About the Role:

The Communications Platform Product Manager will lead a high-performing team focused on developing and enhancing our customer communications. In this role, you will lead the strategy, roadmap, and execution of key initiatives that drive the effectiveness and scalability of our communication platform. This role reports into Gusto’s Application Platform group and plays a key role in driving customer awareness and actions to successfully run their business on Gusto.

About the Team:

In this role, you will collaborate closely with Engineering, Design, Marketing, and other cross-functional partners to deliver and scale innovative solutions that meet the evolving needs of our users and stakeholders. You will deliver direct-to-customer solutions, as well as internal-facing platform APIs that enable other product teams at Gusto to deliver the right message to the right person at the right time through the right channel, and do so at scale.

Here’s what you’ll do day-to-day:

  • Develop a deep understanding of effective communications to advance a platform that meets the needs of the multiple personas that Gusto serves.
  • Set goals and strategy for your domain, then translate it into a roadmap, milestones, and requirements based on business impact, customer needs, and technical feasibility.
  • Set, track, and improve key product and business metrics.
  • Conduct user research, gather feedback, and analyze data across domains to inform product decisions that impact the user experience across Gusto’s products.
  • Drive the product development process from concept to launch, ensuring timely delivery of high-quality products that delight customers and result in significant and measurable business impact.

Here’s what we're looking for:

  • 5+ years of product management experience driving platforms and systems, including experience leading communication platforms or products that involve messaging, notifications, or real-time communications.
  • Proven track record of successfully leading complex projects from concept to launch.
  • Expertise in identifying and understanding patterns across interconnected systems.
  • Strong data literacy and the ability to derive data-driven insights that guide strategic decision-making.
  • Strength in finding clarity in ambiguous situations to make informed and well-reasoned decisions.
  • Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to influence and inspire cross-functional teams.

Our cash compensation amount for this role is targeted at $153,000/yr to $191,000yr in Denver & most major metro locations, and $186,000/yr to $230,000/yr for San Francisco, New York, & Seattle. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors including candidate location, experience and expertise and may vary from the amounts listed above.


Gusto has physical office spaces in Denver, San Francisco, and New York City. Employees who are based in those locations will be expected to work from the office on designated days approximately 2-3 days per week (or more depending on role). The same office expectations apply to all Symmetry roles, Gusto's subsidiary, whose physical office is in Scottsdale.

Note: The San Francisco office expectations encompass both the San Francisco and San Jose metro areas. 

When approved to work from a location other than a Gusto office, a secure, reliable, and consistent internet connection is required.


Our customers come from all walks of life and so do we. We hire great people from a wide variety of backgrounds, not just because it's the right thing to do, but because it makes our company stronger. If you share our values and our enthusiasm for small businesses, you will find a home at Gusto.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
