Location: New York, NY or Remote

Reports To: Senior Vice President, Data & Product Strategy

 

Bright Power works with forward thinking owners and developers to identify, design, and implement custom energy and water solutions on a wide variety of systems. Our team is comprised of a diverse, talented, and hard-working group of individuals committed to growing this industry and to making a positive impact on the environment.

Join Us

Bright Power has been a transformative player in clean energy and sustainable housing for 15 years. Our Clients include affordable housing owners and developers, Fortune 1000 financial and real estate investors, privately held firms, and some of the nation’s largest property managers. 


We are passionate about reducing energy and water usage through the implementation of energy efficiency and renewable energy technologies. Our goal is to improve the health, comfort, and value of our client’s buildings, while cultivating a sustainable future. We believe deeply in doing well by doing good and come to work every day seeking to change the world. 

The Role

We’re looking for an Associate Product Manager to help build and scale a new client-facing software platform in the energy management space. This role is ideal for someone with 2–4 years of experience who enjoys solving complex problems and working across teams to deliver meaningful product outcomes. 

You’ll sit at the center of product, software engineering, and stakeholders—translating needs into action, keeping teams aligned, and helping us build products that genuinely work for the people who use them. 

 

Key Responsibilities 

Build & Ship Product 

  • Support product requirements, user stories, and feature development 
  • Organize and maintain documentation of product scopes, feature plans, timelines, and roadmaps 
  • Translate user and business needs into clear, actionable specs 
  • Act as a trusted resource for product knowledge across teams 
  • Help teams balance user experience, business priorities, and technical constraints 

Testing & Quality 

  • Own feature testing and validation ahead of releases, coordinating internal resources as testers where needed 
  • Identify and track bugs, edge cases, workflow issues, friction points, unmet needs, and opportunities for improvement 
  • Ensure features align with real-world user behavior and expectations 

Insights & Product Impact 

  • Organize feedback about user needs, motivations, and pain points 
  • Build relationships with stakeholders to understand goals, constraints, and success criteria 
  • Gather and synthesize qualitative and quantitative insights into concrete product improvements 
  • Use SQL and data analysis to validate insights and understand product performance 
  • Distill complex data into simple, decision-ready takeaways 

Product Ops & Execution 

  • Partner closely with software engineering and stakeholders to ensure product work reflects real user and business needs 
  • Keep roadmaps, specs, and timelines clear, accessible, and aligned across teams 
  • Proactively surface risks, ask questions, and help teams navigate tradeoffs 
  • Ensure decisions and changes are communicated with context—not just updates 
  • Support smooth, predictable releases through early and consistent alignment 

Communication & Coordination 

  • Build trust-based relationships across teams to keep work moving and aligned 
  • Facilitate cross-functional conversations and written updates that clarify goals, uncover concerns, and drive shared understanding

  • Help maintain a structured, transparent product development process
