About the Role
We are seeking an exceptional, AI-native Senior+ Product Manager to build and lead the intelligence and reconciliation backbone of HTS across Flights, Hotels, Cars, and Ancillaries. This role owns the systems that define pricing intelligence, supplier performance reporting, and financial truth across millions of travel transactions. You will design and scale model-driven infrastructure that continuously interprets transactional data, generates reference pricing, detects performance shifts, reconciles financial flows, and governs revenue integrity in real time. This is a foundational role at the intersection of marketplace economics, machine learning, and financial systems. You will partner deeply with Data Science and Engineering to productionize predictive models, define evaluation frameworks, manage model lifecycles, and ensure intelligence systems are measurable, adaptive, and trusted. The work you do will directly shape partner economics, supplier transparency, and HTS’s global commerce platform.
What would your day-to-day look like:
-
Own the end-to-end strategy and roadmap for pricing intelligence, supplier performance intelligence, and financial reconciliation across all travel verticals.
Architect and evolve reference pricing systems leveraging predictive modeling, elasticity signals, competitive benchmarking, and real-time anomaly detection. -
Build the supplier intelligence layer, transforming transactional data into automated performance signals, demand insights, and pricing diagnostics.
-
Establish and govern the canonical source of truth for revenue, margin, take rate, transactions, and cancellations across systems and partners.
Design model evaluation, monitoring, and feedback frameworks, including drift detection and continuous improvement mechanisms. -
Implement automated reconciliation and anomaly detection systems to proactively surface financial inconsistencies at scale.
-
Drive cross-functional execution across Engineering, Data Science, Finance, Commercial, and Supply to deliver production-grade, model-integrated infrastructure.
An ideal candidate has:
-
5+ years of Product Management experience, including ownership of AI-native products and model-driven systems in production. You have built and scaled systems where AI is foundational to product behavior — not an additive feature.
-
Hands-on experience writing prompts, designing evaluation harnesses, or prototyping with LLMs/foundation models as part of their PM workflow (not just overseeing others doing it).
-
Demonstrated experience operating as an AI-native PM, with hands-on ownership of model lifecycle management including problem framing, signal design, evaluation metrics (e.g., precision/recall tradeoffs, forecasting accuracy), monitoring frameworks, drift detection, and retraining strategies.
-
Experience shipping predictive systems, anomaly detection platforms, automated decisioning infrastructure, or model-driven pricing systems at scale.
-
Strong fluency with SQL and large-scale transactional datasets.
-
Experience owning pricing systems, financial reporting platforms, marketplace intelligence tools, or reconciliation frameworks.
-
Deep understanding of marketplace economics, revenue mechanics, and pricing strategy.
-
Track record of delivering complex, cross-functional systems with measurable business impact.
-
Exceptional communicator able to operate effectively across technical, financial, and commercial stakeholders.
Bonus:
-
Prior experience in Data Science, Engineering, or a highly technical role.
-
Background in travel commerce, fintech, ads, or other transaction-heavy marketplace environments.
Perks and benefits of working with us:
-
Well-funded and proven startup with large ambitions, competitive salary and the upsides of pre-IPO equity packages.
-
Unlimited PTO.
-
Carrot Cash travel stipend.
-
Access to co-working space on demand through FlexDesk AND Work-from-home stipend.
-
Please ask us about our very generous parental leave, much above industry standards!.
-
Entrepreneurial culture where pushing limits and taking risks is everyday business.
-
Open communication with management and company leadership.
-
Small, dynamic teams = massive impact.
-
100% employer paid Medical, Dental and Vision coverage for employees.
-
Access to Disability & Life insurance.

Health Reimbursement Account (HRA).
-
DCA/ FSA and access to 401k plan.

By leveraging massive amounts of data and advanced machine learning algorithms, Hopper combines its world-class travel agency offering with proprietary fintech products to bring transparency, flexibility and savings to travelers globally. We have developed several unique fintech solutions that address everything from pricing volatility to trip disruptions – helping people travel better and save more on their trips.
The Hopper platform serves hundreds of millions of travelers globally and continues to capture market share around the world. The Hopper app has been downloaded over 120 million times and has become largely popular among younger travelers – with 70% of its users being Gen Z and millennials.
While everyone knows us as the Gen Z and Millennial travel app, Hopper has evolved to become much more than that. In recent years, we’ve grown into a travel fintech provider, commerce platform, and global travel agency that powers some of the world’s largest brands.
Through HTS, our B2B division, the company supercharges its partners’ direct channels by integrating our fintech products on their sites or powering end-to-end travel portals. Today, our partners include leading travel brands like Capital One, Nubank, Air Canada, and many more.

