MEET YOUR FUTURE NEIGHBORS

Product Finance is committed to driving growth through new user acquisition and increasing engagement amongst our existing user base of neighbors. Today, we work closely with product and engineering teams to understand the impact and trends across growth and engagement while building and maintaining our quarterly and long-range forecasts. Historically, we’ve always been strong in our reporting and forecasting; however, over the past year we’ve been expanding our capabilities to dive deeper into our data to understand the “why” to subsequently get to “what” we should be doing about it.
We are looking for someone with a bias towards action. You will interrogate data, tease out the story and utilize insights to guide product strategy and our top-of-funnel forecasting. You will build and execute core operational processes, such as metrics reporting, user growth and engagement forecasting and tracking the impact of product initiatives collectively. In your role, the opportunity to work on special projects directly with product teams is also possible as you will work closely with senior product leaders and on a day-to-day basis. Successful candidates will exhibit technical acumen, product sense and business savvy. You are passionate about leveraging the power of data to drive product changes with quality and agility. You are a team player.
At Nextdoor, we offer a warm and inclusive work environment that embraces a hybrid employment experience, providing a flexible experience for our valued employees.
