Product Manager

Amsterdam, Noord-Holland, NetherlandsProduct

Job description

Driven by a love of good food, design, and tech, we’ve built a restaurant growth platform that challenges the status quo. Now, we’re building the world's first fully fledged loyalty automation suite for mid- & high segment restaurants, combined with a brand new consumer platform to discover and (re)book the best restaurants in Europe.


Your Opportunity

  • Shift the paradigm in restaurant tech by building solutions that push the industry forward.

  • Deliver best-in-class products with a consistent and clean user interface. Our products are designed to be intuitive and easy to work with yet they deliver great value-add too and have tremendous impact on our customers and their businesses.

  • Improve our current frameworks and processes

What you’ll be doing

  • Perform mission discovery to define the problem space and desired outcomes (see Our way of working)

  • Defining & measuring success metrics for each of your missions

  • Contribute to the product roadmap by analyzing and prioritizing product feature requests

  • Conduct market research and competitor analysis

  • Develop an understanding of the customer journey through user research, including interviews, focus groups, and surveys

  • Incorporate data, research and market analysis to justify product decisions and tweaks.

  • Prepare content for internal and external release communications

Job requirements

  • You have a minimum of 4 years of experience as a Product Manager or similar role

  • You understand product requirements and user psychology

  • You are comfortable with data and uncovering insights

  • You have the ability to perform well in a fast-paced environment

  • You are great at collaborating with both technical and commercial colleagues

  • You have an entrepreneurial mindset: confident, yet eager to learn

  • You have an interest and passion for revolutionizing the restaurant industry

  • You are fluent in English


Our way of working

We aim to push boundaries, question the status-quo, and disrupt not only with our products but also within Formitable. In this case, doing it the Formitable-way means: instead of working with ‘Scrum’ or other popular frameworks, we’ve adopted a distinct agile approach: Mission-Lead Development. The key principles of this framework are:

  • Working together closely in smaller multidisciplinary teams.

  • Fully owning deliverables by always shipping full features.

  • Mission Led: we work towards a specific quantifiable goal - simply ticking off lists is a thing of the past.


Using the best of all worlds - within these mission cycles - we still use many agile tactics like stand-ups and retros. At the same time, we are constantly aiming to collaboratively improve our framework over time to best set up our teams for success.

Our 6-week development cycle is bookmarked by a week of planning/scoping and a buffer week where all newly built features are shipped.


The impact you’ll have

Our goal is to become the #1 sustainable growth platform for restaurants. We believe that restaurants have become lifestyle brands and with forward-thinking digital products, restaurateurs will create the same perfect experience online as they already do offline - resulting in a more valuable, loyalty-led business.

In this role you will have impact and will be touching on many different aspects of Formitable. Most notably:

  • Help restaurants succeed by improving and innovating products that serve 3500+ restaurants and their guests in Europe

  • Grow the adoption and recurring usage of the Formitable system while keeping CSAT (currently 96%) and NPS (currently 60) at our excellent levels


What we offer

  • A bright office in Amsterdam's Jordaan district, with a sun-drenched roof terrace and our own bar & restaurant

  • Daily restaurant-worthy lunches from our in house chef Roel Paping

  • 30 vacation days and 25 days working abroad

  • 20 unpaid leave days

  • A hybrid work environment

  • All the tools you need to be a high performer plus a €3000 annual training budget

  • An annual restaurant budget and monthly well-being budget

  • A free food tattoo of your choice

  • A Swapfiets to bike around Amsterdam or commuting allowance
