Product Manager ( eCommerce Marketplace)

Product Manager – Marketplaces

Boston, MA (Hybrid) – ONSITE; 3 days / week

Long term Contract

About the Role

• Client is expanding its third-party marketplace presence and needs a product manager who understands the real work behind winning a buy box, protecting margin, and scaling listings across channels like Amazon, Walmart, and others. This role isn’t about theory. It’s about building a marketplace integration platform that automates listing creation, pricing updates, ASIN mapping, catalog normalization, and reconciliation workflows so Marketplace Ops and Pricing can move faster with fewer defects.
• You’ll own the roadmap for the Marketplace Platform and partner with engineering, marketplace operations, pricing, UPP, and revenue management to build capabilities that help us list accurately, price competitively, and maintain healthy margins across channels.

Core Responsibilities

• Own the product vision and roadmap for the Marketplace Listing & Pricing Platform—listing ingestion, ASIN mapping, pricing rules, buy-box strategies, and reconciliation capabilities.
• Define and prioritize capabilities that reduce manual ops: automated listing creation, channel-specific transformations, price publish flows, error handling, and health monitoring.
• Partner closely with Marketplace Ops and Pricing teams to translate operational pain points into actionable platform features.
• Drive margin optimization tooling (repricing configurations, pricing overrides, competitive intelligence signals).
• Collaborate with engineering to shape technical architecture and ensure scalable, API-first designs that integrate with UPP, Catalog, Pricing, and Inventory systems.
• Establish quality and performance metrics—listing accuracy, latency, exception rates, buy-box win trends, and margin impact.
• Lead cross-functional alignment with Merchandising, Supply Chain, Fulfillment, Finance, and external marketplace partners.
• Ensure compliance with channel requirements (Amazon, Walmart, eBay, etc.) and stay ahead of policy changes.
• Champion operational excellence by building workflows and UI capabilities for storefront configuration, rule management, and reconciliation.

Required Experience

• 5–8 years in product management, ideally in retail/e-commerce or marketplace integrations.
• Direct experience with Amazon/Walmart marketplace mechanics: listings, ASIN mapping, category rules, templates, attributes, variation families.
• Demonstrated work on dynamic pricing, repricers, margin optimization, or rules-driven pricing engines.
• Familiarity with inventory concepts (ATP, safety stock signals), fulfillment methods (1P, 3P, drop ship), and order lifecycle nuances for marketplace selling.
• Experience working with listing and pricing integration platforms (ChannelAdvisor/Rithum, CommerceHub, Mirakl Listings, etc.).
• Strong technical fluency — able to work comfortably with APIs, data models, mapping rules, and workflow engines.
• Proven ability to lead cross-functional work across engineering, operations, pricing, merchandising, and analytics teams.
• Strong analytical skills; able to tie product decisions to measurable business impact (margin, buy-box %, listing accuracy).
