About Odyssey
Odyssey (a Public Benefit Corp) is a seed-stage, pioneering mental health startup on track to become among the premier providers of psychedelic therapy in the United States. Odyssey provides legal, professionally guided psilocybin experiences, currently in the states of Oregon and Colorado with plans to expand to additional states as jurisdictions allow. In 2023, Odyssey made history by running the US’ first legal psilocybin retreat in history and has been at the forefront ever since. Client outcomes have been exceptional, with an NPS of 89 and the majority of clients reporting the experience as among the top 5 most meaningful experiences of their lives.
Odyssey is led by Gabe Charalambides (Stanford Aero/Astro and MBA, Cape (acq Motorola)) and funded by top tier investors, family offices and angels.
The Role
Odyssey is seeking a Product Manager to spearhead a variety of product initiatives as the company’s first dedicated product hire.
