About the role

Job Description:

 

 

We are seeking a seasoned and strategic Senior Product Manager to lead the development and lifecycle management of our differentiated fastening solutions and third-party tooling portfolio. This role is critical in shaping the product roadmap, driving innovation, and ensuring continued market success.

The ideal candidate brings a strong technical foundation across structural, electro-mechanical, and commercial domains, coupled with proven experience in product strategy and cross-functional leadership. This is a high-impact role requiring a balance of technical acumen, market insight, and business execution

Key Responsibilities:

  • Own the product lifecycle for installation tools and tracker fasteners from concept through end-of-life.

  • Lead roadmap development to align with business strategies around cost reduction, field productivity, and regionalization (e.g., domestic content, corrosion resistance).

  • Collaborate with Engineering, NPI, and Construction teams to qualify new tools (e.g., torque-controlled, battery-powered tools) and fastener systems (e.g., bobtails, blind rivets, anti-theft designs).

  • Define product requirements, user stories, and test protocols for tool and fastener innovations (e.g., ¼" steel bobtails, wide flange fasteners, high-corrosion variants).

  • Partner with Supply Chain and Quality to onboard and scale suppliers, ensuring delivery readiness for priority markets (e.g., U.S., India, LATAM).

  • Support field deployments and training with Construction and Project Engineering teams, maintaining a "no-tool-down" culture through robust service and support strategies.

  • Monitor market, competitive, and regulatory trends to guide development of differentiating features (e.g., ergonomics, automation compatibility, sustainability).

  • Track KPIs and value realization metrics such as cost per watt saved, tool uptime, install time per MW, and customer satisfaction.

 

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or equivalent; MBA preferred.

  • 6+ years of product management experience in mechanical or electro-mechanical systems, preferably in the solar, construction, or industrial tools space.

  • Proven track record of launching and scaling hardware products with strong ROI.

  • Experience with installation tools (pneumatic, battery-operated) and fastener technologies (steel, aluminum, corrosion-resistant coatings).

  • Familiarity with construction environments and hands-on tool testing is highly desirable.

  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, global environment with cross-functional teams across time zones.

  • Strong analytical, organizational, and communication skills.
