What the job involves

We're looking for a Product Manager to own Buddy's software and to lead the search for what Buddy becomes next. You'll start by driving the roadmap for the Buddy device and the Buddy Plus subscription. Over time, about half your time will go to validating new Buddy products for other members of the family
You love talking to customers, you move fast from an idea to a prototype, and you're comfortable when hardware and software meet. You'll report to our VP of product, and you'll work closely with engineering, design, hardware, marketing and customer service
Own the Buddy roadmap. Decide what Buddy and Buddy Plus build next. Prioritize ruthlessly and scope a minimum lovable product so features ship on time
Validate what's next. Find new customers and use cases for Buddy, then test them quickly with prototypes, customer conversations and small experiments before we invest
Shape the hardware. Work with our hardware team to turn what you learn into requirements for future Buddy devices
Set goals and measure them. Define the metrics for your work, track them, and use what you learn to steer the team
Work across the company. Partner with engineering, design, marketing and customer service so launches go smoothly and families actually use what we ship

Our take

Skylight, a digital photo frame and smart calendar brand, has emerged as a solution to a timeless problem: staying connected with loved ones in an increasingly digital world. With over 1.5M units sold, Skylight's flagship product, the Skylight Frame, has quickly become the top-selling digital picture frame on Amazon. It offers a way for users to share cherished photos with family and friends from anywhere in the world.

To further expand its reach, Skylight recently closed a successful funding round. This funding marks a pivotal moment for the company, affirming its journey from a decade of profitable bootstrapping to a new era of growth and innovation. The capital injection will be used to support the company's mission to meet the surging demand for its tech and propel it to even greater heights.
