About the role
- ABOUT THE JOB The ACLU seeks applicants for the full-time position of Product Manager II in the Technology Department of the ACLU's National office in New York, NY.
- This is a three-year term-limited position.
- The ACLU Technology Department is a broad umbrella covering both the ACLU's Analytics and its Product & Engineering teams, two robust and innovative divisions that power the work of the ACLU.
Responsibilities
- Reporting to the Head of Product, the Product Manager will lead discovery, early validation and evaluation efforts to identify, assess, and guide adoption of emerging and existing technologies needed for high-impact, mission-critical initiatives.
- This role is designed for an experienced product professional who thrives in ambiguous problem spaces, excels at facilitating alignment across non-technical stakeholders, and can translate complex organizational needs into clear, validated problem statements and opportunity briefs.
- Unlike traditional product management roles, this position does not lead software delivery with a dedicated engineering or design.
- The Product manager will assess needs, explore solution options, and inform what comes next - whether that is to define a vendor procurement process, scope an internal build, define success criteria, and support strategic decision-making on when not to pursue a technology solution.
- The role will also provide tight coordination and documentation support for the organization's Gen AI Governance Steering Committee and will be critical in ensuring traceability of decisions and communications emanating from the committee.
- Lead Deep Product Discovery for Priority Workstreams
- Partner with Tech Leadership and Directors across Privacy, InfoSec, Counsel, Legal Operations, Operations/HR, and high-touch Fundraising to explore complex problem spaces
- Lead a small number of deeper, longer discovery tracks rather than many lightweight efforts
- Design and lead collaborative workshops to align stakeholders on problem definitions, priorities, and options
- Build shared understanding across technical and non-technical teams
Benefits
- Team Planning and Learning
