About the Role Every consumer experience Mindbody ships is built on top of our consumer platform. The platform is the shared foundation that lets our front-end squads deliver reliable, consistent wellness experiences without rebuilding the plumbing every time. This role exists to answer a deceptively simple question: what does the consumer platform need to become so that front-end squads can move fast on solid ground — and how do we get there from a legacy monolith without breaking the surfaces that depend on it today? This is a senior individual-contributor role for a product leader who is equally comfortable in two rooms: designing API contracts and service boundaries with a senior backend engineering team, and making the cross-surface platform calls that keep multiple consumer squads pulling in the same direction. You'll own the consumer platform roadmap, partner closely with engineering and your downstream partner squads, and be measured on how much faster and more reliably the rest of consumer can build because of the foundation you've shaped. What you'll do Own the consumer platform strategy and roadmap. Define the capabilities the platform must provide so consumer s
