  • Work with our co-founders to iterate upon and evangelize the vision as well as short and long term product strategy for our current suite of products and all product offerings going forward
  • Own the role of player/coach, rolling up your sleeves to work alongside your team, while providing thoughtful guidance, strong leadership development, mentorship and coaching for our product managers, designers and UX researchers
  • Represent the customer by building impactful, personal relationships, championing them and bringing their voice into the product creation process

  • Own our KPI’s, metrics and acquisition numbers inside and out and be prepared to discuss growth objectives at the drop of a hat
  • Collaborate with our Creative Director (who will own all marketing and branding campaigns) to ensure consistency in voice, brand and feel across all products/features
  • Aid in hiring for our dynamic team of product managers, designers, and UX researchers

What we're looking for:

  • Strong ability to collaborate and communicate with C-level executives, functional heads of technology, marketing, sales, operations, compliance and legal, and finance, as well as our Board of Directors
  • Demonstrated experience with optimizing conversion funnels, site analytics, site testing, CRM, and marketing systems in a B2C environment
  • Familiarity with “Squad methodology” in product development
  • Superior communication skills, including the ability to crystallize and broadly socialize insights into stakeholder needs that the stakeholders themselves may not be able to articulate
  • Fluency and comfort with data, including the ability to use data to analyze and monitor product health, set goals and drive acquisition
