what3words
Street addresses weren’t designed for 2025. They aren’t accurate enough to specify building entrances, and they don’t exist for parks, rural areas and many parts of the world. This makes it hard to find places and causes problems and inefficiencies on a global scale.
That’s why we created what3words. We divided the world into 3m squares and gave each square a unique combination of three words. It’s the easiest way to find and share precise locations.
Over the last year, what3words has been used in 193 countries, and our monthly active users continue to grow at an impressive pace. Our tech is used by emergency services, delivery companies, eCommerce businesses, ride-hailing apps and NGOs, and is integrated into the navigation systems of millions of cars around the world.
Who we’re looking for
Based in Vietnam out of our centrally located Ho Chi Minh City office, we are looking for a Technical Product Manager with a passion for creating and evangelising great products to join the what3words product team. Our products include APIs, SDKs, mobile apps, a map site, e-commerce plugins, automotive apps, and more—essentially, any interface that connects users to what3words technology. If it's our technology and it has the what3words name on it, the Product team will be involved somehow.
Reporting to our Group Product Manager, this role will be instrumental in managing our products. On a day-to-day basis, you’ll be responsible for working closely with our Business Development, Marketing, Growth and Tech teams to ensure our products meet the needs of what3words as well as our users. You will be managing the development team’s backlog for your products, defining user stories, running sprint meetings, and co-ordinating with the business to ensure on-time and to-specification feature releases. You’ll also work closely with our Product Designers to develop and test great new features to help users get the most out of what3words technology.
With a strong technical background and an ideally proven track record of managing technology products, you’ll be adept at consolidating an ever-changing range of “to-dos” into agile development cycles whilst being able to respond to both shorter-term opportunities and keep in line with the company’s overall strategic priorities.
Our team is a group of talented people from all over the world on an unprecedented journey. Every day brings new challenges and we are always learning. You will be proud to see your individual and team contributions making a real difference.
