Senior Product Manager

About Nabu Casa

Nabu Casa, Inc was founded in 2018 by the founders of both Home Assistant, the open source home automation platform, and Home Assistant OS, the operating system that turns your device into a smart home hub powered by Home Assistant. These projects have seen an immense growth and have helped shape DIY home automation communities around the world.

After being involved in the Internet of Things industry for many years, we realized that there is a need for a cloud service that aims to put users, their privacy and their data first. Such a cloud can only be built as an extension to a platform that does the same:
Home Assistant.

With Nabu Casa we are building this cloud service and we’re calling it Home Assistant Cloud.

We are a profitable company with no external investors. Our funding comes directly from users who subscribe to Home Assistant Cloud and purchase Home Assistant hardware, ensuring our only stakeholders are our employees and our users. We also support other open-source projects, including those focused on hardware, standards, and voice technology.

We are looking for an experienced and visionary Senior Product Manager based in Europe to lead the strategy for our Cloud and Hardware products. Our Cloud product is a SaaS subscription service, and our Hardware line provides users with optimized Home Assistant devices. In this role, you'll be building the product function for both of these critical initiatives.

This is Nabu Casa's first dedicated Product Manager role. You won't be stepping into an established product function—you’ll be defining what product management looks like here. This means:

• You have significant autonomy in how you approach product strategy, processes, and decision‑making frameworks
• You’ll establish how we prioritize across competing demands from engineers, community, and leadership
• You’ll build the metrics and feedback loops that inform our product roadmap
• You’ll create the operating model for how product decisions get made in an async, distributed team
• You’ll need to evangelize PM practices and build confidence in data‑driven decision making

This role is ideal for a PM who has successfully built product functions before, thrives in ambiguity, shares Nabu Casa and Home Assistant’s values around privacy, security, sustainability and is excited about defining processes rather than just inheriting them. You'll report directly to our CEO but will work closely with our CTO, VP and Program Manager to establish how the product organization scales as we grow.

• Identify and execute a product strategy for the future of our Cloud and Hardware products, from ideation to delivery, together with engineers, program managers and leadership at Nabu Casa and the Open Home Foundation.
• Lead the day‑to‑day product development operation, participating actively in anything required to complete the job, collaborating closely with our Cloud and Hardware teams as well as other senior team members to shape the future of our services.
• Collaborate with our partner, the open home foundation, ensuring alignment and the best integration possible between our products and their technologies
• Help our Program Manager to shape our product roadmap and work with the teams to help plan and break down our programs and projects into meaningful deadlines.
• Involve our worldwide community in shaping Nabu Casa products, from discovery to delivery.

• 5‑10+ years of experience driving and shaping strategy and vision for a product, delivering value to users as a senior product manager.
• Experience building or scaling product functions:
  You've either been an early PM at a growing company and helped establish how product gets managed, OR you've led through significant organizational change where you had to define new processes and ways of working.
• Experience in delivering products in the B2C space with direct SaaS experience
• Meaningful experience with complete autonomy, and iterative development/releasing.
• Proficiency in working in multi-disciplinary teams (UX designers, researchers, marketing, and…
