Technical Product Leader

At BioBuzz, we’re building the next-generation talent marketplace for the life sciences — a platform where companies can instantly connect with the specialized consultants, freelancers, and fractional leaders they need to grow. What started as a grassroots community and media brand has evolved into a trusted hub with paying customers, national visibility, and a live product already generating revenue.

This isn’t just another job board — it’s a category-defining solution at the intersection of talent, hiring, innovation ecosystems and the $2 trillion bioeconomy. We’re not building in theory — we’re building in market, with momentum, traction, and a big vision ahead.

This is your chance to join an experienced founding team at a pivotal inflection point: the transition from scrappy startup-phased company to scalable growth company. You’ll have real ownership, a seat at the table, and the opportunity to shape a product that’s transforming how the life sciences industry works and grows.

BioBuzz was the 2024 MD New Venture Accelerator Pitch Competition co-winner and a 2025 Baltimore Crab Tank Finalist! Watch our Crab Tank video to learn more from our CEO: https://vimeo.com/1000454750

What You’ll Do

• Own the roadmap & stack — guide product strategy, architecture, and build-vs-buy decisions
• Audit & improve — review our current codebase, set quality/scalability baselines, and implement improvements.
• Ship & scale — roll up your sleeves to write code, integrate tools, and move the product forward.
• Partner with founders — ensure our product is investor-ready and our technical strategy sound.
• Build for today & tomorrow — hit critical early milestones while laying the foundation for long-term growth.

Why This Role Matters

We’ve validated the market, secured paying customers, and built a strong foundation of users under a recognized brand that is known throughout the industry.

• Salary Post-Seed — Competitive startup-level comp ($100K–$120K to start, scaling with the company).
• Impact — Join at the moment when your work directly defines the product, user experience, and trajectory of the business and deliver a product that helps companies to commercialize life-saving medicines and technologies. Your work will impact millions.
