Responsibilities

• Research New Product Opportunities
• Use tools like Helium 10, Jungle Scout, and similar platforms to identify high-potential SKUs and category opportunities across Amazon, DTC, and retail
• Conduct competitive research — pricing, features, positioning, packaging, reviews, and gaps in the market
• Compile category analyses and present findings to leadership with clear recommendations
• Maintain organized files of benchmarks, specs, market data, and reference materials
• Own the product pipeline in ClickUp — Kanban boards, project lists, status updates, and timelines across all active SKUs
• Track all active development projects and keep deliverables on schedule
• Surface blockers early, flag slippage before it becomes a fire, and keep cross-functional teams aligned
• Own the accuracy of project documentation — if it's in the system, it's correct and current
• Communicate directly with manufacturers in China on pricing, samples, specs, timelines, and production issues

Requirements

• You have 2-4 years of experience in product development, sourcing, or product coordination in consumer products, CPG, eCommerce, or DTC
• You've worked with overseas manufacturers — ideally in China — and understand the sourcing and production workflow
• You're experienced with Amazon product research tools (Helium 10, Jungle Scout, or similar)
• You've used project management tools daily — ClickUp, Asana, Monday.com, or similar
• You communicate clearly in writing and in person — no one has to chase you for updates
• You've coordinated across multiple teams or departments (sourcing, design, marketing, external vendors)
• You have high attention to detail — a messy project board or an incorrect spec keeps you up at night
• You're comfortable presenting to leadership and holding the room accountable on timelines

Preferred

• Mandarin (Chinese) fluency
• Experience with packaging development — dielines, print specs, materials, and vendor coordination
• Familiarity with compliance or regulatory documentation (FDA, FTC, EPA, etc.)
• Knowledge of PIM systems or product information management
• Previous experience at a brand incubator, Amazon aggregator, or multi-brand portfolio company
• Experience with retail buyer requirements and retail-ready packaging
