Product Manager (API Platform)

Role Overview

Join Filevine as a Product Manager II for the API Platform team. You’ll help drive execution across a portfolio including LOIS Workflows, DataBridge, and Platform MCP, moving from day-one impact toward full product ownership as the portfolio matures.

Key Missions & Responsibilities

• Own day-to-day backlog management and sprint coordination for assigned workstreams, ensuring Engineering has a clear, prioritized, well-scoped queue.
• Synthesize feedback from beta customers, partners, and internal teams into actionable, well-scoped issues connecting user pain to product change.
• Lead cross-functional ceremonies (standups, refinements, implementation syncs) with Engineering, Design, Support, and Go-to-Market, ensuring clear outcomes and owners.
• Support beta programs by translating learnings into product improvements.

Requirements

• Ability to independently own workstreams end-to-end (run meetings, synthesize stakeholder input, drive decisions) while aligning to an established product vision and architectural direction.
• Agile/Scrum experience, including managing a product backlog.
• Strong written communication: draft specs, status updates, and customer-facing release notes with minimal editing.
• Analytical, data-informed prioritization using evidence such as customer feedback, usage data, and support trends.
• Comfortable with ambiguity and shifting priorities while staying focused on business outcomes.
• Ability to run meetings, synthesize competing inputs, and drive to decisions.
• Comfortable with technical concepts such as APIs, OAuth, webhooks, and data pipelines (read and understand engineering tickets; no coding required).
• Hands-on AI tool usage (e.g., Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT) to build prototypes, automate processes, or develop workflows (not required to be an engineer).
• 2–5 years of product management or closely adjacent experience (technical PM, solutions engineering, product ops, technical program management) in SaaS.

Nice-to-haves

• Experience in Legal Tech, law firm operations, or other regulated industries involving compliance and data governance.
• Familiarity with workflow automation platforms and/or integration tooling.
• Experience shipping for developer/integrator users.
• Experience with beta programs, customer advisory boards, or partner onboarding.

Education

• B.S. or M.S. in business, engineering, computer science, information systems, or related field, or equivalent direct work experience.
