Principal Product Manager
Wellth
Product management director job in Santa Monica, CA
Wellth is a fast-growing, growth-stage digital health company headquartered in Los Angeles. Our mission is to motivate people living with chronic conditions to make healthier choices, every single day.
We use behavioral economics, habit science and AI to motivate lasting behavior change in some of the highest need and most underserved populations in the US (Medicare and Medicaid), drastically changing their quality of life and health outcomes. We have demonstrated results with many large insurers and health systems (e.g. reducing hospitalizations by over 40%), and are now rapidly scaling. Early in 2025 we completed a Series C with experienced healthcare investors including Mercato and SignalFire. Our goal is to be the category leader in improving health outcomes for hard-to-engage populations. A key difference at Wellth compared to other digital health companies is that our users (Members) actually use Wellth every single day - think TikTok-tier daily engagement (and data generation!).
But most importantly, our work quite literally saves lives by stabilizing chronic disease patients and preventing disease progression, hospitalization, and other bad outcomes. We are a mission-driven company where you work with incredible talent and see tangible differences directly from your impact and influence.
Visit us here for more information.
About the Role:
As Principal ProductManager at Wellth, you will be contributing directly and visibly to our behavior change product by owning the vision and evolution of our user acquisition and enrollment platforms. You will interface directly with several internal stakeholder groups, including acquisition (consumer) marketing, enterprise marketing, data engineering, software engineering, and support. Our platforms, tools and workflows are evolving rapidly with our scale, and we are in the early innings of incubating significant changes using the newest AI models for SMS, voice and other interactions. You will do quantitative analysis to spot issues and opportunities and back your research with qualitative user research. Improving our enrollment rates and user retention while reducing unit economics will be your primary goal. Retention will be a primary goal, and you will add depth to our product journey and explore new use cases. You will be highly organized and detail-oriented. You aren't afraid of creating a spreadsheet model, or building a complex workflow in Figma or Lucidchart, or trying something manually that could eventually scale to hundreds of thousands of users.
This is a demanding, energetic role for individuals who love to do discovery, can't stop asking questions, love talking to their colleagues about new ways to try things, dive into data, understand architecture, love to do research, follow up and organize what happens next. Our product roles don't passively gather requirements, they don't just manage a nice and neat roadmap forward, and they don't sit quietly and exclusively review data. But if you want to establish and hold influence across a quickly growing company, solve real problems that matter in healthcare, get technical with engineers, creative with marketers and designers, strategic with customers, and be part of a very different approach to motivating healthy behaviors, this might be the role for you.
What You'll Do:
Develop an in-depth understanding of our current acquisition marketing workflows and how the platform needs to evolve to support new workflows, new channels, and the use of AI
Ensure that marketing activities create quality data and that this data flows to the appropriate infrastructure
Create intuitive, accurate reporting and dashboarding that provides visibility to marketing performance and helps spot new opportunities
Track A/B tests and identify results that should be fully implemented.
Connect the dots between key platforms like Customer.IO, Salesforce, and in-house AI tools
Identify opportunities to replace rules with data-driven models, and with manual work with automation
Analyze support workflows across SMS, voice, and in-app chat and identify streamlining opportunities
Build a vision for internal support platform and own completion of design, development and maintenance
Help drive improvements to our AI chatbot, ensuring a high-quality and personalized experience for users
Collaborate with member support and acquisition teams to solve product problems, gather insights and translate them into actionable product solutions
Front line for questions or issues with acquisition and support platform operations
Ensure product changes are well communicated, documented and set up for success
What We're Looking For:
5+ years experience as a productmanager with experience in marketing and/or support workflows and tools
Strong data analysis skills and ability to make decisions based on quantitative and qualitative research
Ideally experience launching A/B tests and product experiments
Excellent collaboration and communication skills to work effectively across teams
Highly organized, detail-oriented and structured in approach to problem-solving
Goal oriented - launching a feature isn't the goal, it's driving results
Enthusiasm about organizing and building out user journey content
High detail orientation - you love to capture ideas, action items, and make sure things get done whether you do them or you collaborate with others
Relentlessly considers ways to make things better in ways that truly matter - does not spend time optimizing on little things out on the margins
Constantly evangelizes what you are working on, why, what it means for different audiences, and how it connects to our mission
Platform mentality - how do we build
products
that scale, not services
This is a hybrid role based in our Marina del Rey office, with an expectation of being onsite 3 days per week.
Preferred Qualifications:

The Arena Club Standard
Life at Arena Club isn't for the faint of heart - and that's by design. We're building products and experiences the collectibles world has never seen. This is a proving ground. It demands your best every single day, because anything less means you're falling behind.
From day one, you're in the game. Trusted to deliver, expected to own outcomes, and driven to raise the bar higher than you thought possible. We don't just execute - we innovate, compete, and win together.
If you want routine or predictability, you won't find it here. But if you're ambitious, relentless, and hungry to prove yourself on a team built to dominate - step into the arena. You'll discover growth and reward here, unlike anywhere else.
