• You should be equally comfortable thinking at a systems level and getting hands-on, whether that’s pressure-testing a concept, prototyping a flow, or working closely with engineering to translate constraints into thoughtful product decisions
• Please note that this role will require you to be comfortable with working in-person at our NYC office at least 3.5 days/week on average
• Own the vision, strategy, and roadmap for a Coast product
