That’s why, together with Oleksandra Khilienko , Head of Globalization at Headway Inc, we're looking for a Globalization Product Manager to make sure every product we ship feels like it was built for the market it lands in. The team you will be working with This is a role that touches almost everything we ship globally. You'll sit at the intersection of product management, user research, and linguistic strategy – and work across product, engineering, design, and marketing, alongside the native-language reviewers who keep our products feeling local. Globalization at Headway isn't a step bolted on at the end of the pipeline; it's built into how products are made from the ground up, and you'll own that end to end. Your decisions will directly shape the experience of millions of users across very different languages, cultures, and markets. This role is your calling if you Think in systems but act with precision – you can hold a messy, multi-team, multi-market picture in your head and still stay focused on what actually ships. Are genuinely curious about how people in different cultures think, click, and decide – and you read market and stakeholder nuance without falling back on assumptions. Are as comfortable in a data dashboard as you are in a conversation with a native-language reviewer about translation tone. Make sound calls with incomplete information, then iterate fast once you see results – ambiguity energizes you instead of stalling you. Get global requirements prioritized by teams you don't manage, through credibility and clarity rather than a title. Can rebuild a process that breaks, absorb hard feedback, and keep moving without drama. Believe great globalization is invisible – users in every market should feel the product was made for them. What you'll do Own the globalization roadmap end to end – and push globalization upstream, so it's built into how products are made, not bolted on at the end. Make our products feel native in every market we serve, including the genuinely complex ones. Turn global behavioral data and user research into real product and localization decisions – and own the analytics that show they landed. Set the bar for UX localization and linguistic quality across teams you don't manage – the standards, glossaries, and rubrics that hold up at scale. Build the systems behind it: AI-assisted translation pipelines, vendor and reviewer programs, and the tooling that keeps globalization fast and reliable. What you need to join us 5+ years in globalization, localization, internationalization, or a closely related discipline. A track record of managing and mentoring cross-functional globalization teams. Experience globalizing both product and marketing across several departments or business lines at once. A history of launching products in multiple international markets, including the genuinely complex ones – think China or Brazil. Hands-on experience deploying or governing a globalization/translation content management system. Working knowledge of linguistic quality frameworks and language automation pipelines (MT, AI-assisted translation, post-editing). A solid grasp of product analytics and UX research methods, and how to apply them to localization decisions. Strong communication and influence without authority skills.
