Job description
View all jobs Technical Project Manager - Camera Products Kirkland, WA HQ Product Hybrid Full-time At Wyze, we make smart home technology accessible to everyone. We're known for disrupting markets with high-quality, affordable products-from cameras to lighting to sensors and more. We believe technology should simplify life, not complicate it. We're a fast-moving, customer-obsessed team driven by curiosity and powered by data.
The Opportunity Wyze cameras reach millions of homes-and behind every launch is a tightly coordinated effort across teams in the U.S. and China. This role sits at the intersection of hardware and software delivery. As Technical Project Manager here at Wyze, you are tasked to be the hub of that intersection - turning product decisions and development milestones into clear plans, coordinated execution, and on-time releases. In this role, you'll own launch execution for camera hardware, help drive critical camera software initiatives, and modernize how we run projects using AI-enabled workflows. If you are fluent in hardware development lifecycles, energized by ambiguity, comfortable operating across cultures and timezones, and excited to make a distributed execution feel effortless, we'd love to talk.
What You'll Do Drive camera product launches end-to-end
Own integrated launch plans that connect China-based development with U.S. launch readiness.
Track timelines, dependencies, risks, and decisions from concept to shelf.
Coordinate sample distribution, marketing, retail, CX, legal/finance review, and operational handoffs.
Run launch meetings that produce clear decisions and owners - not just notes.
Support camera software delivery
Partner with product, firmware, app, cloud, AI, and platform teams to move key software initiatives from planning to release.
Manage the interface between hardware stage gates and software sprint cadences - keeping software teams unblocked when hardware dependencies shift.
Support sprint planning, dependency tracking, release readiness, and beta feedback loops.
Keep ownership and timelines visible across distributed teams.
Monitor project health - milestone completion, schedule variance, blockers, issue trends - and surface what matters.
Build AI-enabled workflows that scale
Use AI tools to cut manual coordination: Meeting summaries, action tracking, risk roll-ups, beta synthesis, launch readiness updates, decision logs.
Create repeatable templates, dashboards, scorecards, and operating rhythms.
Turn scattered information across meetings, chats, and trackers into actionable intelligence.
Iterate on process based on retros and stakeholder feedback.
What You'll Bring
Hardware Experiences - Required. This means direct experience managing or coordinating consumer hardware, IoT, robotics, connected devices, or embedded systems development.
Working knowledge of hardware NPI process: You know what EVT, DVT, and PVT mean in practice, not just on paper.
Comfort being hands-on with physical devices: Running workflows on hardware, validating device behavior, understanding the difference between a firmware issue and a software issue.
3+years in technical project management, program management, or hardware/software project management.
Proven experience working with distributed teams; experience with China-based teams strongly preferred.
Strong execution chops: project planning, dependency management, risk tracking, and driving accountability through indirect influence.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to translate complex technical and cross-functional .issues into clear, actionable updates for product, engineering, business, and leadership audiences.
Hands-on experience with Jira, Confluence, or similar tools.
Demonstrated ability to apply AI tools and automation to improve project execution, documentation quality, communication efficiency, and cross-functional coordination.
Willingness to flex working hours several days per week to overlap with China time zones.
Fluency in Mandarin Chinese and English (written and spoken) required. Daily collaboration with teams in China is a given.
Nice to Have
Experience coordinating launches across globally distributed teams.
Background in camera technology, computer vision, or home security product categories.
What Success Looks Like
Launch plans are clear, current, and trusted by both U.S. and China teams and become more predictable and repeatable over time.
Camera software initiatives have unambiguous ownership, visibility, and cross-team coordination.
The interface between hardware stage gates and software sprints is actively managed - no one is blocked by a dependency they didn't see coming.
AI-enabled workflows measurably reduce manual follow-up and sharpen visibility into project health.
Compensation
The base pay range for this role is $118,000 – $152,000 per year.
