Product Manager - Consumer Application 🔥


We know what you’re thinking, “ughhh … how interesting could thermostats be?” Believe us when we say that we are convinced that thermostats are a critical tool in the fight against climate change. Here’s why:

- Heating and cooling accounts for as much as 60% of a home’s energy usage 🤯 

- Adding something as simple as a schedule can reduce energy consumption by up to 26% 😏

- BUT … even when a homeowner has a programmable thermostat, 70% of them don’t have a schedule 😖 

Try programming one without a manual 🤓 and you’ll start from scratch after a power outage 😤Imagine the savings possible with Mysa’s lineup of smart thermostats for baseboard and infloor heat and now for air conditioners and mini splits! 🦸‍♀️ As you’re reading this, 10s of thousands of users are depending on our App to control 100’s of thousands of Mysa thermostats. With an average rating of more than 4.5 stars we know that our products and platform are on the right track -- we also know we have lots more work to do. 

We are looking for a Product Manager for our Consumer App to join our Product team in St. John’s, NL, or remotely!

The Mysa App is the primary point of contact between our customers, their Mysa hardware products, and the company. Mysa’s App is the tool used to set up and connect our thermostats, set schedules, review energy usage, and operate the customer’s thermostats. 

The primary goal of this position is to continuously learn from our customers to develop and maintain a product roadmap and backlog for the Mysa App, ensuring alignment throughout the team and establishing what success looks like.



What You Will Do:

  • Meet with customers directly and through customer facing teams to collect and analyze user feedback to shape new product ideas and user requirements.
  • Support development of core product features within our consumer facing application while working with dynamic cross-functional teams. You will maintain and prioritize product scope, create documentation for development, marketing and customer support teams, and review completed work providing continuous feedback.
  • Work closely with the engineering department, marketing/growth, customer support, and other departments to ensure successful delivery of product features into the market. Principally, you will be responsible for creating story based documentation for development teams and supporting its execution.
  • Monitor smart home, home HVAC, and mobile device trends to identify and understand potential product and feature opportunities. Additionally, working with the product team, use these insights to steer product feature implementation and prioritization.
  • Work throughout the Mysa team in order to align prioritization, maximize resource utilization, and help ensure the development of products our customers will love.
  • Support the implementation of product and feature usage tracking and analyze patterns to identify new product feature opportunities and validate success of feature rollouts.



Who You Are:

  • Degree/Diploma in Engineering or other technical discipline, or equivalent demonstrable experience
  • Minimum 2 years experience in a product management role (or equivalent). Preference will be given to those with experience building consumer-facing digital products.
  • Genuine and intense customer focus.
  • History of teamwork and willingness to roll up one's sleeves to get the job done.
  • You’re very familiar with consumer facing app development for iOS and Android. Familiarity with Smart Home platforms and products would be considered an asset.
  • You thrive on the challenge associated with converting broad customer feedback into detailed and prioritized product or feature requirements. You understand how to communicate in a detail oriented and technical way and quickly identify and think through the possible situations that might break a proposed solution.
  • Ability to quickly absorb technical concepts and communicate them to a non-technical audience.
  • Ability to think strategically and creatively while executing methodically with high attention to detail, operational excellence and an ability to multitask.
  • Ability to lead and influence teams towards a measured outcome you’ve clearly described.
  • Have strong solution skills in translating customer needs to product functionalities.
