About Splash
Splash Sports is the leading sports gaming platform for peer-to-peer contests. We’re a venture-backed startup (investors include Elysian Park Ventures, Acies Investments, and NFL, NHL, MLB, Premier League owners) focusing on the long tail of sports contests.
Our mission is simple but ambitious: bring people closer together through the gamification of live sports. We do it by empowering commissioners, creators, and brands to spin up contests in minutes, automate prize pools, and earn a cut of the action—no sportsbook required.
What Makes Us Special
Under the hood, we’re a lean, product-obsessed team that ships fast, sweats compliance, and celebrates wins. On the front lines, our sales crew onboards our VIP commissioners, converts creators into revenue partners, and turns casual fans into lifelong players.
The Role
We are looking for a senior Growth Product Manager to lead the strategy and execution of our most important growth levers including engagement, retention, monetization and acquisition. You will own our growth experimentation roadmap and partner closely with marketing, design, and engineering to build an exceptional, gamified user experience that drives loyal, recurring behavior and customer acquisition.
Our ideal candidate is outcomes-oriented, rigorous about defining and measuring metrics for success, and enjoys shipping and learning at high velocity.
This is a remote role for candidates within the U.S.
You Must
- Partner with design and engineering to lead the cross-functional growth team focused on acquiring, engaging and retaining users across our product suite.
- Own the growth strategy and roadmap to deepen engagement and retention, improve monetization and acquire new customers
- Drive a culture of experimentation through generation of hypotheses, prioritization of experiments and excellent communication of results and learnings across the organization.
- Deeply understand our customers through observation, data analysis and qualitative research and leverage that knowledge to drive continuous, measurable improvement
- Own the performance of our key growth loops and expand into new ones
- Thrive in a fast-paced startup environment and are comfortable with a non-traditional schedule that flexes with the demands of the sports calendar, including evenings and weekends
- Embrace AI-powered tools to improve efficiency, automate workflows and improve decision making
You Have
- 5+ years of product management experience building and optimizing growth levers for high-quality consumer products
- Experience with rapid A/B testing in a high-performing growth product function
- Proven ability to balance qualitative and quantitative analysis; you’re able to deconstruct a funnel or build a new growth loop
- Gamification and engagement experience with a strong understanding of engagement loops, sharing and virality, and gamification mechanics like leaderboards, streaks, rewards and contests.
- Ability to identify high-leverage opportunities for experimentation and prioritize your initiatives based on user value and business impact
- Great collaboration skills and proven experience partnering with design, engineering, marketing and founding teams
- An ownership mindset: you’re scrappy, curious and comfortable with ambiguity. You thrive in fast-paced startup environments.
- A degree in a relevant field such as business, computer science or statistics
- Bonus points if you have:
- Experience within fast-growing, consumer-facing applications that leverage transactions or subscriptions
- Deep knowledge of SQL and the latest product analytics tooling
- Entrepreneurial experience
- Knowledge of marketing channels including SEO
- Familiarity with marketing technology and tracking tools
