Product Operations Lead

Athos Commerce enables ecommerce and digital marketing teams greater control over how their products are found, merchandised, and sold—on-site and across all digital marketing channels. Our tools span AI-powered search, personalized recommendations, smart merchandising, optimized product data syndication, A/B testing, and marketplace/social commerce performance.

We help brands grow with sharper visibility, higher conversion, and less friction. Backed by PSG Equity and supported by a global team across North America, Europe, and APAC, we are building a unified commerce platform that helps retailers deliver better shopping experiences.

We win when a merchandiser can do their job in our product faster than anywhere else. Our job is to know that person's problems, motivations, and limitations better than our competitors do, and to build against them.

You are an analytical, highly organized, and collaborative professional who thrives in building structure out of ambiguity. You enjoy solving complex problems, improving processes, and enabling teams to operate more effectively. You are equally comfortable working with data, developing scalable frameworks, and communicating with stakeholders across different functions and levels of leadership.

You are a proactive problem-solver who can balance strategic thinking with hands-on execution. You understand how to influence without direct authority, hold well-defined points of view, challenge teams to rethink their operating modelschallenge existing processes constructively, and bring cross-functional teams together around shared goals. You are adaptable, detail-oriented, and motivated by creating systems that help product teams make better decisions and deliver stronger business outcomes.

As our Product Operations Lead, reporting directly to the Chief Product Officer, you will play a critical role in building and scaling an outcome-oriented product organization. You will own and optimize the processes, analytics, tools, and communication frameworks that enable our Product Managers to focus on delivering exceptional customer experiences. Working closely with Product, Engineering, Sales, Customer Success, Marketing, and Support, you will improve how we plan, measure, communicate, and execute product initiatives. This is a hands-on opportunity to establish scalable operational foundations, improve product visibility, and drive greater alignment across our global organization. This is a build role. Much of what you will own does not exist yet in a durable form.
