Project Manager Product Commercialization: Snif
Snif New York, NY Start Date10/27/2026
Full-Time
Snif is hiring a full-time Project Manager Product Commercialization for a remote role connected to its New York City team. The position manages beauty and fragrance launches from kickoff through first production, with direct reporting to the VP of Product. The work covers development milestones, stage gates, vendor timelines, testing, retailer submissions, and launch retrospectives. Snif does not state a salary or application deadline for this opening.
The role is built for a project manager or product-operations professional with 4 to 7 years of experience, ideally in beauty, fragrance, or consumer packaged goods. Snif develops fine-fragrance products and sells through its direct-to-consumer business, with selected products available through Ulta Beauty and Amazon. The company describes the position as remote, with travel of about 10 percent depending on business needs. Scented-product experience is useful, but the core work is cross-functional commercialization.
- Employer: Snif
- Location: New York, New York, with remote work
- Employment type: Full-time
- Reporting line: VP of Product
- Experience: 4 to 7 years in commercialization, project management, or product operations
- Travel: About 10 percent, depending on business needs
Applicants should have examples of launches managed against fixed retail dates, vendor timelines, and cross-functional decisions. The application should present experience with beauty, fragrance, home scent, or another consumer product category where testing, manufacturing, and delivery dates must stay aligned.
Snif's direct application page contains the current role details and application process. The position does not state a closing date, so the hiring team controls availability as applications are reviewed.
Launch Milestones And Production Gates
The project manager owns the path from kickoff through first production. The work includes development milestones, stage gates, critical paths, contingency plans, and weekly commercialization meetings. Product Development, Operations, Retail, Brand, and Creative teams take part in the coordination.
Launch control continues through vendor and manufacturing decisions. The role tracks tooling, lead times, minimum order quantities, capacity, required testing, and retailer submissions. A project manager also removes blockers and escalates risks with a recommended response rather than waiting for a missed milestone.

- Stage gates and contingency planning
- Vendor timelines, tooling, lead times, and minimum order quantities
- Testing and retailer-submission schedules
Beauty And Fragrance Commercialization
Snif works in fine fragrance and sells products through direct-to-consumer channels, with selected distribution through Ulta Beauty and Amazon. Commercialization work therefore connects product decisions with vendor readiness, retail timing, product testing, and customer-facing launch requirements.
The role asks for familiarity with beauty or home-scent development cycles and the ability to manage concurrent launches. Experience in another consumer packaged goods setting can translate when it includes fixed launch dates, supplier coordination, product operations, and decisions that cross technical and commercial teams. The company's product work sits alongside related product development manager and technical regulatory director functions elsewhere in the beauty industry.
Tools, Vendors And Cross-Functional Decisions
Daily work includes project-management tools, PLM or ERP systems, advanced Excel, and Google Suite. The project manager keeps timelines current, prepares teams for weekly decisions, and records the actions needed to move a launch through its next gate.
Vendor management is a central part of the role. The hire negotiates timelines, follows manufacturing capacity, coordinates testing, and works with partners when a lead time or specification threatens the launch date. Clear communication matters because Product Development, Operations, Retail, Brand, Creative, and external suppliers may hold different pieces of the same release.
Snif's Remote Team And Benefits
Snif's team is based in New York City, while this position is remote. Business needs may require about 10 percent travel. The role reports to the VP of Product and supports the company's effort to scale its fine-fragrance business.
- salary and equity
- medical
- dental and vision insurance
- 401(k) matching

Experienced candidates can also bring operational knowledge from product launches, retail commercialization, vendor management, or fragrance development. A portfolio of launch timelines, examples of resolved risks, and records of cross-functional delivery can clarify the scope of that experience without replacing the role's stated qualifications.
