Product Manager___Archive at Bitbean in Lakewood, NJ

BITBEAN IS LOOKING FOR A PRODUCT MANAGER WITH A VISION.

Yes, you have the education. Yes, you have the product management experience. Yes, you have it all on the resume. 

But while that may satisfy an employer seeking a Product Manager, deep down all that doesn’t satisfy you.

Because you know you’re better. You know that within you are capabilities waiting for the right
environment where they can see the light of day. Where your knowledge, imagination, creativity can push the envelope and create products that surprise your clients, even leave them a little bit in awe. 

And, because you are so passionate about your work, you’re a great inspiration for those on your team. It’s about you, it’s not about them. It’s about pulling together to pull the most out of your products. They are inspired by your vision, your dedication, your firm philosophy that good enough is never, and will never be good enough.

If you believe in yourself and are just waiting for the opportunity to let loose, we have that opportunity.

We share your vision to the core. We’ve pushed the envelope and produced exceptional products. Our vision as a company takes it one step further. We believe software is only the tool. Helping grow our client’s business is the quest. That means we see products from an entirely different perspective. And, that has proven to make all the difference.

We can offer you great working, environment, 18000 sq. ft., with lunch, free Starbuck’s (and more), lounge to relax, chat, have a coffee, whiteboards to layout your thinking, brainstorming rooms to discuss, explore, even battle. And, may we add, an outdoor deck and country-like views.

But that’s just the physical. Far more important is the quality of the team you’ll be leading. Bright, sharp-thinkers. They’ll pick up on your ideas and help take it even further. They’re just great people all around, people fun to be with even during a grueling planning session.

The only warning we must give you, is you will probably find it hard to leave at the end of the day.
