What it’s like to work at Topsort

Our team is all about straightforward communication, embracing feedback without taking it personally, and fostering a super collaborative environment. It’s a sports team that’s hyper focused on winning, collaborative internally, and competitive externally - never the other way around.

We thrive on working in the open, lifting each other up, and getting things done with a sense of urgency.

If it can be built today, we're all about getting it done today.

What is this role like?

We’re looking for a highly organized, systems-minded, and execution-driven Product Operations Manager to join Topsort’s growing Product team in our Boston office. This role sits at the intersection of Product, Engineering, Customer Success, and Commercial teams — helping ensure our product organization operates efficiently as we scale globally.

You’ll help bridge the gap between product strategy and day-to-day execution. From improving product workflows and release processes to creating operational visibility across teams, you’ll play a critical role in helping Topsort ship faster, communicate better, and scale smarter.

This is an ideal role for someone who thrives in fast-paced startup environments, enjoys bringing structure to ambiguity, and loves solving operational challenges behind the scenes that make product teams more effective.

You will:

• Drive operational excellence across the Product organization by improving workflows, processes, and cross-functional coordination
• Partner closely with Product Managers, Engineering, Design, and GTM teams to keep initiatives aligned and moving forward
• Help manage product planning cadences, roadmap tracking, sprint visibility, and launch coordination
• Build and maintain systems, dashboards, documentation, and reporting that improve visibility into product execution and team performance
• Identify bottlenecks, operational gaps, and communication breakdowns, then proactively solve them
• Coordinate product launches internally to ensure teams are aligned on timelines, updates, dependencies, and releases
• Support product analytics and operational reporting to help leadership make data-informed decisions
• Improve internal product documentation, onboarding materials, processes, and knowledge-sharing practices
• Manage and optimize product tools and systems such as Jira, Notion, Linear, Productboard, or similar platforms
• Partner with Customer Success, Sales, and Engineering teams to help close feedback loops between customers and Product
• Help create scalable operational foundations as Topsort continues growing across regions and product lines

What (we think) you need to be successful

• 1+ years of experience in Product Operations, Program Management, Business Operations, Product Management, Consulting, or similar operational roles in fast-paced tech environments
• Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple moving priorities at once
• Exceptional communication skills — you know how to bring clarity across technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Comfortable working cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Commercial, and Leadership teams
• Strong problem-solving mindset with the ability to identify inefficiencies and improve systems proactively
• Analytical thinking and comfort working with product metrics, operational data, and reporting
• Experience working with tools such as Jira, Notion, Confluence, Airtable, Productboard, or similar
• High ownership mentality — you’re someone who naturally steps in, figures things out, and drives execution forward
• Comfortable operating in ambiguity and building structure where processes may not yet fully exist
• Startup mentality: adaptable, resourceful, fast-moving, and excited to help scale a company in high-growth mode
• Bonus if you’ve worked in SaaS, AdTech, Retail Media, marketplaces, or technical B2B product environments
