You will own the vision and roadmap for how everything on Vinted is structured, described, and discovered. This role sits at the heart of the marketplace, shaping the category structure and metadata that power how millions of items are listed, found, and bought every day.

Your mission is to unlock Vinted’s evolution from a fashion-first marketplace into a truly multi-vertical platform — spanning Electronics, Home, and Collectables — while preserving the simplicity and consistency users love. You’ll define the product strategy that lets Vinted scale horizontally without fragmenting the experience.

This is a high-impact, horizontal product role. You set the rules for how items are organized across the entire marketplace, designing the connective tissue between Supply (making it effortless for sellers to list accurately) and Discovery (making it intuitive for buyers to find exactly what they want through search and filters). The decisions you make here shape every listing, every search, and every transaction.

You will operate in a unique structure that combines product strategy with operational execution:

• Your Team: You work within a dedicated product team that owns the category experience
• Operational Team: You are the primary product partner for the Taxonomy team (1 Manager + 4 Taxonomists + 1 Ops Specialist). They execute the manual category changes and rule updates based on the roadmap you define.
• Data Support: You'll partner with Decision Scientists to help model category performance and attribute usage.

Product Strategy & Roadmap:

• Develop and own the rolling 12-month roadmap for category optimizations and expansion.
• Decide the "Minimum Viable Experience" for new verticals: determine which attributes are mandatory vs. optional to balance listing speed with search relevance.

Opportunity Discovery:

• Use marketplace analysis and user research to identify high-impact category problems (e.g., "Users can't find 'Vintage' items because the attribute is hidden").
• Validate these opportunities through prototyping and testing before rolling them out at scale.

Cross-Domain Leadership:

• Act as the single point of contact for cross-domain category challenges. You don't just build for your team; you define the data standards that the Search, Listing, and Shipping teams rely on.
• Escalate unresolved trade-offs (e.g., Commercial wants more granular categories vs. Design wants a simpler UI) with evidence and clear recommendations.

Metrics & Performance:

• Define and track success metrics for the domain, specifically: Entity Performance (conversion rates per category), Time-to-First-Click (search efficiency), and Attribute Completeness.
• Partner with Decision Scientists to build dashboards that monitor the health of our catalog structure.

• Horizontal Influence: You drive initiatives that require work from engineering squads in other domains (e.g., updating the Upload Form UI). You must be able to align stakeholders and steer delivery without always having direct authority over the execution resources.
• Complexity Management: You are the gatekeeper. You will constantly receive requests to add new niche categories. Your job is to assess the value of these requests against the complexity they add to the platform.

• Experience: Proven experience in product management within e-commerce, marketplace, or catalog-focused domains.
• Analytical: You are comfortable defining metrics, working with Data Scientists, and using data to make trade-off decisions.
• Communication: Excellent ability to synthesize technical constraints (metadata structure) and business needs (vertical growth) into clear written specifications.
• Bonus: Experience with metadata design, search relevance, or AI-driven classification systems.
