About the role

  • Define the Hardware Standard: Take full end-to-end ownership of the design, launch, and evolution of Dandy’s physical products. You will turn our current hardware into an industry-leading, seamless digital experience.
  • Unlock New Markets: Identify and capture whitespace opportunities. You will lead the charge on developing next-generation products.
  • Architect the Supply Chain: Lead critical "build vs. buy" strategies. You will move Dandy away from off-the-shelf components toward high-quality, custom hardware, ensuring our products are proprietary, defensible, and superior in the market.
  • Drive Technical Excellence: Be the final word on quality and iteration. You will dive deep into the weeds to resolve complex hardware bottlenecks—from battery thermal management to mechanical design flaws—ensuring 100% reliability for our doctors.

Requirements

  • A Track Record of Success: You must have successfully built and launched at least one complex, consumer-facing or B2B electrical hardware product at scale.
  • Full-Stack Technical Breadth: Deep, hands-on understanding of the hardware lifecycle, including electrical engineering, mechanical design, and firmware integration.
  • Operational Command: Extensive experience managing vendors and contract manufacturers to bring high-fidelity products to market.
  • Entrepreneurial Grit: A "drive and hustle" mentality. You are excited to roll up your sleeves to solve edge-case technical failures while simultaneously leading high-level strategy.
  • Obsessive User Focus: A background in Hardware Product Management or Hardware Engineering with a fanatical devotion to UX and workflow optimization.
