The opportunity
This role exists because we need to level up, in execution, in velocity, and in craft. Your mission is to own USC's member-facing digital experience, our app and web platform, and drive the relentless improvement of every touchpoint a member has with our product. Working in close partnership with our founders, the CPTO and VP of Product & Design, you'll help shape the strategy and then make it happen. You'll build the team, set the pace, and ship world-class product that users don't just use, they rave about.
We don't need a theorist. We need a builder. Someone who has felt the heat of delivering at scale, who sets the bar high and holds the line, and who understands that great design and rigorous execution are not a trade-off, they're the same thing.
And here's what we're clear about: the Love Brand vision isn't just about how the product feels. It's about building an experience so compelling it directly drives member retention, engagement, and commercial growth across our markets. Beautiful product and profitable product are the same goal.
