We’re also committed to providing transformational opportunities for our own employees by investing in their growth. We aspire to create a culture that’s built on trust, care, inclusion, and fun – where everyone can succeed.

Join us to transform the way the world works.

This role will be based in San Francisco, Mountain View/Sunnyvale, New York, or Chicago.

At LinkedIn, we trust each other to do our best work where it works best for us and our teams. This role offers a hybrid work option, meaning you can both work from home and commute to a LinkedIn office, depending on what’s best for you and when it is important for your team to be together.

Looking for an opportunity to transform a business? LinkedIn is looking for a strategic, customer-focused leader to champion product quality in an extremely fast-paced, hyper growth environment. Your team will monitor product health and quality based on data gathered from multiple sources (including real-time product monitoring, member escalations, social media, and help center discussions), prioritize issues, and work directly with Engineering and Product Management to implement changes to deliver the best member and customer experience possible. Your team is the last stop before engineering, so the most complex issues not resolved through other support channels are escalated to your team to investigate, triage, and resolve.

In addition to providing operational support for member escalations, your team is chartered to champion product quality, and it is your role to drive strategic initiatives to improve product quality across your suite of products and the entire company. Your team plays an essential role in raising the bar of product quality by advocating the user's perspective, providing technical insights, and fostering collaboration.

This role requires a strong people leader, with a passion for developing and transforming your team. This team is geographically distributed and functionally embedded with the various product engineering teams, so it is essential that you are a manager and a leader that can build, develop, and lead teams that operate autonomously and effectively.
