Job Description:
About Us SharkNinja is a global product design and technology
company, with a diversified portfolio of 5-star rated lifestyle
solutions that positively impact people’s lives in homes around the
world. 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. The Product Development
organization within SharkNinja drives our global product roadmap
from concept to shelf through the constant lens of the consumer. We
are the “product CEOs,” partnering cross-functionally with almost
every other team within the business to drive high consumer
satisfaction and business results. We are comprised of individuals
from a variety of professional and educational backgrounds, from
product marketing managers to consumer-focused engineers – but we
all have one thing in common: we’re consistently striving to
deliver a 5-star experience for every consumer on every product we
bring to market. Here are some of the EXCITING things you’ll get to
do: - Support the Ninja business with the development of successful
and profitable programs for key products to ensure continued growth
of the product portfolio – you will be responsible for the
day-to-day business management and enhancement of some of our Shark
product lines, including driving product improvements and
optimizations, conducting user research, and partnering with
Engineers, Marketers, and more on rolling these product
enhancements out to ensure a continued 5-star experience. - Define,
develop, and iterate product specifications, marrying consumer
wants/needs, white space in the market, and product technologies as
the primary consumer advocate. - Take ownership of your assigned
categories’ sales performance – partnering with others in the
company to identify what products are working/not working; and
recommend new product opportunities to fill those gaps. - Lead
competitive product analyses, giving your business partners insight
into how SharkNinja stacks up against the competition - and
maintaining a clear lens on how we can constantly improve to make
Shark the consumer’s top choice every time. - Be the voice of our
legacy product lines: share insights and learnings from consumers
and the market with Product Developers focused on NPD to ensure
critical features and feedback are incorporated into next
generation products. - Partner with SharkNinja Testing and Quality
organizations to define, develop, and manage quality and
performance testing procedures. - Act as the product “expert” for
cross-functional team member questions and concerns. ATTRIBUTES &
SKILLS: - 4-5 years of experience in product development, product
marketing, marketing, human factors engineering, or a related field
– preferable at a consumer goods company. - Bachelor’s Degree (or
equivalent experience) in Business, Marketing, Management,
Engineering, or a combination of the above. - A “100% on”
consumer-first perspective when it comes to introducing new
products/processes or improving current products. - A mindset
geared toward building relationships across multi-functional teams,
coupled with excellent interpersonal skills. - COMMUNICATING FOR
IMPACT, one of SharkNinja’s SUCCESS DRIVERS, is immensely critical
in this role. Highly-effective communication skills – both written
(presentation/email) and face-to-face (ability to host succinct,
effective conversations that solve problems and ability to make
effective presentations to all levels of management) – are
required. - Strong project management skills, with the ability to
prioritize effectively, manage multiple projects simultaneously,
and stay organized in a fast-paced environment. - A desire to learn
and grow in a passionate environment. - The ability to embrace
transparency and shifting priorities while learning from each
decision and focusing on the path forward. Our Culture At
