About Watershed
Watershed is the enterprise sustainability platform. Companies like Airbnb, Carlyle Group, FedEx, Visa, and Dr. Martens use Watershed to manage climate and ESG data, produce audit-ready metrics for voluntary and regulatory reporting including CSRD, and drive real decarbonization. We are looking for team members who love product-building, want to work hard at a mission-oriented startup, and will collaborate with us in shaping the culture of a growing team.
We have offices in San Francisco, New York, London, Paris, Berlin, Sydney, Mexico City (launching soon!) and remote team members across the US and Europe. We hope that you'll be interested in joining us!
The role
Product Managers at Watershed are the glue that unites engineering, design, climate science, and go‑to‑market under a single cohesive vision—and then ship it. This is a highly technical, hands‑on, and cross‑functional role: you will set direction for the team responsible for Watershed’s calculation engine, and you’ll roll up your sleeves to drive execution.
You will partner with enterprise customers, our Climate Science and Solutions teams, Data Engineering, and Platform Engineering to decide what we build, why it matters, and how we deliver—with a relentless focus on customer impact, correctness, and scale.
You will
Become an expert on the customer: sit with sustainability leads, data teams, and auditors to uncover pain points, validate hypotheses, and turn insights into product requirements.
Own the roadmap: define the vision, strategy, and north‑star metrics for Watershed’s core calculation engine.
Ship platform capabilities that customers can use directly and other Watershed teams can leverage effectively.
Design for correctness & auditability: work with climate scientists and data engineers to ensure new capabilities are always accurate and transparent.
Partner across the org: align roadmaps with Sales, Customer Success, Sustainability Advisors, and more so that new platform capabilities land successfully.
You might be a fit if you
Have 5+ years of product management experience in B2B SaaS, with a track record of shipping data platforms, pipelines, or developer‑facing APIs—ideally at high‑growth startups.
Have built products for enterprise customers and can navigate security, compliance, and change‑management requirements with ease.
Combine customer anthropology with data‑driven intuition: you can spend a day carving through SQL or Python notebooks, then jump on a call to map it a CSO’s journey.
Thrive in ambiguity and love turning fuzzy, conflicting inputs into a clear, inspiring product vision.
Sweat the details: you hold a high bar for product quality, documentation, and developer experience.
Communicate with precision: whether writing a one‑pager, drafting API docs, or presenting a roadmap, you articulate complex ideas simply and convincingly.
Have dipped your toes into AI: whether it’s internal prototypes or fully-fledged features; AI is an enormous opportunity fo the calculation engine.
Location
This role is based in San Francisco. We believe colocated time accelerates collaboration for platform‑level challenges.
If you’re eager to build the engine that powers climate action at scale, we’d love to meet you!
Must be willing to work from an office 4 days per week (except for remote roles)
Watershed has hub offices in San Francisco, New York and London, and satellite offices in Sydney, Paris, Berlin, and Mexico City (opening summer 2025!). Where we have offices, employees are expected to be in office for 4 days per week. Certain jobs are open to being remote and will be specifically noted on the jobs page and in the job description if so.
What’s the interview process like?
It starts the same for every candidate: getting to know the team members through 1 to 2 conversations about Watershed, your experience, and your interests. Next steps can vary by role, but usual next steps are a skill or experience interview (e.g. a coding interview for an engineer, a portfolio review for a designer, deeper experience call for other roles) which leads to a virtual or in person interview panel. We prioritize transparency and lack of surprise throughout the process.
What if I need accommodations for my interview?
At Watershed, we are dedicated to ensuring an inclusive recruitment process. We provide reasonable accommodations for candidates with disabilities, long-term conditions, mental health needs, religious observances, neurodivergence, or pregnancy-related support requirements. If you need assistance during your process, please contact your recruiter.
