Senior Product Manager, New Tax Products

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Symmetry is the payroll infrastructure for software & payroll platforms powering

the paychecks of over 64 million workers each year. Our fully integrated suite

of payroll tax APIs and software tools allows companies to solve tax compliance

issues and build applications across the entirety of the payroll process.

AI is a fundamental part of how work gets done at Symmetry. We expect all team

members to actively engage with AI tools relevant to their role and grow their

fluency as the technology evolves. AI experience requirements vary by role and

will be assessed during the interview process.

What Product Management is like at Symmetry

• Our Product team is lean, which means you’ll have a high degree of impact and

ownership. We believe in smaller, empowered teams that move quickly with less

overhead. You’ll pair sharp product judgment with fluency in AI tools —

automating what slows teams down and amplifying what makes them creative and

high-performing.

• We’re builders. Lines between roles are intentionally blurred, and our PMs do

whatever it takes to deliver outcomes. You’ll prototype, automate, design,

and ship — using AI as your co-builder to turn problems into durable

solutions that deliver customer value with urgency and care.

• We’re here to serve the payroll industry. Our technology impacts over 64

million paychecks in the US each year. We’re driven by deep customer empathy

and a relentless desire to innovate.

• We’re comfortable with change. Our environment moves fast, and PMs here

thrive in ambiguity — blending curiosity, experimentation, and AI-native

craft to shape how products (and work itself) are built at Symmetry.

• North Star: Focus the organization on what matters most. Identify the

highest-leverage investments and decisions across functions that will unlock

long-term success, reduce ambiguity, and ensure that Symmetry is building

toward a market-winning payroll tax offering.

Marketing, Sales, and Operations to uncover insights, validate assumptions,

and build alignment. You’ll help create shared context and ensure

cross-functional teams are set up to deliver.

• Accelerate Execution: Step into the highest-priority gaps that stand in the

way of success. Whether it’s clarifying requirements, kicking off strategic

initiatives, or embedding with a team to drive execution, you’ll help advance

the work by creating clarity, building momentum, and enabling others to

succeed.
