Key job responsibilities

The Hardware System Engineering Program Manager (EPM) provides the heartbeat for hardware development at eero. They are jack-of-all-trades engineers who leverage a wide breadth of technical and manufacturing expertise to develop schedules and project milestones that properly balance technical risk and maintain team focus. The EPM owns and manages the hardware development process, from concept, right through the start of mass production. They lead the team through roadmap development, concept and architecture definition, support supplier selection, and manage day-to-day project execution. Most of all, System EPMs are fearless champions of the customer experience. Their role is highly cross-functional, technical, and instrumental to great product development.

● Set the hardware schedule. Define the critical path and develop a build cadence that sets aggressive targets while managing risk.

● Be the hub for hardware communication. Act as the primary point of contact for overall hardware development.

● Track program risks and drive closure on engineering issues. Organize and host design maturity reviews and enforce project milestones

About the team

WiFi is the new electricity. Outside of the smartphone, it’s the technology we depend on the most; the foundation for the modern home. It makes our favorite experiences – Netflix, Spotify, FaceTime – come to life. Without it, almost nothing works.

But at best, WiFi is like death by a thousand cuts: dead zones, painful setup, embarrassing passwords, equipment that’s a major eyesore. At worst, it fails completely – just as you’re trying to send that critical file to your boss or firing up the Sonos for your dinner party.

eero is fixing all of this. It’s not easy, which is why we’ve built a world-class team and culture. We all believe deeply in what we’re doing, and, as importantly, enjoy doing it together.
