Position Summary:At Miovision, we are engineering the future of smart transportation, and to keep our physical infrastructure moving at highway speeds, we need a highly strategic Senior Product Manager to drive a critical segment of our hardware business. Reporting directly to the Product Director of Hardware, you will be the ultimate traffic controller for our physical product portfolio. We need a visionary who can expertly navigate the complex intersections of ambiguous market signals, engineering realities, and evolving field conditions. You will be the driving force that shifts our physical products from discrete sensing components into a fully connected, intelligent device platform. If you are ready to steer our hardware roadmap out of gridlock, build rugged devices that survive the wildest environments, and merge our physical technology seamlessly with our software ecosystem, green means go!
Objectives and Responsibilities:- Strategic Ownership: Take full accountability for the success and adoption metrics of our hardware products, defining exactly how they integrate into the broader hardware-software ecosystem.
- Future-Proofing: Predict 1-3 year technology shifts, initiate de-risking projects, and distill complex market dynamics into a clear "North Star" for your portfolio.
- Platform Design: Design field-ready, software-extensible platforms-not just point solutions-that proactively account for ruggedization, long refresh cycles, and frictionless installation.
- Lifecycle Leadership: Build high-conviction business cases and manage the entire hardware lifecycle from concept and development through to launch and end-of-life.
- Market Discovery: Establish a permanent rhythm of internal and external discovery to validate risky assumptions early and identify emerging opportunities in edge AI, compute, and sensing.
- High-Stakes Decision Making: Drive major architecture and platform investments, grounding decisions in performance constraints, supply chain exposure, industry standards, and strict P&L goals.
- Cross-Functional Alignment: Successfully align Engineering, Operations, and Go-To-Market (GTM) teams on unified release plans, expertly managing the complex interface between agile software and waterfall hardware development.
- Industry Advocacy: Actively engage with industry standards bodies and working groups to stay ahead of regulatory requirements and represent our device platform strategy externally.
The Ideal Profile:- The Strategic Veteran: You bring advanced product management experience, thriving in autonomy and ambiguity. You comfortably manage "up and sideways," and know exactly how to say "no" strategically to protect your team's focus and critical business needs.
- The Systems Thinker: You look beyond individual features to understand how sensors, edge compute, firmware, and cloud software form one cohesive product experience. You ensure that hardware decisions never constrain software evolution.
- The Field Hardware Expert: You have a proven track record of designing products for rugged, outdoor, or industrial environments. You deeply understand the trade-offs around environmental ratings, physical UI, installation UX, and hardware longevity.
- The User-Obsessed Explorer: You always start with the user and work backwards. You build continuous discovery loops to deeply understand pain points and validate assumptions with multi-modal data long before committing engineering resources.
- The Business Mind: You possess razor-sharp business acumen. You deeply understand financial levers like COGS and margins, and you know exactly how hardware unit economics tie into broader engineering and corporate sales goals.
- The B2G Master: You understand the unique complexities of how government agencies, municipalities, and enterprise buyers evaluate and procure infrastructure hardware, successfully maneuvering through long sales cycles and tight procurement constraints.
Your Rewards & Well-being:We invest in our team with benefits designed for modern life and true work-life balance.
- Comprehensive Coverage: Your well-being is covered from day one with comprehensive health benefits, 24/7 virtual healthcare access, and dedicated wellness programs.
- Financial Future: Build for tomorrow with our RRSP/401K Matching Plan and share in the company's success through our Variable Incentive Plan.
- Time to Recharge: Truly unplug with our unique Mio-Days and flexible vacation policy.
- Work & Life Support: We support you with flexible work options, an internet subsidy, a remote work allowance, and enhanced leave for new parents.
