Bengaluru, Karnataka, India Kenko AI Full time ₹ 9,00,000 - ₹ 12,00,000 per year
Kenko is an AI-powered CRM for fitness & wellness businesses. We serve fitness businesses including yoga studios, pilates centers, gyms, crossfit, and more, as well as wellness businesses including spas, saunas, massage, and modern wellness like cryotherapy, red-light therapy, chiropractors, and physical therapy.
Our mission is to power 10K fitness & wellness businesses in the US, helping them thrive in their local markets.
We deliver an integrated solution that brings together four core product categories:
AI Marketing Manager: Automates lead capture, omnichannel campaigns, and lifecycle messaging for member growth and retention.
Operations Management: Centralizes scheduling, memberships, billing, payroll, and reporting in a modular workflow.
Member Experience: Powers branded websites, apps, and self check-in for seamless digital journeys. The Role
  • Serve as a strategic and executional force for product velocity, design, and engineering alignment
  • Act as a stop-gap/pod leader for business-critical product pods that lack dedicated leads.
  • Own cross-functional product leadership across Product, Design, Engineering, GTM, and Ops
  • Drive hiring and team building across product, design, and engineering
  • Maintain founder-level ownership, balancing strategy and tactical player-coach execution.
Product Strategy & Vision
  • Drive product vision, roadmap, and market differentiation strategies aligned with company goals and market trends
  • Conduct market and competitor analysis to identify new product opportunities and whitespace
  • Define product positioning and robust prioritization frameworks (RICE, value vs. effort, etc.)
  • Own the 0-to-1 product building and product-led growth (PLG) strategy
Product Velocity & Operational Excellence
  • Set and track velocity metrics (e.g., sprint velocity, feature delivery rate, time-to-market, bugs per feature)
  • Eliminate bottlenecks in design, engineering, and product operations through process optimization and analytics
  • Build and maintain product dashboards, ops systems, and analytics infrastructure for data-driven decision-making
  • Establish quality, speed, and collaboration rituals across product pods
Engineering & Design Alignment
  • Establish tight alignment between design and engineering, ensuring smooth hand-offs, reduced rework, and consistent output quality
  • Lead design and engineering collaboration rituals, reviews, and continuous improvement on specs-to-shipping processes
  • Set and enforce standards for UI/UX quality, technical documentation, and architecture
Interim Pod Leadership & Team Building
  • Step in as interim pod lead to drive end-to-end roadmap, scoping, sprint planning, and feature delivery in pods lacking full-time leaders
  • Own hiring—create scorecards, source candidates, interview, and mentor product/design/engineering talent
  • Develop and institutionalize product team rituals, documentation, onboarding, and career frameworks
Cross-Functional Leadership
  • Act as DRI (Directly Responsible Individual) for product org interactions with sales, customer success, operations, and leadership
  • Ensure product roadmap decisions are clearly communicated, prioritized, and trade-offs explained to all stakeholders
  • Represent product interests in founder meetings and strategic reviews
VSaaS-Specific Leadership
  • Build for workflow dominance (not just features)—embed deeply into customer ops, with measurable retention impact
  • Develop deep vertical/domain expertise, ensuring high NRR, minimal churn, and industry-compliant product direction
  • Lead or oversee vertical integrations and partnerships essential to the vertical SaaS journey
Required Experience
  • 7–10+ years in product management/leadership in B2B SaaS (VSaaS strongly preferred)
  • Demonstrated 0-to-1 product building and/or scaling experience, ideally in a player-coach or founder's office context
  • Proven expertise driving design–engineering alignment, owning output quality, and unblocking delivery teams
  • Experience owning cross-functional rituals, product ops systems, and velocity/quality improvement projects
  • Track record of hiring and building teams in Product, Design, and Engineering
  • Domain expertise in your vertical, or demonstrated ability to quickly develop it
Why Join Us?
  • Direct influence on strategy, product, and culture in a high-trust, low-bureaucracy Founder's Office environment
  • Rare chance to shape product, own velocity, build the team, and directly impact NRR and retention
  • Competitive compensation + significant ESOPs (benchmarked for senior Founder's Office/product leadership roles)
  • Opportunity to pioneer vertical SaaS in India's fastest-growing sector
