Principal Architect, Emerging Hardware

At Peloton, we aren’t just iterating on the fitness equipment of the past; we are inventing the physical-digital interfaces of the future. We are looking for a Principal Architect to be the mechanical and electromechanical soul of our next generation of hardware.

This is a "Zero-to-One" leadership. You won't be refining existing lines; you will be the point of contact for entirely new, undisclosed hardware categories. You will sit at the high-stakes intersection of strategic foresight and deep technical execution—transforming "what if" into "here is how."
