Flagship Pioneering, Inc. - Head of Product

• A demonstrated record of building and scaling consumer products from early promise to sustained adoption, with measurable improvements in retention, user value, and business performance. Experience with consumer subscriptions, messaging, or other products built around repeat use is especially relevant. • Strong product judgment and taste, including the ability to identify important user problems, create simple and compelling experiences, and make sound decisions with incomplete information. Attention to language and interaction design is essential. • Experience leading teams and developing strong leaders, with the credibility and technical fluency to manage engineering and AI research directly. Ability to assess talent, coach technical leaders, resolve competing priorities, and hold teams accountable. Prior responsibility for engineering or research organizations is especially valuable. • Practical experience shipping AI products and a strong understanding of probabilistic behavior, evaluation, memory, personalization, and model limitations. Ability to question technical assumptions, distinguish a promising demonstration from a dependable product, and judge when further research is warranted. • Analytical depth across funnels, cohort retention, experimentation, pricing, and unit economics. Ability to combine quantitative evidence with user research, distinguish causation from correlation, and change direction when the evidence calls for it. • Executive ownership combined with a willingness to do the work: write a brief, inspect the data, challenge a prototype, manage resources, and unblock a launch. Ability to move between long-term strategy and detailed execution. • Excellent written communication, presentation, and collaboration skills. Ability to build productive relationships across design, engineering, research, growth, operations, and company leadership, and explain complex tradeoffs clearly. • Self-motivated and comfortable working in an ambiguous, fast-moving environment with evolving goals. Ability to think independently, make difficult prioritization decisions, and create focus without unnecessary process. Experience in an early-stage company is especially valuable. • A strong interest in psychology, behavior change, and helping people act with greater agency. Sound judgment in products people trust with sensitive information, and a clear understanding of the difference between meaningful user benefit and engagement that does not serve the user. Experience in wellbeing, coaching, or other high-trust consumer products is a plus. • Flagship Pioneering is a bioplatform innovation company that invents and builds platform companies, each with the potential for multiple products that transform human health or sustainability.
