We also love to hear from people who are motivated by meaningful work, resonate with our four core values, have a positive outlook, are comfortable with ambiguity and thrive working in an ever-evolving and complex environment.

Required qualifications for this role:

• Extensive experience in product management, preferably in health & fitness, SaaS, or a related industry.
