Product Experience - Associate Product Manager

Mill is all about answering a simple question: how can we prevent waste? Less waste can save time, money, energy, maybe even our planet. And there’s no better place to start than food. Food waste is one of the most solvable climate problems facing us today. Plus, our trash really stinks. It’s gross, heavy, and our least favorite chore. At Mill we are striving to build a better environment for all, as we take on climate and kitchen change.

About the RoleWe’re looking for a Product Manager to join the Product Experience team. You’ll shape extensions of the Mill ecosystem, focusing on accessories and supporting experiences that make Mill even more delightful and sustainable. This role is ideal for someone early in their product career who wants to grow quickly by taking ownership of projects, learning from experienced teammates, and delivering meaningful outcomes for our customers.

You’ll collaborate closely with design, engineering, operations, and customer experience teams, contributing to the full lifecycle of product development while developing your own product management expertise.

• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with the ability to synthesize insights from customers, data, and the business.

• Comfort collaborating across disciplines and working with general direction from a manager or lead.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

• Curiosity, humility, and drive to learn and grow in a fast-paced environment.
