Your Impact
At Handshake, we're redefining how Gen Z launches their careers — and the Feed is at the heart of that transformation. With over half of all U.S. college students on the platform, we’re uniquely positioned to become the professional social network for the next generation.
But right now, many students see Handshake as just a job board. We’re changing that — building a dynamic, community-driven experience where students discover career insights, build social capital, and get inspired by peers and professionals who look like them.
As the Senior Product Manager, Feed, you’ll lead the strategy to turn our Feed into a vibrant, personalized destination that helps students grow their careers every time they open the app. You’ll help students stay in the loop, feel seen, and take action — not just when they’re job searching, but every day in between.
This is a rare opportunity to own a high-visibility product surface with massive potential, and help millions of students discover what’s possible for their future.
Your Role
Shape the Vision. Define a bold and differentiated product strategy for the Feed that ladders up into our Content & Community vision and company goals.
Lead the Way. Inspire your cross-functional team and represent your product area to senior leadership. You'll translate high-level strategy into a focused roadmap that delivers results.
Drive Impact. Set clear, measurable goals — and ensure the team is relentlessly driving toward them.
Plan & Prioritize. Own the roadmap and collaborate across engineering, design, data, and marketing. You’ll also influence adjacent teams (e.g., Career Events, Employer Paid Products) to ensure alignment and amplify impact.
Champion the User. You’ll bring deep insight into the student experience — through user research, experimentation, and data — and use it to shape every product decision.
