Introduction:

10Beauty is seeking our founding Product Manager -  the first dedicated product leader in the company—to own the end-to-end product lifecycle. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role requiring strategic vision, technical fluency, and a passion for customer experience. You will be the internal voice of the customer and the external voice of the product, directly impacting our market success and growth.

We are looking for someone who is technically strong, a great culture fit and has demonstrated an ability to successfully operate in a fast-paced (at times chaotic) start-up environment. If you feel that you could be a great fit, we would love to speak with you. 

What You'll Do:

  • You will come in as the first product role in our 50 person technology org
  • Own the product roadmap, vision, and strategy for all related software, services, and future innovations
  • Work directly with the engineering (embedded, computer vision, mechanical) and operations teams to define requirements, prioritize features, and manage the product backlog to improve our delivery to market 
  • Serve as the chief advocate for the user. Conduct market research, competitive analysis, and customer interviews (both retail partners and end-users) to deeply understand needs, pain points, and opportunities for automation
  • Establish and monitor key performance indicators (KPIs) for product success, including machine uptime, usage rates, customer satisfaction (CSAT), and feature adoption
  • Act as the central communication hub, ensuring alignment between engineering, operations, executive leadership, and retail partners

What You Have:

  • 5+ years of experience as a Product Manager, preferably in a startup or rapid-growth environment
  • Proven experience as a Product Manager working on a hardware product  (Robotics a huge plus) with advanced software integration. You must be comfortable engaging deeply with embedded and mechanical engineers
  • The ability to move seamlessly between defining a long-term, multi-year product strategy, while also managing the details of a two-week sprint
  • Data driven approach to solutioning 
  • Experience with a modern software development methodology (e.g., Agile, Scrum)

At 10Beauty, we consider a wide-range of factors when determining compensation, based on individual qualifications, skills, and experience. Equity and benefits are included for all full-time employees. If you believe you can contribute to our team, we invite you to apply. We appreciate diversity and welcome those who can bring fresh perspectives and skills to our team.

We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at our company.  We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.  

Thank you for considering 10Beauty!

10Beauty is building the definitive Intelligent Beauty company, leveraging robotics and automation to reimagine how people can interact with machines on a service level. We have pre-sold over $13M in ARR for our first product, a full manicure machine, and are looking to hire the team necessary to help us finish the product and launch it to the world in 2024.  As a startup building a revolutionary new product, we are attempting to meet extremely challenging goals. Each individual we hire is expected to make a significant contribution to the company’s mission. We value those who work hard and fast in order to be successful. Our diverse 40+ person and growing team is built around people with a consistently demonstrated track record of introducing successful new-to-the-world products. We celebrate individuality within our company and know that our diversity is a strength. Equity creates opportunity. Inclusion helps people achieve their full potential. We believe in dismantling systemic barriers that marginalize so many and that we have an obligation to use our influence to help. We are committed to attracting employees that reflect the diversity of our customers – and to making sure every employee feels they belong. We believe that diversity of viewpoint is the key strength of teams, and that diversity of viewpoint comes from diversity of background. This is not just an ambition. Our existing team today reflects this very goal. The founders achieved a highly successful exit from their previous startup and have raised funding from Lerer Hippeau, Red Sea Ventures, and Imaginary - the investors behind great consumer companies such as Nest, Warby Parker, Casper, and Allbirds - to build 10Beauty. We have created one of the best teams and cultures you will have experienced in your careers. We believe that talented people working as one team with a clear direction and the autonomy to find the best solution can accomplish anything.
