Description
At Pinterest, we're on a mission to bring everyone the inspiration to create a life they love. As the Group Product Manager for Connections, you'll lead the team responsible for how Pinners connect with people they know and with communities they trust, and how those relationships show up across the product , including discovery, collaboration, messaging, and notifications.
You'll own the end-to-end Connections strategy and roadmap, leading the core experiences and systems that help Pinners connect with people and communities they trust, and translating that into measurable product impact. You'll shape how social shows up on Pinterest by making connection experiences feel distinctly 'Pinterest': safe, personal, low-pressure, and grounded in shared interests rather than self-promotion.
You'll create cohesive cross-surface experiences by partnering with other Core product teams, so our connection features are consistent, useful, and help Pinners stay in the loop without feeling overwhelmed. You'll drive alignment across a broad product area by bringing together senior leaders and cross-functional partners (Engineering, Data Science, Design, Product Marketing, Policy, Research, and others) around a clear strategy, success measures, and execution plan for Connections, and by enabling teams to build on shared components and patterns.
You'll lead, develop, and inspire a team of Product Managers by managing and growing PMs working on everything from underlying systems to consumer-facing social features, setting clear priorities, providing coaching and feedback, and fostering a culture of product craft, experimentation, and accountability to impact. You'll champion safety, wellbeing, and trust by partnering with Policy, Trust & Safety, and Wellbeing to ensure connection experiences uphold Pinterest's values, and by supporting guardrails and controls that let Pinners connect on their own terms and manage how they're discovered, contacted, and notified.
You'll make Connections insight-driven by defining how you'll assess the health and impact of connection experiences with Data Science, and using quantitative and qualitative insights to guide prioritization, refine the roadmap, and communicate progress. You'll represent Connections across Pinterest by serving as a senior product leader and primary point of contact for the area, aligning the roadmap with company priorities, articulating the role of connections in Pinner value and business outcomes, and ensuring the work is understood and leveraged across adjacent teams.
