Your Role
As Senior Director of Hardware Product Management, you and your team will help define the future of the Hudl hardware portfolio, which includes cameras, wearables and other accessories. You'll help determine what success looks like for your business unit, team or product, and work across functions and departments to achieve that success.
In this role, you will be asked to:
- Create a product strategy and vision. You'll work with your leadership team to create a coherent product strategy and vision for the hardware product lines, connecting that to the wider company strategy.
- Lead continuous improvement. You'll help improve delivery capability and enable the team to scale across a broad surface area.
- Collaborate. You'll foster communication between business units, challenging the status quo when necessary. You'll lead Engineering and Design in making decisions that balance cost, timeline and customer benefit. You'll also work with Marketing to develop and support go-to-market plans.
- Advocate for the product. You'll establish mutual respect and trust with each stakeholder, including Hudl's senior leadership. You'll develop a deep understanding of our customers and our business needs.
- Motivate. You'll inspire your squad, release team and any others in the company who contribute to the product.
Our priority is to hire someone for this role who lives near our offices in Lincoln or Omaha, Nebraska, but we're also open to remote candidates in the U.S. who live in Central or Eastern time zones. The following states are possible locations for remote hires: AL, FL, GA, IL, IN, IA, KS, KY, LA, MA, MI, MN, MO, NE, NH, NC, OH, OK, PA, SC, SD, TN, TX, VA, and WI. We're not considering paid relocation at this time.
