spot trends, and connect product experience with business performance.
You define your own challenges, run smart, targeted experiments, and thrive when thereâs no roadmap, just potential. Whether itâs refining onboarding, improving pricing and packaging, or shaping in-product upgrade paths, you care about real, measurable impact.
You collaborate confidently across teams, communicate your reasoning clearly, and bring strong arguments to the table, while staying open to better ones.Â
Who you are not:
This isnât a role for someone early in their product career or looking to move into leadership soon. You wonât be managing a team, and we wonât be creating a title above âSenior Product Managerâ any time soon.
If youâre looking for a predefined roadmap, a long list of tasks, or direction handed down from others, this role wonât suit you. Youâll be expected to identify the biggest levers yourself and act on them.
Itâs also not the right fit if youâre mostly excited about building big new features. This role is about small, meaningful iterations, refining flows, pricing, packaging, and driving impact where it matters. Â
Weâre not looking for someone who waits for permission or needs others to spark the conversation. Youâll need to lead with insight, bring structure to ambiguity, and take full ownership of the outcomes.
Purpose of the role
Â
That will also include:
- Constantly monitoring key product KPIs, spotting patterns, and acting fast on what creates impact.
- Reworking and optimizing the Self-Service flows across the full user lifecycle, from signup to upgrade to churn prevention.
- Running small, fast, measurable experiments rather than chasing big feature builds.
- Creating upsell opportunities through pricing, packaging, and product experience.
- Working across a broad product scope, from publisher to inbox and beyond, while dealing with platform limitations and finding the right trade-offs.
- Pairing with designers early on to explore problems and define solid solutions.
- Collaborating closely with skilled and opinionated developers who value thoughtful input, to enable the development of value-adding features.
- Making sure Sales and Marketing have what they need to talk to customers and win them over.Â
- Take full ownership of product growth challenges, including planning, execution, and outcomes.
- Become the go-to expert on product-led growth within the team. As weâll keep building new features, your opinion and perspective on how it fits into the offering will matter.
- Make data-informed decisions:Â Rely on insights, not assumptions, your decisions start with data, and you know what to look for.
- Communicate clearly across teams, with strong reasoning and a bias for action.
- Deliver a measurable product improvement within your first three months.
Are you ready for this?
- You have at least 5+ years of experience as a Product Manager in the SaaS industry working with subscriptions, pricing, and packaging.
- You have a deep understanding of product growth in a product-led and self-service environment.
- Youâre obsessed with data, constantly monitoring KPIs, spotting trends, guiding decisions, and acting quickly to push key metrics upward.
- You understand the full user journey from acquisition to retention, and own improving it end-to-end.
- You thrive working autonomously without needing constant direction and are comfortable making decisions outside strict roadmaps, prioritizing what will make the difference based on business impact.
- You excel at small, iterative improvements rather than building âthe next big featureâ.
- You understand software development processes and how to work with engineers.
- You think in iterations, breaking big ideas into manageable steps, and are pragmatic about what to build and when, focused on purpose over perfection.
- You bring fresh, user-first ideas and stay curious about new tools, trends, and competitors.
- You have an opinion and arenât afraid to speak up, but you are also open to being challenged and to better arguments.
- You are experienced in working with different stakeholders and navigating shifting requirements.Â
- You understand modern product management practices and arenât afraid to dive into new technologies or unfamiliar problems (think: AI, Social Media platform shifts, unexpected API changes).Â
- You're fluent in English and confident in communicating your ideas, decisions, and reasoning across teams.
- German language skills
- Technical understanding/technical background
- Experience with social media platforms
- Certification as Agile Product Owner

Our stack/How we work:
- The product team plans everything in Linear, collaborates with designers in Figma, and works in 5-week development cycles, each starting with a kickoff to clarify resources, scope, and what we can realistically accomplish, whether for research or execution.
- We keep our processes agile with needed fixed points such as weekly team meetings, retrospectives, and ad hoc collaboration via Slack, Google Meet, or Slack Huddles. We are always open to jumping on calls, diving into problems together, and making sure humour is part of the process. Strong GIF game is recommended.
- We enhance productivity with advanced AI features of Raycast Pro, track user feedback in Productboard, and analyze product usage with PostHog to guide decisions and prioritiesÂ
- Bigger projects typically span 2â3 cycles, but we aim to ship a meaningful first iteration within one cycle.

