Welcome to arenaflex – Pioneering the Future of Customer Experience
At arenaflex, we believe that every interaction with a customer is an opportunity to inspire trust, delight, and loyalty. As a global leader in e‑commerce and digital services, arenaflex serves millions of shoppers across continents, with a relentless focus on innovation, security, and privacy. Our Customer Service organization is expanding into the dynamic world of social media, where real‑time conversations shape brand perception. If you’re passionate about turning complex challenges into elegant, user‑centric products, you’ve come to the right place.
Why This Role Matters
Social media has become the frontline of modern customer support—think tweets, Instagram DMs, TikTok comments, and emerging platforms that appear overnight. Customers expect immediate, accurate help, and they demand it in the language and format of the platform they’re using. As the Senior Product Manager for our Customer Service – Social Media team, you will chart the product strategy that identifies, prioritizes, and resolves customer issues across a sprawling, ever‑evolving digital landscape. Your work will directly impact the safety, satisfaction, and loyalty of arenaflex’s global customer base.
Role Overview
This senior‑level position is based in Seattle, WA, and reports to the Director of Global Customer Service Products. You will own the end‑to‑end lifecycle of a suite of products that power social‑media‑based support, from intelligent detection and routing to multi‑channel resolution and post‑interaction analytics. You’ll collaborate with data scientists, engineers, design partners, legal, privacy, and senior leadership to deliver solutions that are secure, scalable, and delightfully simple.
Key Responsibilities
- Product Vision & Strategy: Define a 3‑year product roadmap that anticipates new social platforms, evolving privacy regulations, and emerging AI capabilities.
- Customer Problem Definition: Conduct deep research—voice‑of‑customer interviews, ethnographic studies, and data analysis—to pinpoint pain points and craft compelling user stories.
- Roadmap Ownership: Prioritize features, balance technical feasibility with business impact, and maintain a transparent, data‑driven backlog.
- Cross‑Functional Leadership: Influence engineering, data science, UX, legal, and operations teams through clear requirements, acceptance criteria, and success metrics.
- Stakeholder Communication: Prepare and deliver compelling presentations for senior leadership, quarterly business reviews, and external partner briefings.
- Risk Management: Identify potential failure modes (e.g., privacy breaches, SLA violations), develop mitigation plans, and champion a culture of proactive problem‑solving.
- Mentorship & Team Development: Recruit top talent, coach junior product managers, and foster a collaborative, high‑performance culture.
- Metrics & Continuous Improvement: Establish key performance indicators (KPIs) such as response time, resolution rate, sentiment score, and regulatory compliance, and iterate based on outcomes.
A Day in the Life
Imagine starting your morning reviewing the latest social listening dashboards that surface emerging trends—perhaps a sudden surge of inquiries about a new product on a niche platform. You convene a quick sync with data scientists to validate the signal, then meet with design to sketch a rapid‑prototype of a new routing workflow. By mid‑day, you’re presenting a feature proposal to senior leadership, illustrating how an AI‑driven intent classifier will reduce average handling time by 15 %. The afternoon is spent collaborating with engineering to break down the work into sprint stories, ensuring privacy safeguards are baked in from day one. Throughout, you champion the customer’s voice, ensuring every decision aligns with arenaflex’s commitment to safety, speed, and satisfaction.

- Background in scaling customer support solutions across multiple regions, languages, and regulatory regimes.
- Advanced degree (MBA, MS) or certifications in product management (e.g., AIPMM, Scrum Product Owner) is an advantage.
