Summary:

We are seeking a Senior Product Manager, Selection & Merchandising to own the systems and operational tools that support category expansion, merchandise operations, and GMV growth across all category verticals. This role will be responsible for defining and delivering the product strategy and roadmap that enable our merchandising and category teams to scale effectively and make smarter, data-driven decisions.

The ideal candidate combines strong product management fundamentals with deep business acumen in merchandising, category management, assortment, pricing, and e-commerce operations. You are comfortable working cross-functionally, influencing stakeholders, and building systems from concept through launch and optimization.

Important: This is a Product Management role, not a Buyer, Purchasing, Category Manager, or Merchandise Planner position. The primary responsibility is to build and optimize internal systems, tools, workflows, and product capabilities that enable merchandising and category teams to operate more effectively. While understanding merchandising, assortment, pricing, and category management is important, this role focuses on product strategy, system design, roadmap execution, and cross-functional delivery rather than direct vendor negotiations, purchasing, or inventory buying activities.

• Own the product vision, strategy, roadmap, and execution for systems and tools supporting category growth, merchandising operations, and GMV expansion across all category verticals.
  
• Work backward from category growth strategy and business goals to define product priorities and measurable outcomes.
  
• Drive improvements in:
  
  • Category coverage and selection depth
    
  • New SKU onboarding and performance
    
  • Conversion and customer engagement
    
  • Pricing competitiveness and margin optimization
    
  • SKU profitability and overall category profitability
    
• Partner closely with Category Growth, Merchandising, Marketing, Finance, Engineering, Analytics, UX Design, and Supply Chain teams to identify business needs and translate them into scalable product solutions.
  
• Lead the design and development of end-to-end capabilities and internal tools across:
  
  • Category planning and performance analytics
    
  • Selection and assortment optimization
    
  • Pricing strategy and automated pricing tools
    
  • Campaign planning and management
    
  • Product lifecycle management
    
  • Merchandising and category performance dashboards
    
  • Content quality management and enrichment
    
  • Workflow and process automation
    
• Gather and prioritize requirements, define user stories and success metrics, and manage the product backlog.
  
• Create business cases, evaluate tradeoffs, and align stakeholders around product priorities and roadmap decisions.
  
• Work closely with Engineering and Design teams throughout the full product lifecycle, from ideation and requirements to launch, adoption, and continuous improvement.
  
• Establish clear KPIs and reporting mechanisms to measure product impact and ensure visibility into performance and execution.
  
• Drive operational excellence through strong project management, ownership, communication, and follow-through.
  

Basic Qualifications

• 5+ years of product management experience delivering scaled systems and tooling in e-commerce, retail, marketplace, or merchandising environments.
  
• Deep understanding of category and merchandising management concepts, including assortment planning, product lifecycle management, pricing strategies, promotional mechanics, and conversion optimization.
  
• Knowledge of key category and merchandising metrics, including GMV, sell-through rate, category contribution margin, average order value, conversion rate, and pricing index.
  
• Strong analytical and structured problem solving: root-cause analysis, clear problem framing, success metrics definition, and translation of insights into system capabilities and operational mechanisms.
  
• Experience influencing multiple stakeholders and driving alignment and decisions
  
• Leadership experience in distributed or remote engineering teams, driving execution across time zones and geographies.
  
• Bilingual written and verbal communication skills in Chinese and English.
  
• Ability to utilize AI to increase job productivity and efficiency
  

Preferred Qualifications

• Hands-on experience building or scaling catalog management, merchandising, or pricing systems.

• Experience with automated pricing engines, dynamic pricing algorithms, or competitive pricing tools.

• Demonstrated ability to navigate ambiguity effectively and identify structural improvements.

• Strong engineering and design judgment: able to partner with Engineering to make sound technical trade-offs and collaborate with UX Design to deliver high-quality user experiences.

• Track record of building automated and self-service solutions that reduce manual work and improve operational efficiency.

• Strong data fluency with SQL and common analytics/BI tools.

• People management experience.
