Meet the team behind this journey

As Staff Product Manager for Voice Meetings, you will own DeepL’s most business-critical Voice product end-to-end. Your mandate is clear: grow usage, revenue, and customer impact, while consolidating Voice Meetings as the leading real-time translated meetings solution in the industry.

You will operate with a founder-like mindset, balancing strategy and execution, customer needs and business outcomes, UX quality and technical constraints. This is a highly visible role with direct impact on DeepL’s growth trajectory.

Your responsibilities

Own the Product End-to-End

• Take full responsibility for Voice for Meetings across discovery, delivery, adoption, and growth.
• Define and evolve the product vision, strategy, and roadmap.
• Own success metrics across usage, retention, monetization, and customer satisfaction.

Drive Product-Led Growth

• Scale meeting usage measured in millions of translated minutes.
• Identify and optimize key PLG levers: activation, engagement, expansion, and retention.
• Partner closely with Data, Growth, and GTM teams to ensure product decisions translate into measurable business impact.

Build Exceptional User Experiences

• Lead with strong UX judgment in a real-time, multi-participant environment.
• Work closely with Design to create intuitive, low-friction experiences for hosts and participants.
• Balance simplicity for end users with power and configurability for enterprise customers.

Be the Voice of the Customer

• Engage directly with customers—enterprise admins, hosts, and end users.
• Translate customer feedback, usage patterns, and market signals into clear product decisions.
• Represent customer needs credibly with Engineering, Research, Sales, and Leadership.

Collaborate Across the Organization

• Work hand-in-hand with Engineering and Research to ship reliable, scalable, real-time products.
• Partner with Sales, Marketing, and Partnerships to support launches, positioning, and enterprise adoption.
• Manage senior stakeholders with clarity, data, and strong product judgment.

• Diverse and internationally distributed team: joining our team means becoming part of a large, global community with people of more than 90 nationalities. We're more than just colleagues; we're a group of professionals with a shared mission to connect diverse cultures. Our global presence is growing–we've doubled in size nearly every year, with our employees based in the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, the US, and Japan, and we continue to expand our network.
• Open communication, regular feedback: as a language-focused company, we value the importance of clear, honest communication. We value smooth collaboration, direct and actionable feedback, and believe that leading with empathy and growth mindset makes us better together.
• Hybrid work, flexible hours: we offer a hybrid work schedule, with team members coming into the office three times a week. This allows you to engage directly with your team and experience the unique energy of our workspace, while still enjoying the flexibility and comfort of working from home. With flexible working hours and trust in your productivity, we are in sync with your team’s general locations and time zones to foster effective and seamless collaboration.
• Monthly full-day hacking sessions: every month, we have Hack Fridays, where you can spend your time diving into a project you're passionate about and get the opportunity to work with other teams–we value your initiatives, impact, and creativity.
• 30 days of annual leave: we value your peace of mind. With 30 days off (excluding public holidays) and access to mental health resources, we make sure you're as strong mentally as you are professionally.
• Competitive benefits: just as our team spans the globe, so does our benefits package. We've crafted it to reflect the diversity of our team and tailored it to align with your unique location, to ensure you feel supported every step of the way.

If this role and our mission resonate with you, but you're hesitant because you don't check all the boxes, don't let that hold you back. At DeepL, it's all about the value you bring and the growth we can foster together. Go ahead, apply—let's discover your potential together. We can't wait to meet you!
