Senior Product Manager, GC Events

About this role

GiveCampus is the world's leading fundraising platform for non-profit educational institutions. Trusted by millions of donors and 1,300+ colleges, universities, and K-12 schools, our mission is to help advance the quality, the affordability, and the accessibility of education. At our current pace, we will facilitate $100 billion in charitable giving over the next decade–enough money to send more than 1 million students to college, tuition-free.

GiveCampus is backed by leading investors including Y Combinator, but we’re also practitioners of Sustainable Growth: we’ve made the Inc. 5000 list of America's fastest-growing private companies each of the last five years and we’ve been profitable nine of the last 10. In 2025, we celebrated a $140 million growth investment that included a major liquidity event for GiveCampus employees–the second in less than three years.

Our purpose-driven team of 130+ is located in 30+ states across the US: team members work from anywhere they choose. We have a beautiful 12,000sf office in Washington, DC that is available for people to use whenever they want, and we regularly organize team meet-ups, visit partner institutions, and host retreats in various locations.

While we operate at meaningful scale, we’re still small relative to the commercial and social good opportunities in front of us. Every GiveCampus employee plays a meaningful role in shaping what comes next, and we're growing the team in support of our ambitious plans–including a $100 million investment in AI product development. If you believe in the transformative power of education and want to join a fast-growing, mission-driven company, you’ll fit right in.

Location: This is a remote-first role based in the U.S. While we embrace flexible, distributed work, we also value in-person connection. Team members are expected to attend multiple company-wide and team-specific onsites throughout the year.

GC Events is our answer to the question "Can I run my homecoming, reunion, gala, or auction on GiveCampus, too?" The product is revenue-generating, well on its way to product-market fit, and serving a real, repeat need across our 1,500+ Partner schools. It's also one of the biggest growth levers in front of us.

We're hiring a Senior Product Manager to own GC Events end-to-end—not just the roadmap, but the commercial outcome. You'll be accountable for whether the number moves, and you'll drive everything required to move it on the product side: strategy, discovery, execution, shipping quality and velocity, launch readiness, adoption, operations, and any third-party vendors and integrations that sit in the flow. Engineering is one big input, and a critical one—but it isn't the whole job. The whole job is making GC Events the undisputed first choice for schools looking for best-in-class software to power event registration, ticketing, and auctions, and delivering 10x revenue growth by the end of 2027 while we do it.

You won't do that alone. GC Events has a dedicated GTM Lead who is your commercial counterpart—co-accountable for the number and responsible for messaging, positioning, pricing and packaging, launches, campaigns, sales enablement, demos, and RFPs. The two of you are joined at the hip. They bring the market and the buyer; you bring the product and the build. Together you make sure GC Events is built, shipped, positioned, sold, adopted, loved, and driving commercial results.

This is a PM role for someone who wants to operate like a GM of the product, ship like a builder, and go deeper with users than anyone else at the company, including in person at their events! It's also a PM role for the AI-native era. You reach for AI across your entire workflow—research synthesis, data analysis, drafting, prototyping, experimentation, shipping—and you think about AI as a core capability of the product itself, not a feature you bolt on.

You'll report to the Head of Product and work in close partnership with your GTM Lead counterpart, Engineering, Design, Data Science, Partner Operations, Partner Success, Marketing, Business Development, and Business Operations.

Successful Outcomes

• Commercial results, co-owned—whatever it takes: You and your GTM Lead co-own the GC Events commercial KR. Not a backlog. Not a velocity number. Not a feature list. If we ship the right thing but the number doesn't move, that's on both of you. If we ship nametag printing but the printers never arrived on time, it doesn't matter that we shipped it. You're accountable for the product half of the equation and whatever else it takes across functions, vendors, and external partners to actually move the number.

• Insanely close to users: You know GC Events better than anyone else on the planet, and you know our Partners the same way. You're on a text-message basis with the fundraisers running events at our schools—swapping voice notes with them on a Tuesday morning, showing up in person to watch them run registration at homecoming, taking them to lunch to hear what's broken. You know which Partners are thrilled, which are at risk of churn, and which deals we absolutely need to win. That depth is where you earn the authority to decide what we build—and the credibility to hold the line on those decisions when the room gets loud.

• Builder mindset: You don't just write PRDs—you make things, and you do it with AI in your hands all day. AI runs across your full workflow: synthesizing user interviews, interrogating data, drafting specs and briefs, prototyping flows, generating experiments you can test in hours instead of sprints. You use AI-powered tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Lovable, Figma Make, v0, and whatever's best this month) to ship small fixes, experiments, and companion apps yourself—if you see a broken flow and can fix it, you open a PR; you don't file a ticket and wait. This doesn't require a CS degree. It requires initiative, taste, and a refusal to let solvable problems sit.

• Strategy, prioritization, and AI in the…
