About the opportunity

Are you a Technical Project Manager with a passion for bringing hardware and electronics products to life? I'm working with an innovative technology company looking for an experienced Technical Project Manager to join their Hardware & Electronics Engineering team.

This role sits at the intersection of engineering, innovation, and delivery – bringing new hardware and electronics products from concept to market and scaling them globally. With significant private equity backing secured in 2024, the business is in a strong growth phase with substantial investment in new technology, team development, and scaling operations.

If you thrive in fast-paced environments, are confident managing complex, cross-functional projects, and have proven experience delivering electronics or hardware products, this could be an excellent opportunity.

As a Technical Project Manager:

You'll lead the delivery of technical projects that form the backbone of the company's hardware offering – working with teams across electronics development, embedded systems, testing, supply chain, and commercial functions. Your focus will be on both internal R&D initiatives and external customer projects, with a clear path from roadmap to deployment.

• Managing electronics development projects aligned with the product roadmap
• Leading customer-facing projects that bring new hardware products to market
• Coordinating product testing and certification with third-party vendors
• Supporting the supply chain to scale manufacturing and delivery
• Providing clear technical leadership across multidisciplinary teams
• Championing best practice in project management, collaboration, and knowledge sharing
• Working with commercial teams to define business cases and ensure products deliver real-world value

You will need to bring to the table:

We're looking for someone who combines technical depth with delivery expertise – a clear communicator who's comfortable in the detail but driven by outcomes.

Essential requirements:

• Proven experience as a Project Manager or Product Manager in electronics/hardware development (not software)
• Strong understanding of how business needs translate into technical product requirements
• A track record of delivering complex, multi-disciplinary hardware projects
• Familiarity with product development lifecycles including compliance and reliability testing
• Confidence using Atlassian tools (Jira/Confluence) or similar project management platforms
• A strong safety mindset and quality-first approach
• Degree in Electronics, Physics, or a related engineering discipline

Why choose this role & company over another:

This is an excellent opportunity to join a well-funded, ambitious company at a pivotal growth stage. You'll be working on innovative hardware products with genuine technical complexity, leading projects that have direct commercial impact, and working alongside talented multidisciplinary teams.
