Job Description

The Role

Gaia is the first Value-Based family-building company. “We give people control over their fertility with clinically proven pathways and take on the financial risk: if we don’t deliver a successful outcome, they don’t pay. Gaia was born from our founder’s own harrowing journey through assisted fertility, and his resolve to build the experience he wished he had.

Our mission is to give the best shot at parenthood to anyone who wants a family, with access to a network of clinics selected for their results, flexible payment options, and 90+ NPS wraparound care and support. 

We’re looking for a seasoned, visionary Product leader who thrives on complexity. Someone who has built and scaled product functions, and sees the dysfunction in healthcare and insurance not as barriers, but as an invitation to build something better. If you’re the kind of leader who is looking for the opportunity to be at the epicenter of transforming the future of fertility care, we’d love to have you on this journey.

We’re looking for someone who can:

  • Define and own Gaia’s long-term product strategy and roadmap, grounded in user insight and business priorities

  • Build systems, not just features, that create a seamless and supportive experience across care, cost, and communication

  • Coach and scale a high-performing product team, raising the bar for craft, urgency, and ownership

  • Navigate complexity and make tough trade-offs that drive clarity and momentum

  • Influence across the company, partnering with growth, clinical, engineering, and operations to ship meaningful work at pace

  • Create structure where there is none, and drive execution in a fast-moving environment

You might be a fit if you:

  • Have built and scaled a product function, or owned a complex product area in a scaled company

  • Have led 0 to 1 product development and helped scale from 1 to N

  • Are a systems thinker who thrives in ambiguity and finds opportunity in constraints

  • Know how to push back thoughtfully, make strategic trade-offs, and align cross-functional teams around bold bets

  • Are a strong communicator who can distill complexity into clarity and rally teams around a shared vision

  • Have experience in healthtech, fintech, or another regulated, emotionally charged space

  • Care deeply about mission, but aren’t afraid to challenge assumptions and ask hard questions

Who will thrive?

  • Brave decision-makers: You make bold bets, challenge the status quo, and aren’t afraid to take risks

  • Builders: You love creating from scratch and thrive in ambiguity

  • Leaders: You inspire, you push forward, and you bring people along for the ride

  • Adaptable thinkers: You thrive off change and aren’t married to process & you care about outcomes

Who this isn’t right for

If you need a playbook, like to color inside the lines, or struggle to defend your ideas and opinions, this won’t be the right fitWhy this role is different

This isn’t about incremental change, it’s about reinventing how fertility care is accessed and paid for

You’ll have:

  • A blank slate to create something that doesn’t exist yet

  • A seat at the table to shape the strategy and direction of Gaia, reporting to the CEO

  • A mission that matters. your work will directly impact people’s ability to start a family

  • A team of brilliant, mission-driven people who are fixated on solving this issue
