Job Description

In order to serve the public conversation better, we seek to build ways for customers to have conversations the way they want to. While we are refining and perfecting Tweets, we're also building Spaces (voice conversations), recharging DMs (private conversations) and working on Communities (conversations with people who are into what you are into). But conversations are as old as humanity and we know there are potentially even more kinds of stages we can build.

The Director of Product for Connections leads an ambitious group focused on innovating on, building and refining these stages in development at Twitter. They will also incubate new ones we have conviction on. They will be responsible for managing the various product teams working on connections, establishing and refining strategy and making sure execution is confident and impactful for our customers. Many of these teams will be taking a product from 0 to 1 and defining new usage patterns for Twitter.

This role will call upon your management and execution chops. It also requires a lot of your innovative product sense. Your team will be brilliant and motivated but will need your encouragement and direction.

We're looking for ambitious and motivated product leaders who have a track record of shipping innovative products as well as scaling and leading great teams.
