Head of Product

🐶 Our mission

🚀 The opportunity

💻 The role

🛠 What you’ll do

• Own Snout's product strategy and roadmap, balancing clinic-facing tools, the pet parent experience, and the core platform that connects them
• Set OKRs and the bar for how we scope, ship, and measure impact
• Partner with engineering, design, GTM, and CX leadership to turn strategy into a roadmap the whole company can plan around
• Build the product operating rhythm from scratch: discovery, prioritization frameworks, sprint cadence, and how we decide what not to build
• Represent product in front of leadership and the board, translating usage data and market signals into a clear narrative about where Snout is headed
• Create a product management playbook, building a function that can scale well past Series A
• Hire, manage, mentor/coach product managers and grow a lean but high performing product team

💡What we're looking for

• 7+ years in product management, including experience managing and developing other product managers
• A track record of building or scaling a product function inside an early or growth-stage startup, ideally Series A to Series C
• Experience owning a multi-sided product (marketplace, B2B2C, or platform) where you had to balance competing user needs
• Strong technical fluency: you can go deep with engineering on architecture tradeoffs and speak credibly to a technical roadmap
• Problem solving using first principles and comfort operating with real ambiguity and thin resources, and the judgment to know what deserves rigor and what doesn't
• A collaborative leadership style that earns trust across GTM, CX, and engineering, and not just within product

🌟 What will make you stand out

• Prior experience as a first or founding product hire at an early-stage startup
• Background in health tech, insurance, fintech, or another regulated or trust-driven category
• Experience building products for two distinct audiences at once (for example, a B2B customer and their end consumer)
• Fluency with AI-assisted development and prototyping tools, and a point of view on where AI belongs in the product itself

💖 Why you should join Snout

• Fast growing, venture capital backed technology company focused on improving access to veterinary care
• Ability to have a meaningful impact from Day 1, where your voice and opinion matters
• Unlimited potential to grow in your career, learn and expand your skillsets
• Collaborative, flexible, and friendly culture

❌ Why this role might not be a fit for you

• You don’t live near an airport or have the flexibility to travel quarterly
• You want an established product org with playbooks already in place, rather than the chance to write them
• You're looking for an IC-heavy role rather than one focused on building and leading a team
• The pace and uncertainty of startup life feels destabilizing rather than energizing
• You haven't managed people before, or you're looking to step back from management rather than lean into it
• You don't have a connection to animals or an affinity for our mission

💸 Compensation

• $180 000 - $250 000 base salary
• Equity

⚕️Benefits

• Day 1 medical/dental/vision benefits
• Flexible time off + 11 Snout calendar holidays
• Paid parental leave
