Senior Product Manager, Time

The Product Foundations & Time domain stewards the core experiences, infrastructure, and workforce tools that underpin how administrators and their employees navigate, track, and manage their work on Justworks. It owns the systems that enable accurate time tracking, PTO and time-off management, mobile access, reporting, navigation, and shared product surfaces, forming the reliable, high-performance foundation that supports every Justworks product and empowers businesses to stay compliant, productive, and connected. Within Product Foundations & Time, the Time mission team owns how Justworks customers manage workforce time: time off and time worked. Time Off covers leave policies, PTO balances, and the workflows admins and employees use to request and approve time away. Time Worked covers how hours are captured, reviewed, and passed to payroll across Justworks' customer base. As a Senior Product Manager on Time, you’ll play a high-impact role driving the roadmap for the Time mission team. You’ll focus on scoping and prioritizing new initiatives with research-backed case development. You’ll then work through the complete product development lifecycle to successful delivery. A meaningful part of this role is navigating the regulatory and operational complexity inherent to time and attendance, translating compliance requirements and payroll dependencies into product decisions that are simple for customers. As a champion for your team’s focus and productivity, you’ll remove obstacles and develop team camaraderie to ensure maximum, high-quality output that aligns with Justworks’ business objectives.
