ROLE
We’re looking for an experienced Product Manager, International Growth to lead the strategy and execution of the experiences that power Whatnot’s non-US markets. You will own the international growth roadmap across acquisition, activation, engagement, and retention—building a world-class, standardized buyer and seller experience across geos and scaling a repeatable playbook beyond our lead markets. In this role, you will partner closely with teams across the company to unlock the next wave of growth in our international markets. Your work will help grow international into a multi-billion dollar, double-digit share of company GMV over the coming years. You will report to a Senior Director of Product. We’re remote-first, but this role requires being within commuting distance of one of our office hubs in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, New York City, or London.
YOU WILL
- Own the international growth vision and roadmap, defining how we standardize a high-quality product experience across markets while respecting local nuances and regulations.
- Drive systemic unlocks first, then paper cuts: each term, identify a small number of high-leverage opportunities that materially unlock growth or reduce chronic friction across multiple markets, while continuously burning down the backlog of country-critical bugs and UX/localization gaps.
- Champion a “hub-and-spoke” model for international, working with core product teams who own long-term platforms while ensuring international needs are prioritized, unblocked, and shipped on scalable foundations—never as one-off forks.
- Own international growth metrics and country scorecards, including acquisition, activation, retention, monetization, and market health. Use these to guide prioritization and to hold DRIs accountable for outcomes at the country and regional level.
- Design and run experiments across the funnel, partnering with Data Science and UXR to understand user behavior, size opportunities, and validate the impact of new product bets in specific markets.
- Translate regional expertise into scalable products, working closely with regional CatEx/Sales, Ops, and Marketing to understand local behaviors and convert them into productized playbooks that can be rolled out across multiple countries.
- Ensure our product is “global-ready by default”, partnering with Engineering and Design to bake i18n best practices, localization requirements, and regulatory constraints into new features from the start.
YOU
People who do well at Whatnot tend to be comfortable figuring things out as they go, biased toward action, and genuinely curious about what they're building. They care more about outcomes than credit and stay close to the product and the people using it.
- 6+ years of product management experience, including substantial time as a Growth PM or similar role (e.g., owning acquisition, activation, engagement, or monetization in a consumer or marketplace product).
- Proven track record driving measurable growth in a high-velocity consumer product or marketplace—owning end-to-end funnels, setting targets, and using experimentation to move core KPIs.
- Experience scaling international (non-US) markets, such as:
+ launching or growing products in multiple countries,
+ adapting product experiences to local behaviors, regulations, or infrastructure, and
+ partnering with regional teams to build repeatable playbooks.
- Strong data and experimentation skills: comfortable defining metrics, digging into country-level analytics and scorecards, designing experiments, and using both quantitative and qualitative insights to inform decisions.
- Demonstrated ability to work in ambiguous, fast-paced environments, making sound decisions with imperfect information, and balancing speed, risk, and quality on complex multi-team initiatives.
- Excellent cross-functional leadership and communication, with experience partnering closely with Engineering, Design, Data Science, UXR, BizOps, CX/Trust, Logistics, Payments/Tax, and regional go-to-market teams.
- High empathy for international users and stakeholders, with a strong desire to build trustworthy, transparent, and locally resonant experiences for buyers and sellers.
- Experience working as a PM in a marketplace or multi-sided platform is preferred but not required.
BENEFITS
- Generous Holiday and Time off Policy
- Health Insurance options including Medical, Dental, Vision
- Work From Home Support + Home office setup allowance + Monthly allowance for cell phone and internet
- Care benefits + Monthly allowance for wellness + Annual allowance towards Childcare + Lifetime benefit for family planning, such as adoption or fertility expenses
- Retirement; 401k offering for Traditional and Roth accounts in the US (employer match up to 4% of base salary) and Pension plans internationally
- Monthly allowance to dogfood the app + All Whatnauts are expected to develop a deep understanding of our product. We're passionate about building the best user experience, and all employees are expected to use Whatnot as both a buyer and a seller as part of their job (our dogfooding budget makes this fun and easy!).
- Parental Leave + 16 weeks of paid parental leave + one month gradual return to work *company leave allowances run concurrently with country leave requirements which take precedence.
EOE

We value diversity, and we do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, parental status, disability status, or any other status protected by local law.

Get Access To All JobsGrowth Product Manager CPT: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Growth Product Manager role qualify for CPT authorization?
Yes, if your degree program includes coursework in product management, growth analytics, digital marketing strategy, or user acquisition. Your DSO evaluates whether the specific job duties map to your enrolled curriculum. Roles centered on growth experimentation, funnel optimization, or retention analysis typically satisfy the integral curricular requirement for business, information systems, and data science programs.
Can I do CPT part-time as a Growth Product Manager while taking classes?
Yes. CPT authorized at fewer than 20 hours per week is part-time and doesn't affect your OPT eligibility regardless of duration. Full-time CPT of 20 hours or more per week for 12 or more cumulative months eliminates your OPT eligibility entirely, so track your hours carefully if you're doing multiple CPT authorizations across semesters.
How do I find Growth Product Manager roles where employers understand CPT?
Search for Growth Product Manager positions on Migrate Mate, which shows employers with verified work-authorization filing history. Prioritize companies that have sponsored F-1 employees before, since their HR teams already understand I-20 documentation, offer letter requirements, and the DSO authorization timeline you need before your start date.
What job duties does O*NET classify under a Growth Product Manager profile?
O*NET doesn't have a dedicated Growth Product Manager occupation code, but the role typically maps to the Product Management Managers category, which covers defining product roadmaps, analyzing user data, and coordinating cross-functional growth initiatives. Your DSO may ask you to reference this classification when documenting how the role connects to your program of study.
Does working full-time CPT as a Growth Product Manager hurt my H-1B prospects?
Full-time CPT itself doesn't affect H-1B visa eligibility, but it eliminates OPT, which is the work authorization most F-1 graduates rely on while an employer files an H-1B petition. Without OPT, you'd need your employer to file an H-1B cap-subject petition before graduation or pursue a cap-exempt employer, so factor that into your post-graduation planning before accepting full-time CPT.
