Our mission is to help people declutter their lives at scale.  Our product helps customers (1) effortlessly catalog & organize their stuff, (2) make simple sell/store/donate/ditch decisions, and (3) fulfill those desires on-demand with a few taps on their smart phone. 
 
OSOM is positioned to disrupt several markets including the WW $650 billion consumer to consumer (C2C) e-commerce and US $35 billion consumer storage industries.  In fact, $300m+ has been raised in C2C e-commerce since Sept 2016 and $100m+ has been raised in consumer storage since May 2017.  Bloomberg called storing your stuff the “Hottest Industry Right Now”.
 
We’ve begun tackling the challenges to own the stuff management market.  Scaling the opportunity requires innovative growth & intersection of consumer features and ops/logistics capabilities.
 
So, we’re looking for an exceptional Product leader to define and own the path forward.  You’ll act as the voice of the customer and interpret those views in context of market dynamics and business objectives to create a compelling vision.  You’ll collaborate with and lead design, engineering, marketing and operations via an agile/lean process to ultimately develop a transformative solution.
