Pacagen is a house of brands focused on disrupting consumer industries through
biotechnology-backed products built by our in-house research lab. We are actively
incubating new technologies in the immune, inflammation, and consumer health spaces. Our
first brand, Pacagen (pacagen.com), helps with allergies to pets and dust that >100K
customers use in our second year on the market. Our second brand, RE:YOU
(getreyou.com), is dominating the luxury haircare market and is already one of the fastest
growing brands ever after launching in July 2026.
We are a venture-funded startup and founded by experienced entrepreneurs who have built
and sold nine-figure businesses before. We are backed by some of the best venture firms in
the world (Maveron, Khosla Ventures, Mars, Imaginary Ventures) and are building a world-
class team together to transform the consumer health industry as we know it.
You’ll have the opportunity to help scale our finance operations working directly with our
senior leadership. The best candidate will have a proven track record for clear
communication and proactive problem-solving. You will be mentored by and working directly
with our co-founders who built and sold one of the fastest-growing science-backed beauty
brands ever. This role is for someone who actively enjoys working in a fast-paced
environment while taking on larger responsibilities within a rapidly growing organization.


Responsibilities:
● Manage expense reporting, supply chain invoices, and marketing budgets.
● Handle financial reporting to investors and collaborators.
● Proactively stay on top of and fix issues in our supply chain.
● Work on supply chain robustness for our retail launches and scaling.
● Other brand operations logistics.

Why work with us?
We’re a fast-paced startup that is delivering life-changing products. We have products that you
can believe in and a team that works hard to make sure that we can get those products into the
hands of the people that need them most. Working at Pacagen will be an exciting growth
opportunity for your career. You’ll get exposure to world-class partners, mentors, and innovative
people from every field.


Why NOT work with us?
You’ll notice that the phrase “fast-paced” is in this job description multiple times. Building an
amazing, profitable company in a few years is not easy and we aren’t here to pretend like it is
(believe us, we’ve done this before). Startups are stressful and not made for everyone, but on the
flip-side extremely rewarding. The best performers get a career boost more drastic than anything
they could imagine, but not everyone is fit for the job.
