This role is designed for a seasoned operator with 8–10 years of experience, likely coming from a high-growth tech company, management consulting, or finance. You should be a "heavy lifter" who can move seamlessly from high-level strategy to the granular execution of logistics, payments, and fraud prevention. Proficiency in data analysis—specifically extracting insights to build product roadmaps—is essential. The compensation is highly competitive ($160k–$245k), paired with a "remote co-located" model that offers the flexibility of home work with the community of major city hubs. The benefits package is exceptionally robust, featuring a 4% 401k match, a dogfooding budget to shop on the platform, and comprehensive family planning and childcare allowances. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Thrive in "ambiguous" environments where you have to build systems from scratch. * Have a track record of leading complex, cross-functional projects between Product and Engineering teams. * Are comfortable using SQL/data tools to justify your strategic recommendations. * Live within commuting distance of NYC, SF, Phoenix, or LA.
