About SimpliSafe

We’re a high-tech home security company that’s passionate about protecting the life you’ve built and our mission of keeping Every Home Secure. And we’ve created a culture here that cares just as deeply about the career you’re building. Ours is a no ego culture of collaboration and innovation where those seeking their next challenge can find big opportunities and make a huge impact on the lives of all those who we protect. We don’t just want you to work here. We want you to grow and thrive here.

We’re embracing a hybrid work model that enables our teams to split their time between office and home. Hybrid for us means we expect our teams to come together in our state-of-the-art office on two core days, typically Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday – working together in person and choosing where they work for the remainder of the week. We all benefit from flexibility and get to use the best of both worlds to get our work done.

Why are we hiring?

Well, we’re growing and thriving. So, we need smart, talented, and humble people who share our values to join us as we disrupt the home security space and relentlessly pursue our mission of keeping Every Home Secure.

About the Role

We're looking for a Staff Technical Program Manager to lead hardware programs that pair connected security devices with the subscription services built on top of them. You'll work in partnership with APAC-based joint design manufacturing (JDM) and other development and manufacturing partners, owning the program from concept through EVT, DVT, PVT, and mass production. This role includes occasional travel to the APAC region and periodic evening calls to align with partner teams across time zones.

What you'll do

• Run waterfall, stage-gate hardware development schedules (ID, ME, EE, schematic, layout, PCBA, tooling, mold) while coordinating with connected software and cloud teams working in Scrum or other Agile methods, translating between the two planning approaches to keep milestones aligned.
• Manage APAC-based JDM and other development and manufacturing partners end to end, from design reviews through EVT, DVT, PVT, and production ramp, including on-site engagement at key program milestones.
• Interface regularly with supply chain, strategic sourcing, production planning, quality, reliability, and regulatory/compliance managers to keep programs on track from component sourcing through certification and general availability.
• Facilitate technical trade-offs between short-term engineering needs and long-term business goals, and communicate program progress, risks, and recommendations clearly at all levels, including executive leadership.
• Define technical and product requirements for engineering teams; negotiate resources and priorities, escalate effectively, and find a path forward in difficult situations.
• Rally support across diverse, deeply technical teams to keep complex, cross-functional programs on track and proactively remove roadblocks.
