About Samplize
Samplize is reinventing how people choose paint. Forget messy sample pots and tiny chips: Samplize delivers large peel-and-stick samples made with real manufacturer paint — Benjamin Moore, Sherwin-Williams, Farrow & Ball, and more — shipped overnight. Customers peel, stick them to any wall, move them around as the light changes through the day, and find the perfect color with zero mess and no wasted paint.
Samplize is the flagship consumer brand of Material Bank — the world's largest materials marketplace for the architecture and design industry, built into a $2B business and operating in 37 countries. Acquired as Material Bank's first move into the consumer space, Samplize is the launchpad for a new chapter of growth with homeowners and renovators. Now we're building the next generation of the experience: an app that lets anyone visualize real colors in their own room, in their own light — and instantly understand what a project will cost.
About the role
As our Lead/Principal Product Manager for the Samplize App, you will own a new consumer product end to end — from concept to a shipped, loved experience. Your first deliverable is the Samplize paint app: point your phone at a room and see real paint colors rendered onto your actual walls in your real lighting, then instantly understand what the job would cost.
The app has three goals, set with leadership: own the “see it in your room” experience — the best in the world at it; drive Samplize sample sales in both directions (buy samples then confirm in-app, or explore in-app then buy); and, over time, build the path that helps people act on their chosen color — finding a painter or buying the paint.
This is a senior individual contributor role for a founder-style product owner. You won't manage a team of PMs; you'll work hand-in-hand with engineers and designers to build a business. You set the vision, make the hard calls, and own the outcome. You move fast, ship in small increments, and are equally comfortable scoping a computer-vision problem with engineering, defining pricing logic, and presenting to leadership. The ideal candidate is based in New York, NY.
What You'll Do
- Own the product: Set vision, strategy, and roadmap for the app, validated against real customer behavior and our existing audience
- Own the “see it in your room” experience (Pillar 1): Lead the AI / computer-vision visualization — best-in-world color accuracy and lighting realism. The heart of the product, anchored on the loop “buy samples first, use the app to confirm you got it right”
- Drive sample sales (Pillar 1): Use the app to grow core Samplize sample sales in both directions — “samples → app” and “app → samples” — partnering with the GM and Material Bank leadership across the site, marketing, the App Store, and Google Play
- Build the path to action (Pillar 2): Own the cost-estimate engine and help users act on their chosen color — find a painter or buy the paint
- Turn research into product: Convert customer insight and data into a validated, differentiated experience
What You'll Bring
- 7+ years in product management, including shipping a 0-to-1 consumer mobile app that people actually use
- A self-starting, hands-on operator who drives outcomes independently — comfortable building without a large org or fully-baked requirements
- Experience owning technically hard products alongside ML, computer-vision, or AR engineering teams — you reason fluently about feasibility and tradeoffs
- Strong design and craft sensibility; you care deeply how things look and feel
- Data fluency — comfortable defining metrics, pricing logic, and instrumentation
- Based in (or relocating to) New York, NY
- Bonus: AR / camera / try-before-you-buy product experience; home & interiors; or e-commerce / DTC commerce
