Product Manager, Networking & Software (Electrical Utility Products)

Remote
Full Time
Mid Level
At NovaTech Automation, we build the hardware and software that keep the electrical grid running—the systems behind the substations and controls that power homes, hospitals, and businesses every day. It's meaningful, high-stakes work, and we do it with a team that's smart, grounded, and genuinely enjoys solving hard problems together. If you're looking for a place where your work actually matters and where good ideas get heard no matter where they come from, we'd love to meet you.

WHAT YOU’LL OWN
–  The full life of our networking and software products — strategy, roadmap, launch, and the tough call on when to retire something.
–  The customer’s point of view. You’ll visit utility sites, sit on advisory boards, and turn what you hear into real product requirements.
–  Cross-team alignment. You’ll bring sales, engineering, and manufacturing to the same page without having authority over any of them.
–  The numbers. Pricing, budgets, profitability, and the KPIs that tell us a product is working — adoption, satisfaction, market share.
–  Go-to-market. Positioning, sales enablement, beta programs, and launches that actually land in the power-utility market.

 
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
Must-haves
–  A bachelor’s degree in engineering, business, or a related field.
–  5+ years of product management for technical B2B products — in power utility, industrial automation, or an adjacent industry.
–  A real track record of launches you carried from concept to market.
–  Hands-on experience with networking devices or substation-automation equipment.
Nice-to-haves
–  A master’s in engineering or an MBA.
–  Deep familiarity with grid edge and substation applications.

 
THE TECHNICAL SIDE
This role is the subject-matter expert for networking devices in substation and grid edge use. You’ll want a strong grip on Ethernet networks, routing, and cybersecurity best practices, plus familiarity with the automation protocols our world runs on — DNP3, IEC 61850, and C37.118. You’ll also keep an eye on IEEE and IEC standards as they move.
 
WHY NOVATECH
We build for the grid — the stuff that has to work every second of every day. We run on four values: integrity, teamwork, service, and innovation. This is a fully remote role open across the Americas, with light travel (up to 15%) for the fun parts — customer visits, trade shows, and getting in the room with the people who use what we build.
