Senior Product Manager

Senior Product Manager, Technical Products / Hardware + Software

Full-Time

Overview

A growing technology company is hiring a Senior Product Manager as it moves from successful customer pilots into larger commercial deployments.

The product combines hardware and software and is used in complex physical environments where traceability, quality, compliance, and operational reliability matter.

This is not a traditional SaaS Product Manager role. The strongest fit will bring an engineering mindset, genuine product experience, and the ability to understand how technology actually fits into a customer's operation.

The Role

You’ll own the path from customer problem to product requirements to deployment.

That means getting close to customers, understanding how their workflows really operate, identifying the underlying problem, and translating those needs into something engineering can build and customers can successfully implement.

You’ll work closely across customers, engineering, operations, and leadership while helping the company turn individual pilots into repeatable, scalable deployments.

What You’ll Do

• Learn customer workflows, operational challenges, and requirements firsthand.
• Translate customer needs into clear product and technical requirements.
• Partner closely with hardware and software engineering teams.
• Help plan and execute customer pilots and production deployments.
• Evaluate workflow, throughput, physical handling, safety, compliance, and implementation needs.
• Develop the business case around ROI, operational value, and adoption.
• Help create repeatable product and deployment processes as the business scales.

What They’re Looking For

• Product management, technical product leadership, or closely related experience.
• Strong engineering foundation, particularly mechanical, industrial, manufacturing, systems, electrical, or a related discipline.
• Experience with products that connect software with hardware, physical systems, or real-world operations.
• Exposure to manufacturing, supply chain, warehouse, distribution, automation, production, or similarly complex environments.
• Experience in regulated, compliance-driven, or quality-critical settings.
• Strong customer empathy and the ability to uncover the real problem behind a stated requirement.
• Excellent communication skills across technical, operational, and business audiences.
• Comfortable working in an entrepreneurial environment where the playbook may still need to be built.

Environment

Lean, technically driven team with access to established engineering resources, technical infrastructure, and prototyping capabilities.

The role is primarily in-person in the Greater Los Angeles area and works closely with engineering while maintaining significant individual ownership.

Why It’s Worth a Look

• Real ownership over product direction and customer deployment.
• Direct exposure to customers, engineers, and company leadership.
• Opportunity to help take a differentiated product from pilot-stage adoption into broader commercialization.
• Equity participation.
• Significant room for the scope of the role to grow as the business scales.
