This isn’t your average product support job. You’ll be the nerve centre connecting engineers, support, design, commercial—but also the calm in the storm when things get busy. You’ll help craft new versions of gear and keep the support machine running as they spread across the globe. In short: they need someone who can juggle, problem-solve, strategize, and make it all look (almost) easy.
How You’ll Make an Impact
Shape the product roadmap: Figure out what users (and the market) really want by listening, researching, and translating needs into action plans.
Tinker with cool electronics: Work with embedded systems—think Arduinos, Raspberry Pi, and custom sensors. Help turn “what if?” into “it works!”
Bridge the hardware-software divide: Speak both “engineer” and “user,” aligning firmware whizzes and web wizards so everything works seamlessly together.
Be the cross-team MVP: Connect development, QA, manufacturing, and more. Keep communication flowing and quality high.
Own support & escalation: Be an ace troubleshooter, building a global technical support framework that keeps customers (and the ops team) smiling.
Keep the knowledge flowing: Create clear product docs, setup guides, and FAQs so even newest team members can sound like experts.
Watch product health: Define and monitor KPIs, coordinate upgrades, and plan for what comes next (including gracefully retiring older units).The Kind of Person You Are
