About Engine

At Engine, we're transforming business travel into something personalized, rewarding, and simple. For too long, managing travel and spend has been overwhelming and fragmented — we're here to change that. We believe the future of travel should be seamless and powered by technology that delights customers at every step. That's why we're building a platform that brings together corporate travel, a powerful charge card, and modern spend management in one place.

To make this vision real, we're looking for exceptional, mission-driven people to help redefine how businesses manage and experience travel.

More than 17,000 companies already rely on Engine to support over 1 million travelers and billions in annual bookings each year. Cash flow positive with rapid growth, we pair exclusive Engine-only rates, industry-leading rewards, and intelligent automation to help businesses save money while delivering world-class personalization and convenience.

Backed by Telescope Partners, Blackstone, and Permira, Engine has been recognized as one of the fastest-growing travel and fintech platforms in North America, with honors including the Deloitte Fast 500 and Built In's Best Places to Work.

Ideal candidates are based in San Francisco or New York, and are willing to work a hybrid 3 days a week schedule in office.

Engine is looking for a Staff/Principal Growth Product Manager to lead the charge on product-led growth across our travel management platform. This role is focused on accelerating acquisition, activation, retention, and monetization through smart experimentation, strategic product enhancements, and AI-native thinking.

You will be responsible for identifying and executing high-leverage growth initiatives that drive meaningful business outcomes. Your toolbox includes data, design, and a full-stack engineering team. Your mindset is deeply curious, execution-driven, and outcome-obsessed.

We're still early in our growth journey—this is your opportunity to build the growth engine from the ground up, with full support, real product traction, and massive upside.

You'll work at the intersection of Product, Data, Engineering, and Go-To-Market teams, helping us shape the future of how businesses experience travel.

What You'll Do

Lead the Growth Product Strategy

  • Define and drive the vision for Growth across the platform, aligning with company objectives and GTM strategies.
  • Identify and prioritize high-leverage growth opportunities across acquisition, onboarding, retention, and monetization.
  • Own and maintain a unified growth roadmap with clear metrics and milestones.

Build a Scalable Experimentation Engine

  • Establish systems and tooling for high-velocity experimentation and A/B testing across teams.
  • Foster a test-and-learn culture and build repeatable loops that feed into the broader product strategy.

Infuse AI into the Growth Stack

  • Partner with data, ML, and engineering teams to embed AI into user experiences—from intelligent onboarding to automated decision support.
  • Use predictive intelligence to anticipate user needs and improve time-to-value.

Lead Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Work closely with design, engineering, marketing, customer experience, and sales to bring initiatives to life.
  • Mentor and guide other PMs within the growth or related product teams.
  • Drive alignment across teams on vision, trade-offs, and success metrics.

Growth KPIs You'll Help Drive

  • Monthly active users (MAUs)
  • User activation rate
  • Time to value
  • Net dollar retention (NDR)
  • Expansion revenue
  • Product-qualified leads (PQLs)

What You'll Bring

  • 7 years of product management experience with a deep focus on Growth or PLG.
  • Proven track record of owning growth charters end-to-end and delivering business impact.
  • Comfort building cross-functional systems from zero and scaling them with a long-term lens.
  • Experience leveraging AI tools and automation to optimize workflows and personalize experiences.
  • A strategic thinker who's also execution-obsessed—you can zoom out and zoom in with equal comfort.
  • Natural leadership and mentoring instincts—you elevate the people and teams around you.

We accept applications for this role on an ongoing basis. We review applications as they are received and encourage interested candidates to apply early.
