Head of Product

We are looking for a visionary Head of Product to serve as the chief architect of our product ecosystem and user experience. As the foundational leader of our product organization, you will bridge the gap between high-level business strategy and technical execution, owning the entire lifecycle from initial discovery to global delivery. You are a strategic thinker who can operate at a 30,000-foot view to define our market positioning while maintaining the tactical rigor required to ship world-class features. This is a high-leverage role where you will establish the frameworks, culture, and roadmap that will define our company’s future, eventually scaling a specialized team of product managers and designers under your leadership.

Tasks

• Product Vision & Strategy: Define and communicate a product roadmap that aligns with our core business objectives and anticipates shifting industry trends.
• End-to-End Product Ownership: Lead the full product development lifecycle, from gathering requirements and writing detailed PRDs to overseeing development and conducting post-launch analysis.
• Customer Discovery & Insights: Build a continuous feedback loop with our users, leveraging qualitative interviews and quantitative data to identify "unmet needs" and high-growth opportunities.
• Cross-Functional Orchestration: Act as the primary bridge between Engineering, Design, and Sales to ensure every feature is technically feasible, beautifully designed, and commercially viable.
• GTM & Product Marketing: Partner with the leadership team to craft compelling product narratives and ensure successful market launches that drive adoption and retention.
• Organizational Scaling: Design the internal processes and "product operating system" that will allow the department to scale efficiently as the team grows.

Requirements

• Leadership Pedigree: 5+ years of product leadership experience, with a proven track record of taking products from "0 to 1" and scaling them to significant market share.
• Startup DNA: Experience as a founding or early product hire in a startup; you thrive in high-autonomy environments where you are the primary decision-maker.
• Analytical Rigor: Deep proficiency in product analytics and the ability to turn raw data into a compelling product story.
• Design Intuition: A high bar for UI/UX; you understand that in today’s market, "good enough" is a risk, and you advocate for a seamless, intuitive user journey.
• Technical Literacy: You can hold your own in a deep-dive architectural discussion with the Director of Engineering and understand the trade-offs of different tech stacks.
• Communication Mastery: Exceptional ability to influence stakeholders at all levels, from presenting to the Board to rallying the engineering team around a new feature.
• Team Building & Leadership: Build the product department from the ground up—identifying who we need to hire next and leading the recruitment and mentorship of future Product Managers and Designers as we scale.
