Railroad Project Manager Jobs in Rhode Island (NOW HIRING)

Providence / New York / Remote - Mid-level and above

At Splitwise, the Growth team is responsible for improving the metrics of both our free product (Splitwise "Core") and our paid subscription (Splitwise Pro). We balance the growth of Core MAUs (Monthly Active Users) against the optimization of Pro subscription revenue, driving Splitwise forward on the journey to 100 million+ users. Through rigorous impact-sizing, frequent experimentation, rapid iteration, and detailed data analysis, we help Splitwise thrive.

We believe that small groups of dedicated people can build great software AND maintain an excellent work-life balance at the same time. ("It's a marathon, not a sprint," we often say.) We have a small hybrid HQ in Providence, RI, but most of us work remotely, with 2-3 large off‑site gatherings each year. We reward high levels of ownership, and believe that psychological safety enables people to work through challenges and do their best work. All of us here are invested in making both Splitwise-the-app and Splitwise-the-company the best that they can be.

The Growth team is cross‑functional, consisting of 3 server engineers, an engineering manager, a PM, a designer, and a data analyst. We collaborate closely with our Mobile team to ship key updates, and with our Core Platform and Payments teams on projects that span multiple areas of our app. We're excited to add someone new to our small, effective team – and we hope that person is you!
