Product Development Lead

We are seeking a Product Development Lead for our client — a fast-growing e‑commerce brand scaling across Amazon, Walmart, Shopify, and TikTok Shop. This is a strategic role designed to reduce dependency on a single hero product and establish a repeatable, systematic product launch process that drives long-term growth. 📌 Key Responsibilities End-to-end product development: idea generation, market research, supplier sourcing, sample management, and launch execution. Build scalable systems: SOPs, playbooks, and pipeline trackers to ensure repeatable success. Lead supplier negotiations, manage quotes and samples, and maintain supplier databases. Execute product launches on Amazon: PPC strategy, Vine enrollment, coupon campaigns, and A/B content testing. Deliver clear, data-driven recommendations (Go/No-Go) and stand behind decisions. Provide weekly pipeline updates and monthly portfolio reviews to leadership. ✅ Must-Have Qualifications Proven track record of Amazon product launches from research through to successful sales. Expert-level Helium 10 proficiency (Black Box, Cerebro, Magnet, Xray) — able to teach others. Strong financial acumen: ability to build and interpret P&L, calculate margins, ROI, and COGS. Hands-on supplier management experience: Alibaba sourcing, negotiations, quotes, and sample evaluation. Launch execution expertise: PPC campaigns, Vine enrollment, coupon strategies, and A/B testing. Process builder mindset: creation of SOPs, playbooks, and scalable systems. Deep understanding of Amazon competitive dynamics: BSR, review velocity, launch costs, PPC requirements. Excellent written English communication skills for reports, briefs, and supplier correspondence. 🌟 Nice-to-Have Experience in kitchenware, homeware, or cooking categories. Background working with brands generating $1M+ revenue on Amazon (not only agency-side). Prior involvement in building launch playbooks or SOPs. Familiarity with Titan Network frameworks (States & Drivers, Roger’s launch template). Basic knowledge of logistics and operations (FBA, 3PL, freight). Awareness of TikTok Shop product trends. 🤝 Soft Skills Resilient and persistent — does not stop at obstacles, drives products to market. Creative yet practical — generates ideas and finds actionable solutions. Analytical thinker — delivers clear recommendations, not just raw data. Accountable — stands behind Go/No-Go decisions with confidence. Highly organized — manages multiple product pipelines and deadlines simultaneously. Strong communicator — produces clear briefs and negotiates effectively in English. 🎯 Ideal Candidate The ideal hire is a builder, not a reporter: someone who identifies challenges and proposes solutions. They think like an investor (evaluating risk and potential), act like a founder (owning execution and outcomes), and design systems that scale beyond their individual contribution. 💡 Benefits 2-week paid trial period. Performance bonus opportunities tied to successful product launches. Long-term role — building a 10-year company, not a short-term project. Flexible time off: 7 days for part-time and 14 days for full-time, usable for vacation, sick leave, or national holidays (no mandatory US holiday schedule). Structured incentive plans including monthly and quarterly bonuses based on performance and brand priorities.
