What the data says
Four things the listings tell us
There are 1,302 open product roles across 354 companies on LandEarly right now, with 109 posted in the past week. Senior-level roles make up 59% of the openings, and 65% of roles that specify a work model are fully remote.
Weighted toward senior experience
59% of open product roles read as senior-level. Entry-level (intern + junior) roles are 3% - a signal of how open this field is to early-career candidates.
A remote-friendly field
Of product roles that specify a work model, 65% are fully remote and 15% are hybrid. (Many listings don't declare one - this is the share among those that do.)

Where the demand is
One field, 11 different jobs
“Product” is a bucket, not a job. It rolls up 11 titles that share a craft but not a day - different scope, different level, different pay band. Which title you're chasing is the first cut worth making.

Freshness
What’s open, by the week it posted
How old the live product pipeline is - the window where applying early still puts you in front of a human instead of a stack.
Jun 22This week
+109
product roles posted in the last seven days, across 354 employers - 8% of everything open in the field.
Each bar is the open roles posted that week, not a count of everything posted then: roles that have since closed are gone from it, so older weeks read lighter by design. The window starts when we began ingesting product listings, because a week-by-week series that ran further back would measure our board coverage rather than the market. 26 listings carry no posting date and sit out of this chart.
Pay, where disclosed
Base salary, from listings that state one
Base only. Bonus, commission and equity are real money but listings describe them too inconsistently to compare, so they stay out of the maths rather than inflate it.

Employers write locations as free text, so every spelling of a city is resolved to one market before it’s counted. A listing naming several markets counts in each, so these don’t sum to the field. The 774 that name no city - remote, “Hybrid”, a campus or a building - sit out entirely rather than get attributed to one.
Methodology
How we compute this
Short version: we count listings, we don't model them. Where the data is thin, the page says so instead of guessing.
Counted, not estimated
Every figure comes from the 1,302 active product listings we track across 12 applicant-tracking systems, ingested hourly from public job boards. A role that closes this morning drops out this afternoon.
Shares state their own denominator
Work-model percentages cover only the 630 listings that declare one. Experience level is read off every posting at ingest, so those shares cover the whole field. We’d rather show the smaller base than fill the gap.
A field rolls up related titles
Product covers Product Manager, Director of Product, AI Product Manager and 8 more titles. A posting joins a title when its own text describes that job - the roll-up is on the classified role, never on a keyword in the headline.
FAQ
Common questions
How many product jobs are open right now?
1,302 as of September 2026, across 354 companies, with 109 posted in the last seven days. The count is recomputed every hour and roles that close drop out the same day.
Which product roles are most in demand?
Product Manager (874 open), Director of Product (104 open), and AI Product Manager (61 open) - out of 11 product titles carrying at least one open role today.
Are product jobs remote?
Of the 630 product listings that declare a work model, 65% are fully remote, 15% hybrid and 20% on-site. Most listings never say, so this is the share among those that do - not of the whole field.
What does a product job pay?
Median disclosed base is $213k, with the middle 50% between $182k and $260k. That is base only, computed from the 417 open product listings that state an annual range - bonus, commission and equity are excluded because listings describe them too inconsistently to compare.
What experience level are product jobs?
59% of open product roles read as senior-level, and 3% are entry-level (intern or junior). The level is read off each posting when we ingest it, so every open role is counted here.
