Our Strategy team has three parts. Corporate Strategy shapes the long-term business bets we pursue. Strategy & Operations executes our go-to-market strategy and near-term growth opportunities. Business Planning runs annual planning, OKRs, and the allocation of resources against them.
As a Senior Manager, Strategy & Operations, you'll be the analytical horsepower behind our growth initiatives. You'll build market, competitive, and financial analyses and support strategic initiatives as they move from ideation into execution. We're looking for a driven generalist that thrives thinking about ambiguous problems and can help bring solutions to those problems to life.
What you will do:Strategic Analysis- Build the analyses behind near-term growth opportunities: market sizing, unit economics, pricing benchmarks, and channel economics
- Develop financial models, value driver analyses, and scenarios that pressure-test initiatives before we fund them
- Take an ambiguous question from leadership, structure it, and come back with the "so what" rather than the data
- Build an outside-in point of view on market opportunities and carry it through to a clear implication
- Prepare executive-ready materials that distill complex inputs into a recommendation
- Support quarterly business reviews and leadership sessions with the analysis that frames the decision at hand
Market & Competitive Diligence- Own our standing competitive watch across wearables, consumer health, and adjacent categories
- Publish a recurring competitive brief that closes with a recommendation, not a roundup
- Serve as the source of record on competitor pricing, packaging, product launches, and channel moves
- Conduct primary and secondary research across markets, customers, and competitors, including expert calls, survey and panel data, and public filings
- Feed structured market intelligence into Corporate Strategy's longer-horizon deep dives
Initiative Support & Cross-Functional Partnership- Partner with leads across GTM, Product, Finance, and Ops to move growth initiatives forward, providing the analysis and follow-through that keeps commitments on track
- Build the reporting that shows whether a launched initiative is working, and diagnose the gap when it isn't
- Replace manual, repetitive analysis with something durable, reaching for automation and AI-assisted workflows before reaching for more hours
- Manage ad hoc requests from leadership that require quick turnaround and a clear point of view
This is a hybrid US role with a strong preference for candidates based in the bay area.
RequirementsWe would love to have you on our team if you have:
- 8+ years in management consulting, investment banking, corporate strategy, or in-house strategy and operations, including at least one operating role at a company
- Financial analysis and modeling as a genuine strength. This is a must-have, not a nice-to-have
- Structured problem solving. You break big, messy problems into parts, work hypothesis-first, and don't get lost in the details
- Experience running market or competitive analysis and stating a calibrated view from incomplete public data
- Comfort with SQL and a BI tool, or the appetite to get there within a quarter
- Excellent written and verbal communication. You can distill complexity into clarity and write to a conclusion in a page
- Ability to work independently across multiple workstreams where the focus and topic shift often
- Track record of partnering with cross-functional teams to get a decision made rather than a deck delivered
- Comfortable in fast-paced, ambiguous environments where priorities shift
- Experience in consumer tech, subscription businesses, ecommerce, or digital health is a plus
