RESPONSIBILITIES

Kforce's retail client in San Francisco, CA is looking for an experienced Senior Product Manager, Stores Technology to lead and support the delivery, rollout, and adoption of technology solutions across a large-scale retail store environment. This role will be hybrid in SF.

Summary
