VP, Product

Bubble is a revolutionary software development platform with a simple mission: make technology accessible to everyone and help people bring their ideas to life. Rather than specializing in one or two aspects of web development, Bubble’s full-stack visual programming interface does it all, allowing you to customize your UX with a drag-and-drop editor, build out logic, manage databases, and integrate with anything via plugins and API. 

With all the tools needed to build a site like Facebook or Airbnb, anyone from first-time entrepreneurs to enterprise-level companies can take an idea from concept to fully functional, scalable reality faster and cheaper than you could with just code. As the only full-stack, no-code platform on the market with over 3 million users in over 100 countries, Bubble is breaking down the barriers to entrepreneurship and innovation across the globe.

What we’ve achieved:

Our product is working, and we are thriving. Entire VC-backed companies have been built entirely on Bubble. After finding product market fit and 8 years of bootstrapping, we raised a $100 million Series A and we’re one of the fastest-growing companies in the New York tech ecosystem. 

You can build just about anything on Bubble. For example, all new hires build Bubble apps as part of their onboarding, and a recent hire on our Customer Success team built their own version of the social media application Goodreads in 4 days. It has user authentication, an activity feed, upvotes, commenting, followers, lists, account management, live updates, a fully loaded database, API connectivity, and more.

About the Product team:

The Product team at Bubble drives our company's success through an obsession with creating delightful user experiences and meticulous attention to detail. We foster a collaborative culture where Engineering, Design, and Product work as equals. Our team includes 5 Product Managers, 1 Product Analyst, 1 Researcher, and our Design team (via Director of Design), all sharing a growth mindset where curiosity pairs with a desire to ship quickly. We operate with a strong sense of urgency in our fast-changing landscape, constantly pushing meaningful improvements to maintain our position as the leading platform.
