About the role

Market Gap Hunter: You see empty spaces where others see crowded shelves. You’re the kind of person who reads a clinical study on a Monday night and wakes up Tuesday with three new product ideas. If you've taken a concept from “what if…” to “in market,” and loved every chaotic step in between, then this could be the opportunity of a lifetime.

Small Print ⇒ If you don’t know how to spot gaps in the market, if your product launch plan is basically “post it and pray,” or if clinical research makes you eyes glaze over, this isn’t your gig. We’re looking for a Product Manager who blends business acumen, scientific curiosity, and scrappy execution skills into million dollar product launches.

This job will give you ALL the feels:

At AlgaeCal, we’re driven by a single idea. To end the fear of bone loss. In the United States, an estimated 54 million people have low bone density.

The good news? AlgaeCal has the world’s only clinically-supported natural solution to this problem. We give hope to everyone worried about bone loss. If that excites you, you’ll find no better place to continue your career than at AlgaeCal.

This job might be for you if you’re a…

  • Trend detective. You know how to sniff out trends, dissect competitors, and uncover unmet customer needs. Your resume demonstrates you know how to  translate those findings into million-dollar opportunities that launch on time and on target.
  • Science-to-strategy translator. Clinical studies don’t scare you. They thrill you. You’ve pored over ingredient research, separated real science from fluff, and turned dense data into crisp strategies that win over senior leadership. You know how to make a 40-page clinical trial sound like a TED Talk—and back it up with a product roadmap that actually delivers.
  • Customer whisperer. You don’t just collect feedback. You mine it like gold. You’ve run interviews, combed through support tickets, and analyzed community chatter to understand what customers really want (and what they don’t). Then you’ve turned those insights into tangible product refinements that improve satisfaction, retention, and conversion rates.
  • Amazing team player. You’ve already proven you can get Sales, Ops, Marketing, and Product dancing in step. You know how to translate “what customers want” into “what devs need,” and then into “what marketing can sell.” Chaos doesn’t rattle you. You thrive on aligning moving parts into one clean launch plan.
  • Walking vendor radar. You’ve been in the trenches of vendor calls, formulation sessions, and quoting negotiations. You can sniff out which partners are worth building with—and which ones will be headaches down the road. You’ve kicked off product formulations, pushed projects through bottlenecks, and built partnerships that speed up—not slow down—innovation.
  • Roadmap architect. You’ve drawn up product roadmaps that don’t just sit in slides, they come to life. You’ve performed gap analyses on GTM strategies, spotted weak links between departments, and proposed sharper, smarter processes that get buy-in across the board. Your big ideas don’t float. They land.
  • Numbers whisperer. Conversion funnels, LTV, messy spreadsheets—you’ve seen it all, and you’ve proven you can find the story in the chaos. You don’t just report metrics; you connect them to decisions that improve business performance and customer outcomes.
  • Battle-tested veteran. With 2–5 years of full-time Product Management experience, you’ve got the track record (and scars) to prove you can shape product direction and execution based on real customer needs. You’ve already been in the arena, and you know how to win.
  • Clever clogs. You’ve got the degree (business, marketing, or science-related) that lets you bridge the gap between dense research and commercial opportunity. Whether it’s parsing data or pitching a concept, you’ve got the foundation to stand tall in both worlds.
  • Scrappy hustler. When the plan breaks, the vendor flakes, or the data looks messy—you don’t panic. You roll up your sleeves, find a workaround, and push through. You’ve already proven you can thrive when things don’t go as planned, and that grit is your secret weapon.

Now, time to be honest: is this really you? If you’re nodding your head and feeling that flutter of excitement, then we can’t wait to meet you.

Other Qualities You’ll Need

At AlgaeCal we’re going to insist that you have these 3 qualities:

  • You’re humble--you put the team and others’ needs ahead of your own
  • You’re hungry to learn more
  • You’re people smart--in the sense that you’re a great teammate

The truth is, if you don’t have these qualities you won’t last long at AlgaeCal. So if you’re missing one of them, be honest. Save yourself a lot of headaches and skip to a job posting that is a better fit for you.

What Will You Earn?

We believe in rewarding top talent. So let’s talk about salary once we’ve had the chance to get to know you better. Rest assured, we’re generous and offer above-market pay for the right person. If you bring the skills and experience, we’ll make sure the compensation reflects that.

You’ll also enjoy the following benefits:

  • A generous healthcare package
  • Monthly team events and activities
  • Flexible Stat Holidays with the option to bank days for later use
  • Weekly team lunches
  • Casual dress code
  • Incredible dog friendly, Yaletown office one block from SkyTrain

And above all, you’ll join a team that you’ll never want to leave. Culture is everything to us. Yes, we work extremely hard to change as many people’s lives as possible. But we know how to have fun and reward ourselves too.

About AlgaeCal

Personal Care Services
51-200

AlgaeCal has pioneered the multi-nutrient approach to bone health, has supported its effectiveness with clinical studies, and guarantees stronger bones as measured by DEXA, making us the leader in natural bone health.

We are firm believers in the power of nature and the veracity of good science. AlgaeCal Inc. is proud to be the first company to popularize a plant as a calcium source in a world of limestone calcium supplements.

We have learned this full spectrum of plant minerals outperforms traditional calcium through independent clinical trials. As pioneers introducing vitamin K2, significant levels of D3, and strontium, we have forged a path for others to follow.

More recently, AlgaeCal has developed the world’s best bone supporting anti-inflammatory product, Triple Power Omega 3 Fish Oil. Inflammation is a primary cause of bone loss so it needs to be addressed head-on with the 3 leading anti-inflammatory nutrients.

But perhaps what sets AlgaeCal apart from the crowd most is guaranteeing your result. No doctor or supplement company we know of has the confidence in their approach to bone loss to do this.

We’re a different kind of company.

Let us serve you.
