Product Manager - Appoint

Summary

QuinStreet powers performance marketplaces in digital media using segmentation and AI-driven matching technologies to connect consumers with brands. The Product Manager will own the Appointments product roadmap for homeowner and contractor audiences, lead product discovery and execution, drive experimentation and analytics, and coordinate cross-functional teams to improve adoption, conversion, and platform growth.

Responsibilities

• Build and own the Appointment product and solutions roadmap, translating company objectives into actionable, KPI-driven priorities that balance speed and quality
• Bring deep fluency in the appointment-booking space from both the homeowner and contractor sides, grounded in strong competitor and market research
• Define clear success metrics for the scheduler funnel and hold the team accountable to outcomes, not just output
• Lead new product and feature rollouts from discovery through implementation and scale
• Craft clear, comprehensive PRDs that communicate requirements, acceptance criteria, and technical needs in ways that enable swift and seamless engineering execution
• Partner closely with product, engineering, and design to ship high-quality improvements reliably and on time
• Drive adoption of appointment-booking products and features by identifying and removing friction in key customer workflows, and having direct conversations with clients about how the product is performing against their business goals
• Optimize existing products and features for better consumer usability, conversion rates, and client adoption
• Design and execute rigorous A/B tests and controlled experiments to validate product hypotheses
• Analyze results with precision, making sharp, data-informed decisions on what to scale, optimize, or cut
• Maintain an agile "ship-and-learn" mentality — moving with speed while holding a clear bar for product quality — with the ability to quickly redirect and pivot from underperforming experiments
• Leverage AI tools and platforms to automate workflows across the scheduler product and operations to drive efficiency and speed
• Prototype and test product concepts using AI tools (Claude, Cursor, etc.) to rapidly validate ideas and communicate vision to cross-functional teams
• Run and present product analytics reports that track and create visibility into core KPIs
• Use data to inform roadmap prioritization and identify optimization opportunities
• Command stakeholder conversations with sharp reporting of results and insights, paired with clear, actionable next steps that get teams moving fast on learnings
• Serve as the bridge across engineering, design, product, and marketing — rallying stakeholders around a clear plan, even when priorities compete, to drive real, meaningful change
• Communicate roadmap strategy and hard tradeoffs to executives and stakeholders with enough clarity and precision that people trust it and act on it
• Remove blockers and keep complex workflows, timelines, and dependencies organized with discipline, so teams stay aligned and moving forward

• • Excellent communicator who can align and activate cross-functional teams, as well as clearly articulate roadmap strategy, progress, and tradeoffs
• • Confident speaking directly with clients about product performance and its impact on their business
• • Experience in agile or fast-paced environments with the judgment to balance speed of execution against product quality
• • Hands-on proficiency with AI tools to both build AI-powered features into products and create automation workflows that accelerate day-to-day productivity
