General Product Manager

Reports To: CEO
Location: Louisville, KY
FLSA Status: Exempt, Full-Time

Overview
NVX is building one of the most ambitious car audio product catalogs in the world—engineered for performance and designed to deliver exceptional value. Our next chapter is scaling NVX into a globally recognized product powerhouse across subwoofers, amplifiers, speakers, wiring, and accessories.

We are hiring a General Product Manager to lead the expansion of the NVX catalog from concept to shelf. This role blends global sourcing, technical product innovation, and data-driven execution. You will work directly with factories—primarily in China and broader Asia—to develop, cost, refine, and launch best-in-class products.

This is a high-intensity, hands-on operator role. We are looking for someone who understands factory dynamics, can navigate complex technical conversations with engineers, and is comfortable managing the "always-on" nature of global manufacturing.

Responsibilities
  • End-to-End Lifecycle Management: Own the product development lifecycle (ideation sourcing production launch) on an intense, time-bound schedule.
  • Global Manufacturer Relations: Manage relationships with Global and Domestic manufacturers, ensuring all deliverables, annual budgets, and project milestones are met.
  • Technical Cross-Functional Leadership: Partner with internal packaging design, international industrial design, and multi-disciplinary engineering teams (Electrical, Acoustic, and Software).
  • Technical Oversight: Review and understand complex design concepts including Solid Works (3D design), 3D Scanning, and 3D Printing/Prototyping.
  • Manufacturing Expertise: Oversee production processes including rotomolding, injection molding, and related fabrication methods to ensure product integrity.
  • International Coordination: Maintain proactive communication with overseas vendors via chat programs and internal tools, including availability during evening hours to align with Asian time zones.
  • Strategic Sourcing: Lead RFQ processes, analyze BOMs, and recommend cost optimizations without sacrificing performance.
  • Data-Driven Innovation: Use Excel and AI tools to model pricing, forecast demand, and identify new product opportunities based on market trends.
  • Quality & Testing: Ensure product excellence through rigorous sampling, testing, and factory feedback loops.

Education & Skills Required
  • Bachelor’s Degree: Business, Engineering, Supply Chain, or related field preferred.
  • International Experience: 3+ years of hands-on experience working with manufacturers in Asia; must be comfortable traveling to China at least 2 times per year.
  • Technical Fluency: Ability to interpret technical drawings and understand the mechanics of injection molding, rotomolding, and 3D prototyping.
  • Software Proficiency: Advanced Microsoft Excel skills and experience leveraging AI tools (ChatGPT, automation) for productivity.
  • Communication: Exceptional ability to communicate across cultures and time zones; must be comfortable with "after-hours" digital correspondence with overseas partners.

Core Competencies
  • Time-Bound Execution: Ability to hit aggressive milestones within an intense project schedule.
  • Technical Literacy: Comfortable discussing specs with electrical and acoustic engineers.
  • Negotiation: Strong "cost-first" mindset with the ability to maintain high-quality standards.
  • Adaptability: Self-starter who thrives in an entrepreneurial, fast-paced environment.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Industry Experience: Experience in Car Audio is a significant plus. While car electronics experience is not strictly required, a background in General Consumer Electronics is highly valued.
  • Manufacturing Knowledge: Familiarity with the specific constraints and advantages of different molding and tooling processes.
  • Systems Experience: Familiarity with NetSuite or similar PLM/ERP systems.

What We Offer
  • Competitive compensation package, including salary and performance-based bonuses.
  • Health benefits (medical, dental, vision) for US-based employees.
  • 401K plan for US-based employees.
  • Entrepreneurial, high-performance team environment.
  • Direct access to leadership and fast decision-making.
  • Discounts on all products.
  • Flexible work environment (remote or office-based).
  • Paid vacation, sick time, and holidays.
  • Company events and team outings.

Compensation
  • Base Salary: $100K - $150K
