Novellia is seeking a seasoned Head of Product to own and scale the product function as the company grows through Series B and beyond. The company operates at the intersection of healthcare and consumer, building products that feel less like medical tools and more like things people genuinely want to use.
You will report directly to the CTO and own product strategy, roadmap, team building, and execution end-to-end. You will sit on the leadership team and be a genuine voice in company direction. As you build the org, you will be hands-on: setting direction, making calls, and shipping. The team grows around you.
In your first 6–12 months, you will develop deep understanding of Novellia's users, market, and current product across healthcare and consumer surfaces. You will absorb and sharpen product strategy with the founding team, building on what exists and making it something the whole company rallies behind. You will define the product org structure needed to win, actively hiring and developing the team. You will evolve ways of working across product and design to ship with rigor and speed as the team grows. You will own and ship something meaningful—a bet from framing through delivery that moves a real outcome. You will become a trusted thought partner to the CTO, CEO, and Commercial team.
Key responsibilities include: defining and pressure-testing where Novellia wins across healthcare and consumer; translating strategy into a prioritized roadmap; making hard calls on what not to build; owning the full product development process from discovery through delivery; setting a high bar for product quality and design craft; partnering closely with Engineering; maintaining direct contact with users and customers; hiring, developing, and retaining a world-class product and design team; building a culture of rigor, craft, and accountability to outcomes; and developing the people around you.
The company has built something rare: a tight, trust-based collaboration between engineering and product where technical and product thinking happen together. You are walking into a strong engineering and data team that will move fast and execute hard on the right vision.
REQUIREMENTS:
- 8+ years in product, with meaningful time at early-stage or high-growth companies
- Deep consumer product experience; you know what it takes to make something people genuinely love and come back to. Healthcare experience is a strong plus but not required
- You have found product-market fit, not inherited it. You were in the room when it was still unclear, made bets, got some wrong, and eventually cracked it, and can tell that story with specificity
- Proven ability to grow and lead a product org, not just manage one at scale
- Experience owning product design as well as product management
- Track record hiring and developing strong product managers and designers in early-stage environments
- Strong design sensibility; you set a high bar and know the difference between good and great
- Direct, clear communicator who can operate at the executive level without losing the details
- High ownership mindset; you notice what needs to be done and do it without being asked
BONUS:
- Background shipping products in real-world evidence, health data, or biopharma-adjacent contexts
- Familiarity with health data standards and ecosystems: FHIR, CCDA, claims data, EHR/EMR integrations, or similar
- Experience in a data-as-product environment
