The Product Manager, Employee Experience (EX) serves as a strategic leader responsible for designing, orchestrating, and continuously improving high-impact employee lifecycle experiences across T‑Mobile. Every employee experience — from onboarding to growth to life events to exit — exists to support business performance, engagement, and trust. This role is accountable for identifying friction across systems, aligning technical feasibility with employee needs and business objectives, and leading cross‑functional teams to deliver cohesive, scalable, and human‑centered experiences.

This Product Manager operates at the intersection of employee insight, technology platforms (Workday, UKG, Fidelity, Business Solver, Broadspire, Service Now), and enterprise strategy — ensuring lifecycle moments are seamless, compliant, and aligned with business priorities. No two days are the same. Responsibilities include lifecycle research, journey mapping, roadmap creation, cross‑system integration, backlog ownership, release planning, stakeholder alignment, and performance measurement.

This role requires deep empathy for the employee experience, strong product discipline, and the ability to influence across HR, IT, Payroll, and leadership teams.

This is a hybrid role (3 days/week) in the office. It can be based in Bellevue, WA;
Overland Park, KS;
Frisco, TX;
Downers Grove, IL.
