Hiring: Principal Product Manager, Rental Listings Company: Zillow Location: United States Job Posted Time: 2026-09-10 10:17:20 Employment Type: Remote Target Skills & Keywords : Data Pipeline, Product Development Lifecycle About the job Experience: •10+ years in a Product Management role, with a focus on building consumer-facing technology products. Marketplace and/or e-commerce experience required. Required Skills: •Every renter journey on Zillow starts with inventory. If the underlying listing data isn't complete, accurate, and rich, nothing downstream — messaging, touring, applications, leasing — performs the way it should. This role owns that foundation. •This is a high-visibility, strategic product role — not a narrow pipeline role. Get this right and you create a flywheel: richer inventory drives more renter engagement, which attracts more and better inventory. You're building the marketplace's core advantage. •Listing completeness & quality: Raise the depth and quality of listing data across all inventory — pricing transparency, amenities, media richness, and the completeness scores that directly drive renter trust and conversion. You'll define what "great" looks like and build the system that gets inventory there at scale. •Coverage & inventory growth: Grow the breadth and depth of rental inventory on Zillow across property types and sourcing channels. •Data & content partnerships: Source new content partnerships (media, floor plans, review content) and optimize existing feed and aggregator relationships — negotiating, onboarding, and tuning third-party data sources so Zillow has the most comprehensive, highest-quality rental selection anywhere. •Platform reliability & syndication: Partner with engineering to keep the listings pipeline stable, performant, and trustworthy — balancing committed roadmap work against urgent partner escalations, and making disciplined tradeoffs when the two collide. •Measurably better listings: A rising share of inventory delivered complete, accurate, and rich — backed by a completeness standard the whole ecosystem can rally around. •Broader, deeper coverage: Meaningful growth in rental inventory across channels and property types. Qualifications: •You treat listings as a product, not a data feed. You care deeply about the completeness and quality of every listing on the platform — and you understand how upstream inventory decisions drive downstream renter experience and marketplace performance. You bring clarity to ambiguity, influence without authority, and make everyone around you better. •Inventory & marketplace strategy: You think holistically about supply-side strategy — growth, quality, and the flywheel between inventory depth and consumer engagement. •Data quality & systems thinking: You're comfortable working with feed engineering on data pipelines, completeness scoring, and quality frameworks. You understand how upstream data decisions ripple into the downstream renter experience. •Partnership management: You've managed data and content partnerships at scale — negotiating, onboarding, and optimizing third-party data sources — and you're credible in the room with external partners. •Prioritization under pressure: You can hold a committed roadmap while absorbing unplanned work, with disciplined scope management and clear, honest tradeoff communication. •Exceptional communication skills (verbal, written, and visual) with the ability to articulate complex ideas to both technical and non-technical audiences and influence at all levels. •Consistent record of shipping successful products at scale. •Passion for the real estate industry and a commitment to Zillow Group's mission and values. •Zillow is honored to be recognized among the best workplaces in the country. Zillow was named one of FORTUNE 100 Best Companies to Work For® in 2025, and included on the PEOPLE Companies That Care® 2025 list, reflecting our commitment to creating an innovative, inclusive, and engaging culture where employees are empowered to grow. •No matter where you sit in the organization, your work will help drive innovation, support our customers, and move the industry—and your career—forward, together. Compensation: •Flexible work environment (work from home / hybrid options) Interested candidates, please apply directly through the job posting on company's career page or try via AI auto apply on this platform.
