From start-up to industry leader, innovation is in our DNA and every employee has an opportunity to make their mark.

KAYAK is seeking a Product Manager, Marketing to own and optimize our SEM Marketing Landing Pages—the critical first touchpoint for millions of travelers finding their perfect trip through search marketing. In this fixed-term role (12-18 months), you will bridge marketing performance with user experience, driving measurable improvements through rigorous experimentation and data-driven optimization.

As Product Manager for SEM Landing Pages, you will lead a cross-functional team including Engineering, Design, SEO, and Performance Marketing to develop, test, and iterate on landing page experiences that convert. You will own the hypothesis-to-insight pipeline: identifying opportunities, designing A/B tests, analyzing results, and translating findings into actionable product improvements.

This position requires you to commute to our Berlin office 3 times a week.

In this role, you will:

• Own the SEM landing page product roadmap, prioritizing features and experiments based on conversion impact, user experience, and alignment with marketing objectives

• Design and execute a continuous testing program, developing hypotheses, running A/B and multivariate tests, and driving statistically rigorous analysis to inform product decisions

• Lead cross-functional collaboration with Engineering (who build the pages), SEO (for organic/paid alignment), Design (for user experience), and Performance Marketing (for campaign strategy and goals)

• Manage the full product lifecycle for landing page features, from initial concept and user research through technical requirements, sprint planning, launch, and post-launch measurement

• Analyze performance data using SQL, analytics tools, and testing platforms to identify friction points, growth opportunities, and winning variations

• Champion the user perspective while balancing business goals, ensuring landing pages deliver value to travelers while meeting marketing efficiency targets

• Communicate insights and progress to product leadership and marketing stakeholders, translating test results into strategic recommendations

• Drive continuous improvement through iterative testing, performance monitoring, and a relentless focus on conversion rate optimization

Please apply if you have:

• Have 3-5+ years of hands-on experience in product management, preferably in a B2C tech, e-commerce, or travel company.

• Possess a proven ability to independently manage and ship product features in an agile environment.

• Have demonstrated experience owning product features from concept to launch, including managing a backlog and working with engineering squads.

• Maintain strong analytical skills, with experience in A/B testing and data analysis to drive strategic decisions.

• Have excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to build consensus across technical and non-technical teams.

• Bring a strong sense of user empathy and a passion for building products that solve real-world traveler problems.

• Hold a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Business, or a related field, or have equivalent hands-on professional experience.

• Thrive in a high-ownership environment where you can take initiative and move projects forward with minimal supervision.
