Product Manager – Japan Market

Wix makes it possible for anyone to succeed online. Since 2006, we’ve grown to around 5,300 employees in 22 countries, launched over 40 products, and serve over 299 million users and their visitors worldwide. At Wix, we push you to innovate, evolve in non-traditional ways, and collaborate. We operate in small teams that work closely together at a high level.  

Although we’re already industry leaders in web creation and business, our work is nowhere near done. Our goal is to become the main engine of the Internet so we can create a more open web for all.  

We're proud to be an equal opportunity employer. Wix was built around the idea that everyone has the right to be successful, online. This same vision defines us as an employer: creating a work environment where everyone is welcome, and anyone has the right to succeed.
