Director, Technical Product Management
About The Position
Hashgraph is a fast-growing software company committed to supporting, developing and servicing Hedera, an open source, proof-of-stake platform. Hedera is EVM-compatible and has been specifically built to meet the needs of enterprise and web3 applications, which require speed, security, stability and sustainability. Hedera’s public network is governed by industry-leading organizations, spanning 11 sectors and 14 regions who oversee the development and direction of the decentralized platform. We are hiring a Director, Technical Product Management to bring clarity, cohesion, and execution rigor to Hedera’s core protocol and developer platform. This role exists to ensure that protocol evolution, developer experience, and ecosystem needs translate into a coherent, high-quality, and widely adopted product roadmap. Without this role, we risk fragmented roadmap decisions, degraded developer experience, and slower ecosystem adoption.
