About the Role

The Product Manager II — Innovation is a delivery-focused individual contributor within the Innovation & Growth Value Stream, responsible for executing early-stage initiatives that explore new capabilities, technologies, and business models across all customer touchpoints — stores, online, and emerging channels.

This role supports concept incubation, pilot launches, and rapid experimentation that enhance the end-to-end customer journey. Innovation efforts may span in-store experiences, omnichannel fulfillment models, AI-enabled capabilities, operational automation, and new engagement channels.

Operating in high-ambiguity environments, the Product Manager II ensures innovation concepts move from idea to pilot to scalable capability with disciplined execution, measurable success criteria, and clear learning outcomes.

About the Customer Journey Product Management Team

The Customer Journey product management organization within GTS owns the end-to-end digital and omnichannel customer experience — from how customers discover our products, to how they choose, purchase, receive, and build lasting relationships with our brands. We are organized into seven Value Streams aligned to the stages of the customer journey — Discover, Choose, Purchase, Post-Purchase, Customer Lifecycle & Loyalty, Innovation & Growth, and Content Supply Chain — plus a Customer Journey Orchestration Office that drives cross-stream performance, intake, and strategic coordination.

Our operating model is built on a core belief: owning capability performance, not just feature delivery. Every team in Customer Journey is accountable for measurable business impact — we drive adoption with cross-functional partners and iterate until capabilities perform, connecting product management craft to the metrics that matter to our brands and our customers.

We partner closely with Engineering, UX, Data Science & Analytics, Architecture, and our brand and merchant organizations to deliver experiences that drive growth and build customer loyalty. Customer Journey is at the center of Gap Inc.’s commerce transformation — leveraging AI, unified commerce, and modern content operations to build the next generation of omnichannel retail experiences.
