Product Manager – Employee & Employer Experience

About us

Sparrow is the first high-tech, high-touch employee leave management solution. Our mission is to make it simple for companies to provide their employees with all kinds of leave (i.e. family, medical, etc.).

Currently, the leave management process is painful and inefficient for everyone. Company leaders struggle to keep up with regulations and processes that change frequently, and the employees going on leave are overwhelmed by bureaucracy at an exceptionally important juncture in their career. Sparrow transforms this ordinarily tedious, error-prone, complex to remain compliant, and time-consuming process into a 30-minute end-to-end experience saving teams time (20 - 40 hours per leave) and money (up to $30K per leave).

Sparrow is headquartered in San Francisco with remote employees across the country. Sparrow is a diverse, highly talented, and supportive team. Together, we are hardworking, collaborative, smart, and humble—after all, we’re solving real problems.

About The Role

We’re hiring a product manager to own critical parts of our externally facing product surfaces. In this role, you’ll build experiences that help employees navigate their leaves of absence and help HR teams manage leave workflows with clarity and confidence. You’ll work closely with engineering, design, operations, and compliance teams to develop solutions that balance user experience with regulatory requirements.

• Own and deliver roadmap priorities for employer and employee-facing workflows

• Use research, data, and experimentation to shape product decisions

• Collaborate deeply with design and ops to ensure experiences are simple, accurate, and scalable

• Balance the needs of multiple user types: employees, HR admins, managers, and more

• Tackle ambiguous, complex problem areas and work across teams to find elegant solutions

• Shape a product that directly impacts people during some of the most important moments of their lives

• Join a mission-driven team at a key inflection point post-Series B

• Work in a culture that values craft, clarity, and care

About You

• 3–5 years of PM experience in B2B2C or operational SaaS

• Passionate about crafting intuitive workflows and reducing friction in regulated spaces

• Data-literate: you ask the right questions, run or spec analyses, and measure outcomes

• Comfortable driving initiatives with limited precedent or guidance

• Clear communicator and systems thinker

Compensation

• This is a full-time salaried, exempt position. Compensation ranges from $117,000-$145,000 and is based on your experience and legal state of residence.
