About the Role

The Product Manager I — Growth is a foundational individual contributor within the Innovation & Growth Value Stream, supporting product delivery for new business and category expansion initiatives, beginning with Beauty and Accessories. This role builds product management craft through backlog ownership, documentation, and QA partnership while contributing to capabilities that enable incremental demand and revenue growth. The Product Manager I works closely with the Product Manager II and Engineering to ensure new category features are clearly defined, properly tested, and delivered with quality. This position provides exposure to how new business strategies translate into scalable digital commerce capabilities across assortment setup, pricing, content, checkout, and post-purchase workflows. About the Customer Journey Product Management Team The Customer Journey product management organization within GTS owns the end-to-end digital and omnichannel customer experience — from how customers discover our products, to how they choose, purchase, receive, and build lasting relationships with our brands. We are organized into seven Value Streams aligned to the stages of the customer journey — Discover, Choose, Purchase, Post-Purchase, Customer Lifecycle & Loyalty, Innovation & Growth, and Content Supply Chain — plus a Customer Journey Orchestration Office that drives cross-stream performance, intake, and strategic coordination. Our operating model is built on a core belief: owning capability performance, not just feature delivery. Every team in Customer Journey is accountable for measurable business impact — we drive adoption with cross-functional partners and iterate until capabilities perform, connecting product management craft to the metrics that matter to our brands and our customers. We partner closely with Engineering, UX, Data Science & Analytics, Architecture, and our brand and merchant organizations to deliver experiences that drive growth and build customer loyalty. Customer Journey is at the center of Gap Inc.'s commerce transformation — leveraging AI, unified commerce, and modern content operations to build the next generation of omnichannel retail experiences.