Soll ich meine Bewerbung auf Englisch oder Deutsch verfassen?
Wir sind ein internationales Team und sprechen Englisch in unserem Unternehmen â einige Positionen erfordern jedoch verhandlungssichere Deutschkenntnisse (z. B. Positionen im Kundensupport, Marketing- und Vertriebsteam). Daher schick uns deine Bewerbung fĂŒr solche Stellen bitte in deutscher Sprache. Als Faustregel gilt: Verfasse deine Bewerbungsunterlagen in der Sprache der jeweiligen Stellenanzeige.
Wie geht es weiter, nachdem ich meine Bewerbung geschickt habe?
- Nach Erhalt deiner Bewerbungsunterlagen melden wir uns innerhalb einer Woche bei dir. Auch wenn die Jobbeschreibung auf Deutsch ist, sei bitte nicht ĂŒberrascht, wenn wir dich auf Englisch kontaktieren, da Englisch unsere Unternehmenssprache ist.
- Das BewerbungsgesprĂ€ch: WĂ€hrend eines 60-minĂŒtigen Videotelefonats triffst du deine:n zukĂŒnftige:n Team Manager:in und deine:n People Manager:in und wir lernen uns ein wenig besser kennen.
- AusfĂŒhrliches GesprĂ€ch / Probetag: Bei einigen Stellen bekommst du vorab Fragen und Aufgaben von uns, die du bitte fĂŒr das BewerbungsgesprĂ€ch vorbereitest. Du lernst mehrere Kolleginnen und Kollegen aus unserem Team kennen, arbeitest mit ihnen an Aufgaben, die Teil deiner potenziellen zukĂŒnftigen Position sind, und erhĂ€ltst tiefe Einblicke in unsere Arbeitsweise. Im Zuge dessen oder im Anschluss daran triffst du auch unseren CEO Johannes zu einem GesprĂ€ch.

Es ist uns aber sehr wichtig, unsere Stellen bestmöglich zu besetzen.
Gibt es Vor-Ort-Meetings oder VorstellungsgesprĂ€che im Swat.io-BĂŒro?
Die meisten unserer Team-Mitglieder arbeiten remote, einige kommen regelmĂ€Ăig ins BĂŒro. Manche Teams treffen sich fĂŒr AktivitĂ€ten wie Brainstorming-Sessions, Co-Working, um sich besser kennen zu lernen oder zu einem ungezwungenen After-Work.
Bewerber:innen bieten wir an, eine der Bewerbungsrunden im BĂŒro abzuhalten. Das kann etwa das Assessment sein, ein Treffen mit dem Team oder um Equipment abzuholen. Es gibt immer die Möglichkeit, einige deiner (kĂŒnftigen) Kolleg:innen persönlich zu treffen.
Ich wurde zu einem VorstellungsgesprÀch per Video eingeladen. Wie kann ich mich darauf vorbereiten?
Wir planen die meisten unserer Videoanrufe mit Google Meet, Zoom oder Around. Sorge dafĂŒr, dass du mit dem Tool vertraut bist, wenn du es noch nie benutzt hast. Achte darauf, dass die Internetverbindung zuverlĂ€ssig funktioniert, und ĂŒberprĂŒfe dein Mikrofon/die Lautsprecher.
Welche Sprache wird im Unternehmen gesprochen?
Mit Mitarbeiter:innen aus ĂŒber 12 LĂ€ndern sind wir sehr international. Aus diesem Grund ist unsere Unternehmenssprache Englisch und die gesamte interne Kommunikation lĂ€uft auf Englisch. Da jedoch der GroĂteil unserer Kunden deutschsprachig ist, arbeiten einige Teams in deutscher Sprache, zum Beispiel in den Abteilungen Finance & Operations, Marketing, Sales und im Support-Bereich. Ansonsten kommuniziert man auch dort auf Englisch.
