Product Manager

We're hiring a Product Manager to own hardware products end-to-end from concept through mass production, including the daily vendor execution that makes them ship on time. You'll own specs, schedules, and the calls when cost, performance, and timeline collide.This role is title-flexible. Strong candidates may come from Product Management, Technical Program Management, Engineering Program Management, or hardware engineering with program ownership experience. We care about what you've shipped, not what your title was.

Growth: Profitable growth with 5M+ customers and international expansion
