- Hands-on work in a strongly typed language such as TypeScript, Rust, C++, C#, Java, or Go.
- A strong user-focused product mindset, with demonstrated judgment around trade-offs, collaborative problem-solving, and accountability for end-to-end outcomes.
- Experience translating developer needs into clear product requirements, PRDs, and product design documentation.
- Process-driven product work experience across discovery, design, iteration, and release cycles.
- Ability to evaluate technical feasibility, architectural constraints, and engineering trade-offs from a product perspective.
- Experience building or managing developer tooling, such as APIs, SDKs, CLIs, IDE integrations, or infrastructure platforms.
- Exposure to Ethereum protocol, tooling, or developer workflows, with a practical understanding of related infrastructure.
Responsibilities
- Own, execute, and continuously refine the Hardhat and EDR product roadmaps in close collaboration with our CTO, our Head of Engineering, engineering managers, and engineering teams.
- Act as the primary owner of product prioritisation decisions for “what we build next,” weighing developer impact, engineering cost, ecosystem needs, and long-term strategy.
- Act as the primary point of contact for engineers for product and UX guidance during feature development, ensuring consistency and a high quality user experience across our products.
- Take over core product responsibilities currently handled by Head of Engineering and CTO, including writing PRDs and product documentation, structuring feature definitions, and maintaining alignment through regular 1:1s.
- Ensure requirements are technically realistic, clearly scoped, and shaped by an understanding of ecosystem trade-offs and long-term implications.
- Define UX expectations, API behavior, and developer-facing feature design from the developer’s perspective.
- Decide how new functionality should surface (API, CLI, interface, configuration, etc.), ensuring consistency and coherence across Hardhat and EDR.
- Work closely with engineering teams to align on dependencies, sequencing, and trade-offs.
- Autonomously identify the highest-impact problems, improve prioritisation of bugs and feedback, and help unblock development.
- Build strong trust with engineering teams by representing the product perspective clearly, pragmatically, and consistently in both internal and ecosystem-facing conversations.
