Senior Product Manager, Scheduling

Job description

We’re looking for a Senior Product Manager, Scheduling to own a significant area of Procore Scheduling, our native scheduling solution built into the Procore platform. Construction schedules are built, shared, and used by many parties, and their tools are rarely connected. General contractors often keep a master schedule in Primavera P6 or Microsoft Project and plan short-term work in spreadsheets. Owners and specialty contractors receive those schedules but have their own scheduling needs. Procore Scheduling brings them together in one real-time, collaborative platform with a full CPM engine, lookahead planning, third-party imports, and deep connections to other Procore solutions. You’ll own the in-product schedule experience: how teams view, edit, and collaborate on schedules and lookaheads in Procore Scheduling. You’ll partner with your manager, who leads the broader Scheduling platform and its connections to other Procore solutions, including through AI. You’ll own the customer problems, priorities, and outcomes in your area, spend real time with customers, turn what you learn into clear requirements, and lead product in a tight partnership with Design and Engineering.
