Powered by two trusted, global brands, Shark and Ninja, the company has a proven track record of bringing disruptive innovation to market, and developing one consumer product after another has allowed SharkNinja to enter multiple product categories, driving significant growth and market share gains. Headquartered in Needham, Massachusetts with more than 3,600+ associates, the company’s products are sold at key retailers, online and offline, and through distributors around the world.    This isn’t just a design management role—it’s about leading the spark behind SharkNinja’s next generation of iconic products.

Partner with Mechanical Engineering, R&D, Product Development, and Product Marketing to ensure early concepts are rooted in a strong, scalable product strategy. Integrate knowledge of materials, manufacturing methods (e.g., plastic injection molding, die casting, sheet metal), and DFM/DFA to ensure ideas are not just exciting but achievable. Inspire and lead a team of engineers and designers, fostering a culture of curiosity, experimentation, and excellence. Contribute to the strategic direction of the Advanced Development pipeline, identifying opportunities for innovation and differentiation.  What You’ll Bring  Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Product Design, or a closely related technical discipline. 8+ years of experience in product development, with at least 3 years in a management role, ideally in a high-volume consumer goods environment.

Excellent communication and storytelling skills with the ability to pitch ideas and influence stakeholders across all levels of the organization.
