Pickle is a rental marketplace. We seek to make fashion more affordable, sustainable, and accessible by enabling people to rent clothes directly from one another right in their city. Our unique peer-to-peer model allows Pickle to have the coolest and freshest fashion out there. And our same-day local courier delivery not only allows our users to find a last minute outfit when they’re “in a Pickle”, but also helps people get access to items at ~80% off the original retail!

Position Summary

We're seeking a highly analytical, high-ownership, and results-driven Growth Product Manager to optimize Pickle’s conversion funnel and enhance our marketplace performance. This role will be pivotal in optimizing the funnel, identifying growth opportunities, and collaborating closely with Engineering, Growth, and Operations to drive measurable outcomes.

• Conversion Optimization: Analyze and optimize the user journey to drive higher conversion rates across the funnel (eg. Download > Signup > Rent).

Ideal Candidate

• Highly resourceful with extreme ownership mindset: “If I don’t do it, no one will”.
