About the role
Join Us in Building the Future of Human Performance
At Viction, we're not building another health app — we're building a new category of human performance technology.
Our mission is to empower people to better understand themselves and continuously improve every aspect of their health and performance through scientifically grounded insights, intelligent coaching, and beautifully designed technology.

We're seeking an experienced product leader who is energized by the opportunity to help define an entirely new category of human performance technology. This is a rare opportunity to shape not only a product, but the direction of a company.
