This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, which manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior Technical Product Manager based in Spain.
Join a mission-driven organization advancing the Ethereum ecosystem by building open-source infrastructure that empowers developers worldwide.
As Senior Technical Product
Manager, you will own the product strategy and roadmaps for two essential developer tools, Hardhat and Ethereum Development Runtime (EDR). You will translate complex technical challenges and developer needs into clear product requirements, prioritizing features that improve the experience of building, testing, and deploying smart contracts.
Working closely with engineering leaders, software engineers, and ecosystem partners, you will shape API behavior, command-line interfaces, and core developer workflows. This senior individual contributor role combines technical expertise, product judgment, and strategic thinking in a remote-first environment built around autonomy and collaboration. Your work will directly influence the quality, reliability, and evolution of tools that support the broader Ethereum developer community.
Accountabilities
Product strategy and roadmap ownership:
Define, execute, and continuously refine the product roadmaps for Hardhat and EDR, ensuring alignment with long-term strategic objectives, developer needs, and ecosystem priorities.
Product prioritization and decision-making:
Own decisions about what to build next, balancing developer impact, engineering effort, technical constraints, ecosystem requirements, and long-term product sustainability.
Requirements and documentation
Write and maintain product requirements documents (PRDs), feature specifications, and product design documentation that translate complex needs into clear, actionable guidance for engineering teams.
Technical product execution
Take ownership of core product management activities, driving feature definition, scope, prioritization, and execution in collaboration with engineering leadership and development teams.
Developer experience and product design:
Define user experience expectations and developer-facing functionality, ensuring that APIs, command-line interfaces (CLIs), configuration options, and other product surfaces remain intuitive and consistent.
Engineering collaboration
Work closely with the CTO, Head of Engineering, engineering managers, and software engineers to align dependencies, establish delivery sequences, assess trade-offs, and support effective technical decision-making.
Technical feasibility assessment
Evaluate architectural constraints, implementation complexity, and engineering trade-offs to ensure product requirements are realistic, appropriately scoped, and aligned with broader technical objectives.
Developer needs and ecosystem research:
Identify high-impact problems through developer feedback, ecosystem engagement, and an understanding of Ethereum development workflows, translating insights into actionable product opportunities.
Bug and feedback prioritization
Identify opportunities to improve existing products, prioritize bugs and user feedback, and help remove blockers that affect development progress or the developer experience.
Cross-functional communication:
Serve as the primary product point of contact for engineering teams, providing clear and consistent guidance on product decisions, requirements, and user experience expectations.
Product quality and consistency
Ensure that features are delivered with a coherent user experience across both products, supporting reliable workflows for writing, testing, compiling, and deploying smart contracts.
Stakeholder alignment
Build strong relationships with internal leaders, engineers, and external ecosystem partners to maintain transparency, communicate product direction, and ensure decisions reflect both immediate needs and long-term goals.
Requirements
Product management experience
At least five years of professional experience as a Product Manager or Product Owner working on technical, developer-facing products or platforms.
Software engineering background
At least two years of previous professional experience as a Software Engineer, including hands-on development in a strongly typed programming language such as TypeScript, Rust, C++, C#, Java, or Go.
Developer tools expertise
Experience building or managing developer-focused products, such as APIs, software development kits (SDKs), command-line interfaces (CLIs), IDE integrations, or infrastructure platforms.
Technical product judgment
Ability to evaluate technical feasibility, architectural limitations, implementation complexity, and engineering trade-offs, partnering effectively with engineers to make pragmatic product decisions.
Product strategy and roadmap management:
Demonstrated ability to define product direction, prioritize competing initiatives, manage dependencies, and align delivery plans with broader strategic goals.
Requirements definition
Experience translating developer needs and business objectives into clear PRDs, feature specifications, product documentation, and actionable engineering requirements.
End-to-end product execution:
Strong understanding of product discovery, design, iteration, prioritization,
development, and release processes, with accountability for outcomes throughout the product lifecycle.
User-focused mindset:
Proven ability to understand developer workflows, identify friction points, and make thoughtful product decisions that balance usability, technical quality, and ecosystem needs.
Cross-functional collaboration:
Experience working closely with engineering teams and technical leadership, facilitating discussions, resolving ambiguities, and building alignment around complex product decisions.
Communication skills
Excellent written and verbal communication, with the ability to explain technical concepts clearly and establish trust with engineers and ecosystem stakeholders.
Autonomy and ownership
Strong problem-solving skills, sound judgment, and the ability to independently identify high-impact opportunities, make decisions, and drive progress in a distributed environment.
Ethereum ecosystem knowledge
Practical familiarity with Ethereum protocols, developer tools, smart contract development, or related infrastructure is expected.
Adaptability and strategic thinking
Ability to navigate complex technical environments, balance immediate priorities against long-term product goals, and maintain a clear product vision as ecosystem needs evolve.
Benefits
ETH grant
A vesting grant denominated in Ether (ETH) as part of the total compensation package.
Unlimited paid time off
Flexibility to take time off while maintaining alignment with team responsibilities and project commitments.
IT equipment budget
Financial support to obtain the equipment needed for an effective remote working setup.
Annual learning and development budget:
Dedicated funding to support professional growth, technical learning, and continued development.