-
Billions of dollars worth of travel and travel fintech are sold through Hopper and HTS’ channels every year.
-
Our fintech products – including Cancel for Any Reason and Flight Disruption Assistance – have exceptionally strong CSAT because the terms are always clear, and customers receive instant, no-questions-asked resolutions.
-
Almost 30% of our app customers purchase at least one fintech product when making a booking; and consumers are 1.6x more likely to repurchase if they add fintech to their booking vs if they booked just travel.
-
Given the success of its fintech products, Hopper launched a B2B initiative, HTS (Hopper Technology Solutions), which represents more than 75% of the business.
Through HTS, any travel provider (airlines, hotels, banks, travel agencies, etc.) can integrate and seamlessly distribute Hopper’s fintech or travel inventory on their direct channels. As its first HTS partnership, the company partnered with Capital One to co-develop Capital One Travel, a new travel portal designed specifically for cardholders. Other HTS partners include Air Canada, Uber, CommBank, Nubank, Flair Airlines and many more.
Hopper has been named the #1 most innovative company in travel by Fast Company. Hopper has been downloaded over 120 million times and continues to have millions of new installs each month. Hopper is now the #3 largest online travel agency in North America and 70% of our app customers are Gen-Z and millennials travelers.

HTS is primed to continue its growth as the leading travel ecommerce provider in a $1 trillion online shopping category. The Hopper app and website will also continue to be the preferred travel provider for Gen Z and Millennials.

Frame your M&A experience in travel-tech terms
Hopper evaluates Corporate Development candidates on deal experience relevant to marketplace and travel inventory businesses. Reframe past transactions around supply partnerships, platform integrations, or consumer fintech, not just generic deal flow.
Research Hopper's recent partnership announcements
Hopper has expanded through distribution partnerships and white-label products. Showing you've tracked their deal history, including hotel, car, and fintech tie-ups, signals strategic fit before you ever reach the sponsorship conversation.
Clarify your visa status early in recruiter screens
Hopper recruits across multiple jurisdictions, so recruiters may not immediately flag sponsorship eligibility. State your H-1B or immigration situation in the first screening call to avoid advancing far into a process that stalls on authorization.
Use Migrate Mate to filter Hopper's open roles by sponsorship
Hopper posts Corporate Development roles across multiple boards, but not all listings surface sponsorship intent clearly. Migrate Mate filters specifically for visa-sponsoring employers, so you can confirm Hopper's active openings before spending time on applications.
Understand what PERM means for long-term eligibility
For Corporate Development Managers pursuing permanent residence through EB-2 or EB-3, the employer-sponsored PERM labor certification process requires DOL approval before an immigrant petition can be filed. Starting this conversation during offer negotiation is far more effective than waiting.

Corporate development functions involving strategic analysis, partnerships, and M&A consistently meet the specialty occupation standard USCIS applies to H-1B petitions, which requires a direct relationship between a bachelor's degree in a specific field and the duties of the role. Hopper has an established pattern of sponsoring work visas for this function.
Which visa types are commonly used for Corporate Development Manager roles at Hopper?
The H-1B is the primary nonimmigrant visa used for Corporate Development Manager positions at Hopper. For candidates on a path to permanent residence, employer-sponsored Green Card routes through EB-2 or EB-3 classification are also available, both of which require PERM labor certification filed with the DOL before an immigrant petition can proceed.
What qualifications and experience does Hopper expect for Corporate Development Manager roles?
Hopper typically looks for candidates with a background in investment banking, private equity, management consulting, or corporate strategy, often with direct exposure to technology or marketplace businesses. A bachelor's degree in finance, business, or economics is standard, and direct deal execution experience, including due diligence and financial modeling, is expected at the manager level.
How do I apply for Corporate Development Manager jobs at Hopper?
You can find and apply for Corporate Development Manager roles at Hopper through Migrate Mate, which lists active openings filtered by visa sponsorship eligibility. When you apply, lead with deal experience that maps to Hopper's travel-tech and marketplace context. Disclose your visa status early in the process so recruiting and legal teams can align on sponsorship timelines without delays.
How do I plan my timeline when pursuing an H-1B through Hopper?
The H-1B cap lottery opens in March each year, with an employment start date of October 1 if selected. If you're currently on OPT or another status, work backward from that October date to determine when you need an offer in hand. USCIS also offers premium processing for faster adjudication, which Hopper may elect to use, though it is not guaranteed.
