About The Position

We are seeking a Senior Product Manager to lead the evolution of our pharmacy ecosystem across veterinary care, ecommerce, and omnichannel retail experiences. This role sits at the intersection of healthcare, digital commerce, and platform integrations, and is responsible for building a seamless connection between veterinary prescribing, customer-facing experiences, and pharmacy fulfillment to deliver a seamless, omnichannel prescription journey. You will own the roadmap for prescription and therapeutic diet fulfillment, enabling pet parents to easily access medications prescribed both within our veterinary network and by external providers. You will partner closely with teams responsible for the veterinary practice management system, ecommerce platforms, and pharmacy operations to deliver a connected, end-to-end prescription experience. This role supports our full veterinary ecosystem, including Vetco Total Care Hospitals and Vetco Vaccination Clinics, while also enabling a best-in-class experience for customers filling third-party prescriptions through our online pharmacy. This is a high-impact individual contributor role with significant cross-functional leadership, influencing initiatives across product, engineering, veterinary operations, marketing, and external partners. While this role does not include direct people management, there is strong potential for future growth as the space continues to scale. This is a hybrid position based in San Diego, with in-office expectations Tuesday through Thursday. Petco has been serving pets for more than 60 years, providing everything they need to live their best lives, from meals and toys to trusted supplies and expert support. They believe in the universal truths of pet parenthood and are present for every step of the pet's journey. Petco is 29,000+ strong, nurturing the pet-human bond in over 1,500 stores across the U.S., Mexico, and Puerto Rico, 250+ Vetco Total Care hospitals, hundreds of preventive care clinics, and eight distribution centers. In 1999, Petco founded Petco Love, which supports thousands of local animal welfare groups nationwide and has helped find homes for approximately 7 million animals through in-store adoption events.
