About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Owning product execution end to end, from talking to hardware engineers, to writing specs and PRDs, to working daily with engineering to ship
Running discovery across our early adopter program, which spans several dozen internal and external companies, getting into the real workflows of hardware program execution and turning them into product
Being the domain voice in the room, able to talk credibly with an EE, a mechanical lead, or a program manager about their actual pain and earn their trust in the first conversation
Driving the roadmap and hitting dates by setting realistic timelines, communicating them clearly, and delivering against them consistently
Writing clearly and concisely across specs, updates, and customer-facing material, because writing is how product gets built here
Prototyping and demoing, putting things in front of users early, running the demo yourself, and iterating on what you learn

Requirements

What you’ll need

Direct experience running hardware program execution, whether as an NPI or hardware program manager, a hardware, systems, or EE lead who ran programs, or a PM embedded deep in hardware development
Demonstrated 0-to-1 experience taking a new product from a blank page to something real and shipped, whether hardware or software
High output and a bias to action, with a track record of shipping
Excellent written communication that is clear, concise, and structured, with the ability to turn a messy problem into a one-page spec anyone can act on
Deadline discipline: you set commitments, keep them, and flag slippage early
Deep subject-matter credibility with hardware engineers and program teams
Comfort using AI tools to accelerate your own work
