Senior Product Manager, Growth

Responsibilities

• Growth Strategy & Leadership
• Develop and execute a growth product strategy aligned with Novo's mission, growth objectives, and unit economics.
• Serve as a key strategic partner to the executive, product, and growth marketing teams, providing data-driven insight to guide major business decisions.
• Translate high-level company objectives into a prioritized growth roadmap, connecting fast-moving experimentation to the long-term strategic arc rather than chasing short-term, disconnected wins.
• Give Novo's products a clear point of view - defining who each product is for, what value it delivers, and why it resonates - so we serve the right customers rather than building for everyone and no one.
• Funnel & Experimentation
• Own the full growth funnel across acquisition, activation, conversion, monetization, and retention, with a clear view of how each stage drives unit economics (LTV, CAC, and payback).
• Design, run, and scale a rigorous A/B testing and experimentation program, including landing pages, messaging, onboarding, pricing, and personalization.
• Favor rigorous, cohort-based analysis over surface-level correlation when evaluating performance and informing investment decisions, while staying comfortable acting on directional data when speed and urgency demand it.
• Partner with Product, Engineering, Design, and Growth Marketing to productionalize winning experiments and turn learnings into durable, scalable product features.
• Acquisition, Conversion & Retention
• Improve conversion rate across the marketing site and onboarding by clarifying value props, reducing friction, and meeting the right message to the right customer at the right moment.
• Strengthen awareness and top-of-funnel performance in partnership with growth marketing, including SEO, AEO/LLM-driven discovery, organic channels (e.g., Reddit, social), affiliates, and educational content that compares Novo clearly against alternatives.
• Drive retention and stickiness by increasing the number of Novo products each customer uses, deepening engagement, and ensuring real value is transacted rather than relying on incentives or short-term lock-ins.
• Establish honest, market-comparable definitions of churn, retention, and cohort health, redefining metrics where current measurement flatters the numbers.
• AI-Powered Growth
• Use AI to multiply experimentation throughput - generating and testing variants of copy, landing pages, onboarding flows, and lifecycle messaging far faster than manual production allows.
• Lead Novo's approach to AI-driven discovery and AEO/LLM search, ensuring the brand and products surface accurately and favorably as customers increasingly research and compare options through AI assistants.
• Apply AI to analysis and personalization - accelerating cohort analysis, surfacing patterns in funnel data, and tailoring experiences to customer segments - while pressure-testing AI-generated conclusi
