Whether it’s at the airport, stadium, or throughout your everyday life, CLEAR unlocks the magic of frictionless experiences. While our travel business has redefined the airport experience, CLEAR1 is the new standard in identity, offering multi-layered verification wherever it matters most for businesses across the country. As the VP of Product, you will hold a foundational seat at the leadership table, directly shaping our trajectory.

You should be an expert at navigating the trade-offs between rapid commercial expansion, technical integrity, and operational excellence while maintaining an obsession with our customer journey and user experience.

What You’Ll Do

: Own the Product Trajectory: While working across CLEAR1 leadership, translate the business mission into a dominant market strategy and represent that strategy externally with enterprise customers, partners, and the market. Champion an Elite Product Unit: Lead and mentor a lean, high-performing team of Product Managers through a period of massive momentum. You will design the organizational framework that allows CLEAR1 to maintain a "small-team" bias for action, ensuring high-velocity execution as we expand our global footprint.

Translate complex customer and regulatory needs into scalable product decisions that strengthen CLEAR1’s position as the trusted identity layer. Drive Operational Excellence: Partner with Engineering to ensure CLEAR1 isn't just a great UI, but a reliable, compliant, and efficient engine that scales without proportional headcount growth. Champion Product Excellence: Define and elevate the standards for the broader product organization, raising the bar for customer obsession, rigorous measurement, and high-velocity innovation.

Master the "High-Wire" Trade-offs: Make the hard calls between aggressive commercial expansion, engineering health (technical debt/scalability), and long-term sustainability. How You’ll Measure Success: CLEAR1 portfolio adoption, retention, and revenue growth across enterprise customers. Expansion of strategic enterprise relationships and successful delivery of customer commitments.

Platform scalability, reliability, and readiness to support new markets and use cases. Clear, outcome-driven KPIs tied to customer value, operational efficiency, and product quality. Strength, engagement, and performance of the CLEAR1 product leadership team.

What You’re Great At: Bridging the Gap: 12+ years leading complex B2B or SaaS portfolios, with a track record of transitioning from "scrappy growth" to a predictable, enterprise-grade engine.
