Product Manager (Senior) - Community

Why this role matters

Community is at the heart of running — it keeps people motivated, accountable, and coming back for more. At Runna, we’ve already built a coaching app loved by over 1 million runners worldwide. Now, we’re ready to take our in-app community to the next level — and we’re looking for a Senior Product Manager to lead the charge.

You’ll own the end-to-end community experience, working alongside our Principal PM and leading a cross-functional squad. Your job? Build a place where runners connect, inspire, and support each other — and in doing so, help Runna become the best running app in the world.

What you’ll do

• Own the vision for the in-app community — and turn it into reality. Shape the roadmap, drive execution, and balance experimentation with long-term bets.
• Build the loop. Grow participation, create stickiness, and strengthen the emotional connection runners have with Runna.
• Ship fast, learn faster. Work closely with engineers, designers, and content to deliver high-quality features that make a real difference.
• Make data your edge. Use engagement data, user insights, and experiments to identify the biggest opportunities and ruthlessly prioritise.
• Sweat the details. Obsess over user experience — from onboarding to everyday interactions — making sure every touchpoint feels intuitive and rewarding.
• Be the advocate. Champion the community internally and externally. Align stakeholders across Product, Marketing, and Customer Success around your vision.

About you

• You have 5+ years of experience shipping high-quality consumer products, ideally on mobile.
• You’ve built community, social, or engagement-driven features — or you’ve always wanted to.
• You’re comfortable moving fast — scoping lean experiments, iterating, and scaling.
• You balance big-picture thinking with attention to detail. You can take a community from 0 to 1 — and from 1 to 100.
• You love talking to users. Running 5+ user interviews a week sounds like a good time, not a chore.
• You live in the data. You’re comfortable designing experiments and interpreting engagement metrics.
• You have the leadership skills to drive cross-functional teams and the humility to collaborate openly.
• You care about the mission. You don’t have to be a runner (yet), but you care about building products that help people improve their lives.
