Swat.io is a Software-as-a-Service product that supports marketers in Social Media Publishing and Community Management. We are proud to be an independent, self-financed, product-led company, focused on building a product that users actually love. We follow a self-service-first approach and intentionally avoid aggressive sales tactics, putting user experience and value at the center of everything we do. Today, our goal is to continue growing sustainably and join the top 1% of SaaS companies with over €10 million in ARR. We want to create a meaningful impact for our customers, team, and company, becoming an integral part of our customers’ daily workflow. Guided by our core values—we add value, we drive progress, we own it, we thrive together — we prioritize quality over quantity. We focus on exceptional talent and a collaborative, supportive culture, believing that revenue follows quality, not the other way around. At Swat.io, we're a team of 50 people with diverse backgrounds. We focus on staying lean and agile, and we’re looking for makers who thrive in this kind of environment.You’ll join our Product Team, working alongside another Senior Product Manager and two experienced UX/UI designers, owning and driving our product growth. You’re a strategic thinker with a bias to action, fluent in numbers, and driven by measurable outcomes over shiny features. You’ve worked on growth topics in subscription-based products before, and know what it takes to move the needle across the full user journey, from acquisition to retention. You constantly monitor KPIs, spot trends, and connect product experience with business performance. You define your own challenges, run smart, targeted experiments, and thrive when there’s no roadmap, just potential. Whether it’s refining onboarding, improving pricing and packaging, or shaping in-product upgrade paths, you care about real, measurable impact. You collaborate confidently across teams, communicate your reasoning clearly, and bring strong arguments to the table, while staying open to better ones. Who you are not: This isn’t a role for someone early in their product career or looking to move into leadership soon. You won’t be managing a team, and we won’t be creating a title above “Senior Product Manager” any time soon. If you’re looking for a predefined roadmap, a long list of tasks, or direction handed down from others, this role won’t suit you. You’ll be expected to identify the biggest levers yourself and act on them. It’s also not the right fit if you’re mostly excited about building big new features. This role is about small, meaningful iterations, refining flows, pricing, packaging, and driving impact where it matters. We’re not looking for someone who waits for permission or needs others to spark the conversation. You’ll need to lead with insight, bring structure to ambiguity, and take full ownership of the outcomes.Your job is to identify and unlock our biggest growth opportunities in the Self-Service across conversion, activation, retention, and monetization. You’ll lead initiatives grounded in data and focus on outcomes. You won’t wait for permission or a roadmap; you’ll define the challenges worth solving and act on them.
