About the Role The Product Finance & Strategy team partners with Product, Data Science, Engineering, User Research, and Design to surface key insights and drive strategic decision-making across our product portfolio. This is an investment and strategy role that will sit on the consumer side of Nextdoor business, covering content creation and distribution, local knowledge, user growth and retention, and the ad supply that funds it all. The analytical challenge is real - Nextdoor is a hyperlocal multi-sided platform where content, engagement, and monetization all interact, and the dynamics vary by neighborhood. The person in this role will build the frameworks to understand those relationships and use them to shape where Nextdoor invests. The team is flat, efficient, and an early adopter of AI agentic workflows - we spend our energy on strategy, frameworks, and critical insights, not reporting. You'd thrive here if you think in systems, default to ownership, and lead with the “so what”. At Nextdoor, we operate in an AI-first environment and expect every team member to actively use AI tools as part of their workflow. We aren't looking for prompt engineers; we’re looking for people who use tools like Claude, Gemini, ChatGPT, and Glean to challenge their own thinking and take full ownership of AI-assisted outputs. We also offer a warm and inclusive work environment that embraces a hybrid employment model, blending an in office presence and work from home experience for our valued employees. The hiring team will go over these expectations with you if you are being considered for a role near one of our offices in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, New York, and London. In this role, you will: Product investments: Drive decisions on 0→1 product bets, partnership evaluations, and changes to existing products by incorporating user research, conducting opportunity sizing, interpreting results of A/B tests, and evaluating longer-term impacts on Nextdoor product portfolio Growth & engagement loop modeling: Map how user behaviors chain into platform outcomes - how content creation and distribution shape daily activity, daily activity drives retention, and retention builds ad inventory. Surface where changes in one part of the loop have outsized effects elsewhere Platform & ecosystem analytics: Own ecosystem health measurement - designing new metrics and frameworks and incorporating neighborhood-level context, where aggregate metrics can obscure what's actually happening. Identify risks and opportunities before they surface in the numbers Product strategy & competitive intelligence: Develop a point of view on how consumer preferences and the competitive landscape are evolving - and translate that into strategic options for Nextdoor's product roadmap Forecasting & planning : Own the quarterly outlook for user growth and neighbor engagement. Participate in the product goal-setting process - defining what good looks like, not just measuring against it Investor Relations: Contribute to Board and Earnings narrative on product strategy and platform performance What You’ll Bring To The Team Experience: 4-10 years in strategic or analytical roles with technology context (e.g., Product Finance, BizOps, Strategy, Consulting, Venture Capital) Systems thinking: You trace how a change in one metric propagates through the rest - and you’re skeptical of analyses that don’t Comfort with ambiguity: You can navigate complex technical topics, educate yourself on new domains, and make defensible calls with incomplete data Analytical rigor: Proficiency with large datasets and tools such as Databricks and Looker. Ability to conduct deep-dive analyses and derive strategic insights Modeling skills: Experience building product P&Ls, operating forecasts, and unit economics models Communication: Exceptional storytelling and presentation skills, ability to distill technical concepts into actionable insights for diverse stakeholders across functional areas and levels of seniority Owner mindset: A bias towards action, strong work ethic, with superb product and business sense Rewards Compensation, benefits, perks, and recognition programs at Nextdoor come together to create one overall rewards package. The starting salary for this role is expected to range from $150,000 - $200,000 on an annualized basis, or potentially greater in the event that your 'level' of proficiency exceeds the level expected for the role. We also expect to award a meaningful equity grant for this role. With equal quarterly vesting, your first vest date would be within the first 3 months of your start date. Overall, total compensation will vary depending on your relevant skills, experience, and qualifications. We have you covered! Nextdoor employees can choose between a variety of great health plans. We cover 100% of your personal monthly premium for health, dental, and vision – and provide a OneMedical membership for concierge care.
