at Peek

🏢 About Peek

Peek is a leading platform for tours and activities, connecting travelers with unique experiences worldwide. With a focus on innovation and remote-first culture, it offers a dynamic environment where product managers can directly impact the travel tech ecosystem.

About This Role

As an Associate Product Manager at Peek, you will own features for ACME (a key product line) from discovery to launch, while also building and maintaining Workato integrations with Salesforce. This role blends product strategy with technical execution, making it ideal for someone who enjoys both defining vision and building solutions.

💡 A Day in the Life

Your day might start with a standup with engineers to discuss progress on Workato recipes, followed by reviewing Salesforce integration logs. Afternoon could involve analyzing SQL queries to monitor feature usage, then writing specs for the next sprint's ACME feature. You'll also sync with sales to understand integration pain points.

🎯 Who Peek Is Looking For

  • Has 1-2+ years of product management experience, with hands-on work in writing specs and managing backlogs.
  • Is proficient with Salesforce as an admin or power user, and comfortable with REST APIs, webhooks, and integration logic.
  • Possesses strong SQL skills and familiarity with Ruby, enabling data-driven decisions and technical collaboration.
  • Has experience with integration platforms like Workato or Zapier, and can design automated workflows between systems.

📝 Tips for Applying to Peek

1

Tailor your resume to highlight specific examples of owning features end-to-end, including discovery, spec writing, and launch.

2

Showcase any Workato or Zapier projects you've built, even if personal or academic, to demonstrate integration skills.

3

Quantify impact: e.g., 'Reduced manual data entry by 50% through Workato recipe automating Salesforce syncs.'

4

Mention your SQL proficiency with specific queries or dashboards you've built to inform product decisions.

5

Research Peek's product ACME (likely a booking or management tool) and reference it in your cover letter.
