Hardware Engineering Manager

Key Responsibilities

• Own the engineering direction of our hardware product line worldwide — no exceptions on reliability, manufacturability, or field performance in any market we ship to.
• Design, build, and maintain the firmware integration bridging our hardware and platform — you write the code, not just review someone else's.
• Lead and grow a hardware team, setting a technical bar high enough that the best engineers want to clear it.
• Go toe-to-toe with 3rd-party manufacturing partners and contract manufacturers — validate designs, hunt down root causes in the field, and don't stop until the fix actually holds.

Requirements

• A true hands-on engineer — mechanical, electrical, firmware — must, who's validated real hardware in the real world, not just on a spec sheet.
• Serious embedded firmware chops (C/C++ or equivalent) — must, comfortable debugging at the register level when it counts.
• Management experience — must have.
• Experience with EV charging and/or unattended payment hardware systems — a significant advantage.

Nice-to-Have Skills

• EV charging or unattended-payment hardware experience — bonus points if you've shipped in this space before.
• Battle-tested experience working with contract manufacturers / EMS partners.
• Experience mentoring or leading other engineers — we want someone who raises the bar for everyone around them.
