There are no current openings for this department.

At Yousician, we believe music isn’t just something you listen to – it’s something everyone should feel empowered to play. Our mission is to make musicality as common as literacy by radically reimagining how people learn, practice, and grow as musicians.

With millions of users worldwide, we sit at the intersection of music, education, and technology. Whether you’re a beginner picking up your first instrument or a seasoned player honing your craft, our products help people unlock creativity, confidence, and joy through music.

You don’t need to be a musician to join us, but you do need a passion for building meaningful consumer experiences and a drive to make a real difference. We move fast, experiment boldly, and operate with high autonomy in tight cross-functional teams. If you're looking for a high-impact role in a purpose-driven company .... this is it.

WHY YOU SHOULD APPLY

Yousician is looking for a Chief Product Officer to lead the next phase of Yousician’s product evolution, someone who can set bold vision, drive strategy, and lead with executional excellence.

You’ll take full ownership of the company’s current consumer product portfolio and the design team, guiding a team of leaders across multiple squads. You’ll sit on the leadership team, reporting to the CEO, with direct accountability for driving product-led growth, user value, and strategic impact. This is a pivotal role at a company where the product is the engine, not a support function.

You’ll define where the company goes next and ensure you get there. You’ll lead from the front: shaping strategy, coaching PMs, collaborating cross-functionally, and jumping into discovery, design, or delivery when needed. You’ve done it before in the consumer space, and you're not afraid to do it again.

This is a rare opportunity to shape the future of music learning for millions, at a company at the intersection of creativity, technology, and purpose.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Own and evolve the product vision and strategy across the full consumer experience (currently Yousician, GuitarTuna app and GuitarTuna web) – grounded in user needs, market dynamics, and company objectives.
• Lead and grow (read: rebuild) a high-performing product org – coaching PMs, setting the bar, and creating space for autonomy and impact.
• Drive alignment at the highest level, working closely with the executive team and cross-functional leaders to connect product strategy to company goals.
• Champion a culture of discovery and experimentation, ensuring teams build the right things – and build them well.
• Stay close to the work – whether that’s joining discovery calls, digging into retention data, or sketching a new onboarding concept.
• Establish clear goals and accountability across teams using OKRs and other success frameworks.
• Scale systems, process, and practices that enable high-velocity product development without losing quality or purpose.
• Ensure a cohesive, high-quality user experience across platforms and product areas.

WHO YOU ARE

• A proven product leader with experience owning strategy, roadmap, and outcomes across consumer-facing products at scale.
• Experienced in mobile-first, B2C, or subscription models; ideally in fast-paced, product-led environments.
• A mix of visionary and operator – you see the big picture but don’t shy away from the details.
• Equally strong in customer insight and commercial acumen. You deeply understand user problems and how to build a sustainable business around solving them.
• Comfortable navigating ambiguity and complexity – you bring clarity, focus, and momentum.
• A natural leader and mentor. You’ve built and led product teams and know how to get the best out of people.
• Hands-on when needed. You’ve been in the trenches and know how to unblock a team, validate a concept, or move quickly when time is critical.
• Strong communicator with experience in aligning diverse stakeholders around product vision and strategy.

WHAT WE OFFER

• A defining leadership role in a mission-driven, product-led company.
• The opportunity to shape the product direction of a globally loved consumer brand with millions of users.
• A fast-moving, collaborative culture where product is central to everything we do.
• A competitive compensation package, including salary, stock options and perks.
• A world-class team with diverse backgrounds and deep passion for music, education, and technology.
• A flexible hybrid model, and an incredible office in central Helsinki and a brand-new office in Berlin.
• Relocation support and a soft landing in Helsinki, one of the world’s most livable cities, or in Berlin, known for its vibrant cultural scene and way of life in a relaxed environment in the heart of Europe.
