Resident Entrepreneur in Austin, Texas at Rugiet Health

About Rugiet Health

Rugiet is one of the fastest-growing direct-to-consumer telemedicine companies in the US, redefining men's health. We combine clinical rigor, bespoke compounded medications, and a premium digital patient experience to deliver personalized treatments that genuinely work. Our flagship men's health platform has built a loyal patient base that keeps coming back, and we are now expanding into sleep, longevity, and peptide-based therapeutics. We move fast, hold ourselves to a high standard, and care deeply about the patients we serve. If you want to build something that matters, Rugiet is the place to do it.

The Role
This is a rare opportunity to build something from the ground up inside a company that already has the infrastructure, capital, and clinical credibility to back you. As Entrepreneur-in-Residence for Women’s Health, you’ll lead the exploration, validation, and eventual launch of Rugiet’s women’s health brand. You’ll operate with significant autonomy, report directly to the CEO, and have a seat at the table from day one.

This is not a traditional corporate role. It’s for someone who thinks like a founder, operates like a GM, and is energized by the challenge of building a category from scratch.

What You’ll Do

• Lead market research and consumer discovery to define the women’s health opportunity most aligned with Rugiet’s core capabilities
• Develop and pressure-test the brand strategy, product roadmap, and go-to-market approach
• Work closely with Rugiet’s clinical, regulatory, and compounding teams to identify viable treatment categories
• Build financial models and business cases to guide investment decisions
• Source and manage external partners including creative agencies, medical advisors, and technology vendors
• Recruit and help assemble the founding team for the new brand
• Present findings, recommendations, and progress to executive leadership and the board
• Transition into a senior leadership role (e.g., GM or President) upon brand launch, pending mutual agreement

What We’re Looking For

• 8+ years of experience, including time at a high-growth startup, DTC brand, or consumer health company
• Demonstrated experience launching a product, brand, or business -- you’ve built something before
• Deep understanding of the women’s health landscape, including consumer behavior, clinical considerations, and regulatory environment
• Strong commercial instincts: you think about unit economics, CAC, LTV, and retention as naturally as you think about brand
• Exceptional communicator who can synthesize ambiguity into clear recommendations
• Scrappy, resourceful, and comfortable operating without a playbook
• Experience in telehealth, compounding pharmacy, or regulated health categories is a strong plus

Compensation

• Competitive Salary
• Performance bonus tied to launch milestones
• Meaningful equity participation
• Full benefits (Health, 401k, PTO)
