About the role:

As Head of Product, you’ll lead a transformation: moving TCG from a historically broad portfolio to a focused, AI-driven product ecosystem and improved unit economics.

This role blends strategy + execution across:

• 🧩 Portfolio & lifecycle (launch / scale / sunset)

• 🧠 AI-enhanced creation (editors that guide, suggest, and bundle)

• ⚙️ Product ops (automation in catalog, pricing, variants)

• 🤝 Cross-functional leadership (Design, Engineering, Data, Ops, Production, Marketing)

We’re primarily D2C today, with B2B growing fast — your decisions will increasingly shape both. You’ll work closely with founders and senior leadership and help define how the product org is set up and run.

What You Will Do:

🧭Product Strategy & Portfolio Ownership 

• Own the global product strategy and roadmap across categories, formats, and price tiers.

• Make decisions on what to launch, scale, bundle, or kill using profitability, emotional relevance, and strategic fit.

• Run lifecycle management: scale winners faster; retire low-ROI long-tail products systematically.

🚀 Innovation & Category Expansion

• Drive growth in core categories — especially wall décor (canvas, framed prints, posters), plus photo gifts and home & lifestyle.

• Expand “story-driven” products (photo books, cards, sets, bundles) as key growth levers.

• Leverage new capabilities from TCG's acquisitions to broaden offering while improving unit economics.

• Define packaging and upsell mechanics: bundles, sets, formats, and attach strategies.

✨ Product Experience & AI-Enhanced Creation

• Own the end-to-end product experience, with strong focus on personalization editors/configurators.

• Evolve editors into AI-guided creation (layouts, designs, copy, bundles — not just blank canvases).

• Partner with Design/Engineering/Data to lift conversion and customer confidence.

⚙️ Product Data, Automation & Ops

• Increase automation in catalog, pricing, variants, and lifecycle processes.

• Build scalable systems to launch/roll out winners across brands and markets.

• Track and optimize for AOV, margin, ROI, and complexity/cost-to-serve.

🧱 Leadership & Delivery

• Lead and grow a high-performing product team in a flat, action-first environment.

• Align stakeholders and drive execution through ambiguity with strong program leadership.

Preferred Background:

Experience

• 7+ years in product leadership (product strategy, portfolio, lifecycle) in D2C/e-commerce.

• Experience with physical product portfolios (photo/print/customization, gifts, décor, apparel, adjacent).

• Track record improving portfolio performance, reducing complexity, and scaling winners.

• Experience in founder-led / scale-up environments with real ownership.

Hard Skills

• Strong roadmap + prioritization + stakeholder alignment.

• Solid product UX fluency (especially editors / personalization journeys).

• Experience applying AI/automation to product creation or product ops (or strong intuition + proof of learning speed).

• Strong commercial sense: AOV, GM%, ROI, unit economics.

• Excellent program/project management across multiple teams.

Soft Skills

• Strategic but hands-on; decisive; comfortable making tough trade-offs. ⭐

• Clear communicator who simplifies complexity and drives alignment. 🤝

• Curious, systems-oriented builder mindset. 📈
