Supply Chain & Quality Management

  • Manage relationships with contract manufacturers, co-packers, flavor houses, and testing labs (e.g., for PFAS, microplastics, heavy metals).
  • Oversee production runs, packaging specifications (stick packs, bottles, cartons), and MOQs.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Partner with marketing, design, and operations teams to align product development with business goals.
  • Provide scientific insights and technical support across internal and external stakeholders.
  • Business Strategy & Insights

  • Leverage consumer insights, market data, and UX research to shape product roadmaps.
  • Monitor performance, identify optimization opportunities, and enhance product efficacy and retention.
  • Contribute to long-term innovation and brand growth strategies.
  • Why Join
