Description du poste

About Us

We are a fast‑growing hair accessories brand, primarily selling in the English markets. We've proven our product‑market fit and are now ready to take our product excellence to the next level.

The Opportunity

We're at a pivotal moment. Our products are selling well, but we know we can do better—much better. We're looking for a seasoned Product Manager who will take complete ownership of our product development and optimization strategy. This isn't a support role; this is THE leadership position for product.

What You’ll Do

You will have end‑to‑end responsibility for creating the best hair accessory on the market. This means:

• Own the product vision: Define what "perfect" looks like for our core product line and build the roadmap to get there.
• Lead product development: Take projects from initial concept through design, prototyping, testing, manufacturing, and launch.
• Challenge everything: Question our current materials, design choices, and manufacturing processes.
• Make the calls: You’ll have decision‑making authority on product direction, suppliers, materials, and specifications.
• Drive optimization: Continuously improve our existing products based on customer feedback, market trends, and technical possibilities.
• Manage the supply chain: Work directly with manufacturers and suppliers to ensure quality, timelines, and cost targets.
• Report to leadership: Present your strategy, progress, and results directly to our COO and CEO.

What We’re Looking For

Experience & Expertise

• 5+ years in product management for physical consumer goods.
• Deep understanding of materials science and manufacturing processes.
• Experience managing the full product lifecycle from concept to market.
• Track record of launching successful products or significantly improving existing ones.
• Knowledge of quality control, testing protocols, and production scaling.

Skills & Mindset

• Autonomous: You don't need hand‑holding. You identify problems, propose solutions, and execute.
• Fast‑paced: You move quickly, test assumptions, and iterate without getting stuck in analysis paralysis.
• Organized: You juggle multiple workstreams, deadlines, and stakeholders without dropping the ball.
• Proactive: You anticipate issues before they become problems and spot opportunities others miss.
• Detail‑oriented: You obsess over the small things that make a product exceptional.
• Collaborative: While you work independently, you know when to bring in leadership and communicate effectively.

Must‑Haves

• Fluent in English.
• Experience with e‑commerce or DTC brands is a strong plus.
• Comfortable working 100% remotely across time zones.

What We Offer

Freedom & Impact

• Complete ownership of the product roadmap with minimal bureaucracy.
• Direct line to decision‑makers (COO / CEO) with no middle management layers.
• Ability to shape the future of a fast‑growing brand.

Working Environment

• 100% remote – work from anywhere.
• Freelance arrangement with flexibility.
• Fast‑moving, results‑driven culture.
• Small team means your work is visible and valued.

The Right Fit

You’re perfect for this role if you’re tired of corporate red tape and want to actually BUILD something. You love the tangible nature of physical products and get excited about the details—the feel, the finish, the functionality. You’re not looking for a 9‑5; you’re looking for a challenge where your expertise can shine and your impact is measurable.
