Senior Product Manager, Shopping Experience

Overview

Instacart’s Shopping Experience team is focused on making it effortless for people to discover, plan, and shop the food that fuels their lives. We’re building intuitive, trustworthy experiences that help customers find inspiration, make healthier choices, and get from idea to checkout with confidence.

We’re looking for a Senior Product Manager to lead our Health product area. In this role, you will shape the vision, strategy, and roadmap for how Instacart helps customers discover and shop food that honors dietary needs and helps them achieve their health goals.

You’ll partner closely with design, research, engineering, data science, and go-to-market teams to translate deep user empathy into delightful, impactful products. This is a highly visible, zero-to-one opportunity—ideal for someone who thrives in ambiguity, rolls up their sleeves to execute, and loves building startup-style products within the scale of Instacart.

You’ll join a focused pod within Shopping Experience with 6 engineers, 1 data scientist, 1 designer, and 1 user researcher, and collaborate across a broader group of product managers in the organization. The features you ship will be used by millions of customers every week, giving you the chance to drive meaningful outcomes at scale.

We’re a remote-friendly, fast-moving team that values clear communication, ownership, and collaborative problem solving to serve customers better every day.

About the Job

• Own the end-to-end product strategy and roadmap for Health within Shopping Experience, driving zero-to-one bets from discovery through scaled launch and iteration.


• Partner with design and research to deeply understand customer needs across inspiration, dietary filters, and health-forward discovery; translate insights into simple, elegant product experiences.


• Define success metrics and run a rigorous experimentation program (A/B tests, multivariate tests) to improve core outcomes such as engagement, conversion, and retention.


• Work cross-functionally with engineering, data science, operations, partnerships, legal, and privacy to deliver responsibly built features at scale, balancing speed with quality and compliance considerations.


• Build alignment across diverse stakeholders, communicate tradeoffs and decisions with clarity, and ruthlessly prioritize to maximize customer and business impact in a fast-paced environment.
