Location: Remote (minimum 4-hour overlap with JST, Monday to Friday)

Waifu Masters is a prestige-tier, collectible-first CCG built on scarcity, permanence, and brand integrity. We produce tightly controlled product lines, each with lasting value. Our products are designed for long-term collectors, not passing trends.
We are hiring a Chief Product Officer (CPO) to lead product vision, strategy, and execution across the Waifu Masters ecosystem. This includes physical and digital product development, design governance, lore fidelity, and production quality. The CPO will oversee the full lifecycle of every product released under the Waifu Masters brand.
As CPO, you will oversee three core domains:
1. World and Game: You will guide the development of the Waifu Masters universe, managing writers, game designers, and narrative architects. This includes responsibility for lore cohesion, core game mechanics, and the long-term evolution of the intellectual property.
2. Art and Design: You will own the visual development pipeline and have final say on all design elements, including cards, characters, packaging, and collector-tier treatments. You will oversee the art workflow, character creation process, and ensure all visual content aligns with the brand’s tone and standards.
3. Production and Merchandising: You will direct physical production, print operations, QA, and fulfillment in coordination with the production team. You will also lead merchandising efforts, working with the Chief Marketing Officer to design and optimize product drops, new SKUs, and expansions such as apparel, playmats, sleeves, figures, and limited-run collectibles.
In addition to owning these domains, you will be responsible for building out the full product team beneath each pillar. This includes organizing the current team structure, hiring new personnel, and ensuring that each area is led by a dedicated manager with the right mix of talent, capacity, and executional rigor.
This is a high-authority position for someone capable of building systems, managing leaders, and scaling output without sacrificing quality.
This is not a creative director role.
This is not a production coordinator role.
This is full-spectrum product leadership: world, art, and execution under one seat.
If that’s you, apply.
