Head of Product

Role Description

As the Head of Product at ZODL, you will own product for everything a person touches, including Zodl today and future products. This role focuses on delivering a user experience for ZEC and is distinct from the Zcash protocol and Zallet.

• Work hand-in-hand with Design to shape solutions before they're built.
• Create product specifications that give Engineering the clarity to move confidently.
• Connect Engineering, Design, Marketing, Support, Partnerships, and Product R&D around shared priorities.
• Establish collaborative planning that keeps the organization aligned as our product portfolio grows.
• Build lightweight systems that create clarity without creating bureaucracy.

Qualifications

• Have shipped consumer products that ordinary people actually use, at scale.
• Understand crypto well enough to have opinions about it, and to know what normal people will never tolerate.
• Believe people should be able to control their own money without asking permission.
• Have helped scale financial products.
• Have built product capabilities, not simply managed roadmaps.
• Enjoy moving seamlessly between strategic thinking and day-to-day execution.
• Know when a process creates leverage, and when it creates friction.
• Are comfortable making decisions with imperfect information.
• Naturally connect people, ideas, and disciplines.
• Are humble enough to understand a system before changing it.
• Roll up your sleeves without being asked because that's what the situation requires.

Requirements

• Experience in product leadership roles.
• Strong understanding of consumer product development.
• Ability to work collaboratively across multiple functions.

Benefits

• Compensation: $200-250K base + meaningful equity.
• Remote work flexibility.
