Vibit builds products that sit at the intersection of health and performance, designed to help people feel good in their bodies. Their compact, functional and affordable tools are designed to fit into real routines - supporting recovery and relief for tradies, office workers, students, parents and fitness enthusiasts alike.
Vibit has huge growth ambitions, and to get there requires a Product Development Manager who can build the roadmap, strengthen the engine, and remove founder dependency from day-to-day product execution. This is not a maintenance role. This is a scale role.
If you've led physical product in an ecommerce environment, understand Chinese manufacturing deeply, and know how to balance margin, compliance, and speed - keep reading.
The Mission
Build and launch profitable, LTV-focused, retail-ready products that aid the recovery & wellness of their customer base, as well as:
- Reducing product risk
- Strengthening compliance confidence (TGA/FDA)
- Improving supply chain resilience
- Building structured systems (not chaos)
What Success Looks Like (over 12-24 Months) - Deliver a commercially aligned product roadmap tied directly to the revenue growth plan
- Sequence launches and category expansion intentionally - not reactively
- Reduce COGS across core SKUs without compromising quality
- Implement a structured Quality Control system (supplier QC, incoming QC, pre-ship QC, defect tracking)
- Build real compliance frameworks across TGA and FDA categories
- Create supply chain redundancy across core revenue SKUs
- Implement structured forecasting and production planning (less airfreight, fewer stockouts, smarter inventory)
- Ensure every launch is retail-ready - margin profile, durability, documentation, packaging, positioning
- Travel to China to strengthen supplier relationships and unlock new product opportunities
What You Bring - Proven product leadership (physical goods at scale) within ecommerce
- Deep China and global supply chain experience
- Strong cost engineering and negotiation capability
- Experience designing and implementing QC/testing systems
- Solid understanding of manufacturing processes
- Regulatory awareness (TGA, FDA, devices and supplements)
- Strong project management discipline
- CAD/design fluency - you can interpret technical drawings and guide development
- Strong packaging and brand instincts
Leadership Traits - Extreme ownership
- High urgency and bias toward execution
- Structured, systems-oriented thinker
- Commercially sharp and margin-aware
- Decisive under ambiguity
This is one of the most important hires in the company.
You will directly influence: - Revenue growth
- Margin expansion
- Risk reduction
- Operational stability
- Founder leverage
You'll work closely with the CEO, travel internationally, and shape the next phase of Vibit's growth.
If you've built and scaled physical product before - and you're ready to do it again with real ownership - we'd love to talk.
