The Opportunity
As Vice President of Product, you will help shape the future of Bucket Listers' product ecosystem, translating bold ideas into scalable products that enhance how millions of people discover, book, and experience unforgettable events.
This role goes far beyond owning a product roadmap. You will define the strategic direction of our platform, partnering closely with Engineering, Marketing, Operations, Business Intelligence, and executive leadership to identify opportunities, prioritize investments, and bring innovative solutions to market. You will balance long-term vision with disciplined execution, ensuring our products evolve alongside the needs of our customers, partners, and rapidly growing business.
We're looking for a leader who sees product as a competitive advantage. You'll challenge assumptions, uncover new opportunities, and build the frameworks that allow teams to move quickly, make smarter decisions, and execute with confidence.
We're a remote-first company and open on location, though we'd especially welcome candidates in the greater New York City area who are excited to connect in person and collaborate with leadership live.
The base salary range for this role is $210,000-$240,000. Our ranges are set using competitive market data for companies of our size, stage, and industry. Where a candidate lands within the range depends on their experience and location.
