I’m looking to add an associate PM and mid level PM to my team at Synaptik Digital. I’m based out of our NJ office but we have locations in Atlanta and San Francisco. Currently all virtual so location isn’t important for the right person. If you’re looking to get out of typical agency life this is a great place to be.
