ABOUT THE ROLE: We’re hiring a Staff Product Manager to own the core marketplace experience. We’re rethinking things from the ground up—you won’t be inheriting a roadmap, a backlog, or a set of conventions. You’ll be building the product from the ground up alongside the CPTO. This role requires someone who thinks in systems. A marketplace is not a single product—it’s an ecosystem. You’ll need to hold the consumer experience, the practitioner experience, the matching logic, the trust and safety layer, the business model, and the growth loops in your head simultaneously, and make smart tradeoffs between them every day. You will report directly to the CPTO and work alongside a small, senior engineering team. There are no layers between you and the work, and no layers between you and the decisions that shape the company. WHAT YOU’LL OWN: Product Strategy & Vision • Define the product vision and strategy for the marketplace, grounded in deep user understanding, competitive analysis, and a clear-eyed view of the business model. • Own the roadmap end-to-end. Decide what to build, what to kill, and what to sequence—with conviction, not consensus. • Develop and maintain a strong point of view on where the wellness and longevity market is heading and how our product should evolve to lead, not follow. • TRUE 0→1 product thinking: identify the fastest and cheapest ways to validate core assumptions before committing significant engineering investment. Marketplace Systems Thinking • Design and optimize both sides of the marketplace: the consumer journey (discovery → trust → booking → retention) and the practitioner journey (onboarding → activation → growth → advocacy). • Develop frameworks for marketplace health: supply/demand balance, liquidity metrics, matching quality, and network effects. • Own the cold-start playbook. Figure out how to bootstrap supply and demand in new verticals and geographies. • Think critically about marketplace trust and safety—credential verification, reviews, dispute resolution—as a product surface, not an afterthought. Execution & Shipping • Partner with engineering and design to ship continuously. Write clear, opinionated specs. Run structured discovery. Make scope decisions that keep velocity high. • Instrument everything. Define success metrics for every feature. Run experiments. Kill things that aren’t working. • Balance competing priorities across consumer, practitioner, and platform workstreams while maintaining a clear view of the overall system. Business & Growth • Own the business logic of the marketplace: pricing models, take rates, subscription tiers, transaction economics. • Partner with growth and marketing on acquisition loops, activation funnels, and retention strategies for both sides of the marketplace. • Use data to identify the highest-leverage opportunities. Build the instrumentation and dashboards needed to operate with clarity. AI as a Force Multiplier • AI should be part of your daily operating system as a product manager. • Research synthesis: distilling user interviews, market data, and competitive intel at speed. • Spec and strategy drafting: using AI to accelerate writing, then applying your judgment to sharpen it. • Data analysis: querying, visualizing, and interpreting data with AI assistance. • Prototyping: rapi
