Hubble Network was founded with the intention of delivering on the promise of what Internet-of-Things (IoT) was supposed to be. We're building a global Bluetooth network dedicated to machine-to-machine connectivity. We differentiate ourselves as the first modem-less and gateway-less, direct-to-satellite network from off-the-shelf BLE chips. Hubble is ideal for applications in logistics, AgTech, and maritime where economies of scale for volume consumer and enterprise asset tracking is a priority. Our goal is to be the first billion-endpoint-connected network in the world.
Hubble is an early-stage, venture-backed startup supported by some of the best investors in the world. In their previous lives, the founding team has been successful in raising $100s of millions in venture funding, developing the Amazon Sidewalk network, launching billions of dollars of space assets, and leading their teams to successful exits, both through acquisition and IPO. We are now looking to bring on talented team members who are the best at what they do to help us make Hubble a reality for the world.
As a Technical Product Manager for Developer Tools & APIs at Hubble Network, you will be the driving force behind creating an exceptional experience for developers building on our platform. You will champion the developer experience, ensuring that embedded engineers and developers worldwide can seamlessly adopt and integrate Hubble's SDKs into their devices.This role combines product management with hands-on developer advocacy, community engagement, and content creation.
This is an ON-SITE (Hybrid) Full-Time Position.
