Generac's Home Division is hiring for a Staff Product Manager (Level IV) who can drive both hardware and software initiatives across our residential solar and storage product line. This person bridges the gap between engineering, operations, and customers - turning complex technical challenges into shipped products that work in the real world.

Partner with field teams to understand real-world installation challenges and feed those insights back into the product

Strong project management instincts - you keep things moving, unblock teams, and hold yourself and others accountable to timelines

You can explain a BOM issue to an engineer and a value proposition to a customer in the same afternoon

Comfort working across the stack: mechanical/electrical hardware, embedded systems, cloud platforms, and mobile/web applications

Minimum Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Electrical, Mechanical or other Engineering

5+ years of product management experience in residential solar, energy storage, or a closely related hardware/software domain
