VP of Product, LTSE Software

About:

LTSE supports companies in all stages of growth committed to long-term value creation, and the investors who share their values. We offer software and services for company-building and pursuing a path to the public markets, a U.S. national securities exchange for new and existing public companies, and a coalition for the exchange of ideas between companies and like-minded investors.

We believe in the power of a public market that supports continuous success for all stakeholders, including employees, investors, and their communities. We’re helping innovation and value creation flourish for now, and far into the future through long-term investment, experimentation, and sustainable scaling.

LTSE Equity is the first equity management solution that also supports building better and more equitable company foundations. Our customers also benefit from Private Market Solutions which includes investor relations software, and help with fundraising and secondary transactions. While the most mature LTSE Equity customers eventually graduate to be listed on our U.S. national securities exchange, by supporting startups at all stages we aim to foster the overall startup ecosystem.

Lead LTSE investors include Founders Fund, Collaborative Fund, Andreessen Horowitz, Obvious Ventures, Uprising, and Initialized. LTSE was founded by Eric Ries, an entrepreneur, New York Times-bestselling author, and the creator of the Lean Startup methodology.

The role:

The Vice President of Product will partner with the LTSE Software leadership team (CEO, Head of Marketing, Directors of Sales, Success and Engineering) to lead product line expansion, increase market penetration and cross-selling of our solutions while also ensuring that our platform can keep pace with the fastest growing startups we serve. You will also be responsible for driving our product strategy, which currently depends on being the simplest, most interoperable (see Open Cap Table Coalition), and transparent platform in the market. You will also help us prove the opportunity behind standardizing startup data, and being the first partner-oriented vendor in the ecosystem.

Your performance will be measured by:

• NPS (Net Promoter Score).
• Number and velocity of new product and growth experiments.
• Product strategy and roadmap evolution that leads to new business line opportunities.
• ACV potential of customer-validated additions to our roadmap.

You will be responsible for:

• Refinement and coordinated execution of product expansion strategy, informed by the competitive landscape, customer learnings, and analysis.
• Owning product exploration and growth experiments, with the intent of improving our ACV while simultaneously improving customer engagement.
• Ongoing improvements to the breadth and depth of our product offering, including pricing and packaging.
• Defining and directly managing execution of our mission-specific product roadmap (from ESG tooling, to industry partnerships that help us promote more equitable outcomes).
• Owning and managing Product Council.
• Collaborating with sales and marketing to continuously hone our product pitch.
• Defining and owning our data and API strategy.
• Supporting our broader startup community leadership role.
• Hiring for product roles, and managing the product team.

You would be a great fit if you:

• Are a startup founder. You love to build teams and products. You can think strategically, and also dive into the details to get things done.
• Have previously built or brought to market B2B SaaS products, and owned business KPIs.
• Care about empowering entrepreneurs, and have an ability to engage and develop credibility in the startup ecosystem.
• Are great at communicating with customers and partners.
• Have a love for using data to back up an argument.
• Have managed product (PM, design, growth, and marketing) functions.

Benefits include:

• People. Work in a mission-based company with skilled, committed, and supportive teammates who share your desire to create a new kind of public market, and have a commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
• Excellent medical, dental and vision benefits.
• A commitment to a sustainable work environment, including an unlimited vacation policy that requires team members take a minimum of three weeks vacation per year.
• 401k.
• Cell phone reimbursement.
• Computer and home office setup.
• Competitive and flexible early startup compensation package range: $240k - $260k base + equity, depending on experience.
