Who are we?

Lyka is an Australian founded pet wellness company that’s shaking up an outdated industry and paving the way for happier, healthier pets. Despite medical advancements, animal lifespans are on the decline. Today, the average pet only reaches 37% of their full potential lifespan and statistics have shown us that many suffer from dental disease, cancer, and obesity. Simply put, the status quo is not enough.

As humans, we’ve experienced firsthand the positive impact fresh wholefoods can have on our health and wellbeing, and we believe our furry friends deserve the same. We're on a mission to do just that, starting with nutritionally balanced, wholefood meals delivered direct to doors around Australia. As the world’s most sustainable pet wellness company, we’re putting pets and our planet first — one bowl at a time.

Today, we are proud to share we’ve served almost 30 million meals to puppers and their parents across Australia, and this is just the beginning. Our vision is to create multiple nutritional products, adding disease prevention meals and supplements, and expand into new markets.

Currently, we have a team of 200+ pet-obsessed and we're continuing to grow (yes, looking at you!). These carefully selected people are dedicated to building the next generation of technology and products to help empower pet parents to take control over their pet’s wellbeing.

To date, we have raised over $60M in funding from venture capital investors and pet industry insiders, who believe in our mission and ability to drive change in a stagnant industry, providing nutrition that nourishes puppers from the inside out.

Are you ready to shake things up and give pets the life they deserve? Come join our pack!

Our Mission

The time we share with our pets is being cut short. Despite medical advancements, they’re getting sicker earlier. They’re dying prematurely. The industry has it backwards — prioritising treating symptoms instead of addressing the root cause. That’s where we come in.

At Lyka, we take a preventative, holistic and personalised approach to pet care. We look at the full picture, factoring in the diet, lifestyle and environment of each individual animal.

We don’t stop at symptoms, instead we dig for the root cause. We create nutrition plans unique to each pet, because it’s not just about living longer, but living well too.

Our mission is to double the average lifespan of dogs and cats by 2050.

The Team

At Lyka, we're on a mission to transform the pet wellness industry, and we're seeking a commercially savvy Lead Product Manager to join our team. As part of our Retention squad, you'll play a crucial role in mapping the customer journey for all existing Lyka users. Your focus will be on understanding every touchpoint, identifying challenges, and devising actionable strategies to minimise churn and boost revenue.

In this role, you'll have the opportunity to redefine and elevate our product strategies, ensuring that we adhere to the highest standards of product management excellence. Collaboration will be key, as you work closely with our customer experience, product, service design, and engineering teams to develop and execute growth initiatives.

If you're ready to make a significant impact in the pet wellness industry and drive positive change, we want to hear from you!

What You'll Do:

Craft a winning product strategy that aligned with our company's growth and revenue targets, keeping customer needs at the forefront.

Innovate the digital customer journey by identify and prioritise opportunities to enhance the digital customer journey through thorough research, data analysis, and user experiments.
