SeatGeek PMs have a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of technology and live entertainment. Unlike generalist PM roles, you'll be deeply immersed in solving ticketing-specific challenges, requiring a blend of data analysis, user experience design, and industry knowledge.
-
While you don't need to code, a strong technical foundation is crucial. You should be comfortable with SQL for data analysis, understand the basics of web and mobile technologies, and be able to communicate effectively with engineers about technical trade-offs.
-
SeatGeek values work-life balance, but the nature of the live events industry means occasional evening or weekend work may be required, especially during major product launches or high-profile events. However, this is balanced with flexible work arrangements and generous time-off policies.
-
We have a robust A/B testing culture. PMs are expected to design and analyze experiments regularly, using data to drive decision-making. You'll work closely with data scientists to ensure statistically significant results and derive actionable insights.
-
SeatGeek offers various growth paths for PMs. You can progress through the individual contributor track to senior and lead PM roles, or transition into people management as a Director of Product. There are also opportunities to rotate between different product areas to broaden your expertise within the ticketing ecosystem.
