Bokksu is a trailblazing D2C brand delivering artisanal Japanese snacks to customers in over 100 countries around the world. Featured in CNN, WSJ, BuzzFeed, and Mashable, Bokksu partners directly with centuries-old family snackmakers in Japan to live out our mission of bridging people and sustaining culture through authentic food and media. Launched in April 2016, we are a fast-paced startup headquartered in New York City with a branch office in Tokyo. We’re a profitable startup that’s doubled in growth in the past year, and are 80% BIPOC, female, and/or LGBTQ+.
Our team is tight-knit, scrappy, and adaptable to many different roles. We move fast, take risks, and get things done. And, most importantly, we care deeply about each other and our customers.
Looking forward, Bokksu is seeking an all-star Senior Product Owner or Product Manager to operate within our core business as well as join as an early employee of a new and well-funded stealth business line to expand into ethnic grocery delivery. This role will have significant visibility with the organization, report directly into the executive team, and build out a team of product managers and engineers.
