About Us

eJam is a consumer products brand incubator. We build, launch, and scale brands across direct-to-consumer e-commerce, Amazon, third-party marketplaces, and retail. Our current portfolio includes BugMD (pest control), Shameless Snacks (better-for-you candy), and HydroNova (wellness). We move fast, stay lean, and build products consumers love.

We're a small team where every person has real impact. There are no layers of bureaucracy between you and the work that matters. If you want to see how consumer products actually get built and shipped from concept through retail shelf this is the place to learn it.

The Role

We're looking for a Product Development Coordinator to be the operational backbone of our product pipeline. You'll be the person who keeps everything moving tracking projects, coordinating across teams, preparing leadership with the information they need, and making sure nothing falls through the cracks.

Let's be upfront: This is a coordination and execution role, not a strategy or product management role. You won't be deciding what products we build. You'll be the reason they actually get built on time. If you're someone who thrives on organization, follow-through, and keeping multiple plates spinning this is your seat.

You'll report directly to the CEO and work across all three brands from day one. That means real visibility into how a multi-brand CPG company operates sourcing, design, packaging, vendor management, compliance, marketplace strategy all of it.

What You'll Do Everyday:

Keep the Product Pipeline Moving

• Maintain our product pipeline in ClickUp Kanban boards, project lists, status updates, and timelines across all active products
• Track all active projects and make sure deliverables stay on schedule
• Surface blockers early, flag slippage before it becomes a fire, and keep cross-functional teams aligned
• Own the accuracy of project documentation if it's in the system, it's correct and current

Run the Weekly Product Meeting

• Prepare and maintain presentations for weekly product development meetings
• Make sure decision-makers have what they need to make calls not scrambling for data in the room
• Distribute meeting notes, action items, and follow-ups. Everyone knows what they owe and when.

Coordinate Vendors & RFQs

• Track RFQ processes: monitor quote status, organize vendor responses, maintain comparison documents
• Coordinate with the sourcing team on samples, pricing, and timelines
• Maintain vendor communication logs and track progress across SKUs
• Support compliance documentation and product testing requirements

Gather Research & Information

• Compile competitive research pricing, features, positioning, packaging
• Organize market data and findings so leadership can make product decisions faster
• Maintain organized files of benchmarks, specs, and reference materials

Be the Communication Hub

• Coordinate with designers on packaging and creative asset timelines
• Work with external partners and vendors to keep deliverables on track
• Follow up relentlessly you are the person who makes sure things get done
