About The Position
We are ecobee, a company that introduced the world's first smart Wi-Fi thermostat. We continue to create technology that brings peace of mind into the home and allows people to focus on the moments that matter most, while making a positive impact on the environment. In 2021, ecobee became a subsidiary of Generac Power Systems, a company committed to sustainable, cleaner energy products. Together, we are building the world of tomorrow with solutions that improve everyday life and positively impact the planet. We are a rapidly growing global tech company headquartered in Toronto, Canada, with an office in Leeds, UK, and remote employees in the US. We are looking for curious, talented, and passionate people to join our team. Our Toronto-based hive is looking for a Staff Product Manager to lead our Energy Services business. Product Managers at ecobee operate as builders, storytellers, and stewards of the business, staying connected to customer needs and delivery realities, clarifying and communicating value, and taking ownership for outcomes across the full product lifecycle. We are a team full of creative ideas, passionate about building world-class products and services, and driven to get things done. You will bring extensive knowledge of the energy services ecosystem to develop and execute an ecobee-wide strategy for products, operating both near-term for immediate impact and long-term.

- 10+ years of product management (or equivalent) experience, with significant experience building and scaling software, platform, or service-based products in energy, smart home, or adjacent connected-device ecosystems.
- Demonstrated ability to lead across engineering, design, data, commercial, and operations teams—with a track record of delivering complex products or programs through cross-functional dependencies and external partnerships.
