Role Overview

HighLevel is accelerating its Email Marketing platform to become the AI-first communication engine for businesses worldwide. We are looking for a Staff Product Manager to transform Email Marketing from a traditional campaign builder into an intelligent, end-to-end campaign creation and automation ecosystem.

Today, HighLevel powers email creation, campaign scheduling, reporting, and lifecycle automation through Email Builder and Sequences. Your mandate is to redefine the customer experience through AI-native creation, intuitive editing interfaces, intelligent lifecycle automation, and actionable campaign intelligence — driving user adoption, activation, engagement, and revenue with a clear, metrics-driven product roadmap.

Key Responsibilities

1. Build World-Class Email Creation Experiences

• Own the end-to-end Email Builder user experience, including drag-and-drop editors, custom HTML tools, reusable visual components, responsive templates, and real-time collaborative editing.
• Build an industry-leading AI-native email editor that enables users to generate complete, high-converting email layouts using simple natural language prompts.
• Lead the evolution of a natural language prompt-to-layout generation ("vibe-code") builder, allowing non-technical marketers to create production-ready emails instantaneously.
• Deliver native multivariate experimentation tools, including subject line, body copy, layout, and Call-To-Action (CTA) A/B testing to continuously improve conversion rates.

2. Build Intelligent Campaign Delivery & Automation Workflows

• Own execution and scheduling features, including Send Now, Scheduled Send, Timezone-aware Sending, and AI-powered Send Time Optimization.
• Scale automated Sequences, trigger logic, dynamic branching, smart personalization fields, and event-driven marketing workflows.
• Streamline campaign creation workflows to minimize operational complexity for marketers while maximizing end-user engagement.

3. Drive Campaign Intelligence & Customer Insights

• Build reporting dashboards that accurately measure campaign execution, open/click engagement, conversion rates, attributed revenue, and overall ROI.
• Deliver actionable, AI-powered recommendations that guide users on how to improve campaign engagement and conversion performance.
• Establish robust product instrumentation, funnels, and experimentation frameworks to measure feature adoption and product-led outcomes.

4. Build Audience & Preference Management

• Own subscriber preferences, consent management workflows, and end-user preference centers.
• Deliver flexible preference experiences that increase customer trust and support global messaging compliance (CAN-SPAM, CASL, GDPR, etc.).

5. Drive Product Strategy & Execution

• Establish a 12–18 month product roadmap for Email Marketing aligned with HighLevel’s broader product strategy.
• Conduct continuous customer discovery, competitive analysis, and usability research.
