About The Position

Playlist is building new, AI-native vertical software to empower wellness businesses. This role involves driving the full product lifecycle of 0→1 solutions for SMB operators, defining tools and workflows, ensuring onboarding and adoption, and building a long-term roadmap. The Founding Product Manager will work as part of a small, fast-moving founding team, going into the field to learn from wellness business operators, design and iterate on product requirements, validate concepts, and leverage AI to accelerate development and create new customer experiences.

Requirements

7+ years of product experience, with experience building tools that real businesses depend on day-to-day.
Shipped 0→1 products and successfully scaled the customer base.
Built with AI or built AI-native products. You have real opinions on where LLMs break, how to design for probabilistic outputs, and how to earn user trust in an AI-driven experience.
Think like a GM. You've shaped positioning, influenced pricing and ICP definitions, and can articulate why a unit works, not just what to build.
Comfortable with ambiguity and high agency. You move without being told, define your own priorities, and thrive when the roadmap is yours to create.
Worked in a startup-stage environment and are motivated by building something that drives real outcomes.

Nice To Haves

Experience in health, wellness, fitness, or service-business SMB. You understand the texture of running a small practice or studio.

Responsibilities

Own, evolve, and champion the product vision, strategy, and roadmap for new vertical SMB products, aligned with our broader company vision and product ecosystem.
Drive our AI-native design philosophy: where AI replaces workflow, where it consults, and where it automates on behalf of the customer. Software that works while they're with a client.
Get into the field. Build direct relationships with practitioners, understand their unmet needs, and iterate live on what you learn.
Work directly with a small engineering and design team to ship fast; own the roadmap, the spec, and the release.
Partner with Playlist's GTM team to shape pricing, positioning, and a product-led growth motion that drives adoption.
Bring high agency and creativity to every stage of the build, from blank page to a product customers can't imagine running their business without.
