Principal Product Manager, Devices Engineering

Life360's mission is to keep people close to the ones they love. Our category-leading mobile app and Tile tracking devices empower members to protect the people, pets, and things they care about most with a range of services, including location sharing, safe driver reports, and crash detection with emergency dispatch. Life360 serves approximately 88 million monthly active users (MAU), as of June 2025 across more than 180 countries.

Life360 delivers peace of mind and enhances everyday family life with seamless coordination for all the moments that matter, big and small. By continuing to innovate and deliver for our customers, we have become a household name and the must-have mobile-based membership for families (and those friends that basically are family).

Life360 is a remote-first company, which means a remote work environment will be the primary experience for all employees. All positions, unless otherwise specified, can be performed remotely (within the US) regardless of any specified location above.

The Devices team at Life360 is responsible for building the connected hardware experiences that connect our families to people, pets, and things. We combine electrical, mechanical, firmware, and product design expertise to create delightful, reliable, and scalable products that bring peace of mind to millions of families.

The Principal Product Manager, Devices Engineering will play a critical role in shaping the future of connected devices at Life360. This PM will drive customer discovery to inform research and development of next-generation hardware experiences and will work to bring those experiences to life. As part of the Devices organization, this role will collaborate closely with hardware engineering, design, firmware, and operations to build new devices and to accelerate innovation across Life360's device portfolio. The US-based salary range for this position is $178,500 to $261,500. We take into consideration an individual's background and experience in determining final salary - therefore, base pay offered may vary considerably depending on geographic location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. The compensation package includes a wide range of medical, dental, vision, financial, and other benefits, as well as equity.

What You'll Do

This role requires creating and executing on new hardware devices. This person needs to be able to :

  • Manage a full product vertical or many product verticals (pets, aging in place etc.) through the full lifecycle of the product(s).
  • Identify customer needs and pain points, develop a compelling vision to solve for their needs, develop a roadmap for their products, and execute deeply.
  • Work cross functionally to deliver compelling customer value.
  • Work across marketing, sales, operations, and more to ensure an end to end growth strategy that goes beyond product development to also consider go-to-market.
  • Own the metrics of their product line across customer centric KPIs, margin, revenue, subscription impact, and any other metrics relevant to the success of the product portfolio.
  • Work with HW and SW teams across the technology stack to make smart trade off decisions, develop comprehensive requirements, develop a compelling UX, and to prioritize work.
  • Evangelize the vision for their product, and be the voice of the customer for all aspects of the product experience.

What We're Looking For

  • 10+ years of product management experience, including 4+ years leading hardware or connected device products from concept to launch
  • Proven success managing full product lifecycles from customer discovery and roadmap creation through go-to-market and ongoing optimization
  • Strong understanding of both hardware and software development processes, including firmware, mobile app integration, and manufacturing considerations
  • Experience defining product vision and strategy grounded in customer insights, data, and business objectives
  • Ability to synthesize complex trade-offs between user experience, cost, schedule, and technical constraints
  • Demonstrated skill collaborating with cross-functional teams including engineering, design, operations, marketing, and finance
  • Analytical mindset with experience owning KPIs such as margin, attach rate, retention, or subscription conversion
  • Excellent communication and storytelling skills able to evangelize product vision across internal and external audiences
  • Comfort operating at both strategic and tactical levels; can move fluidly from long-term roadmap thinking to day-to-day execution details
  • Experience in fast-paced, high-growth environments; able to lead through ambiguity and drive clarity across teams
  • Passion for Life360's mission to keep families connected, safe, and supported through technology
  • Our Benefits

  • Competitive pay and benefits
  • Medical, dental, vision, life and disability insurance plans (100% paid for employees)
  • 401(k) plan with company matching program
  • Mental Wellness Program & Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for mental well being
  • Flexible PTO, 13 company-wide days off throughout the year
  • Winter and Summer Weeklong Synchronized Company Shutdowns
  • Learning & Development programs
  • Equipment, tools, and reimbursement support for a productive remote environment
  • Free Life360 Platinum Membership for your preferred circle
  • Free Tile Products
  • Life360 Values
