At the heart of Hervanta, Tampere, our skilled and warm-hearted team of 60 professionals creates products that are known for their top performance and high quality.

Are you our new Project Manager ready to take on the challenge?
The role in a nutshell:
High quality products from idea to mass production
As the Project Manager, you’ll play a key role in turning innovative ideas into production-ready products – not just supervising timelines but truly enabling the project team’s success from concept to manufacturing. While you won’t be working alone, you will have plenty of ownership in how projects are run. You’ll collaborate with a broad group of top-tier specialists in mechanics, electronics, software, and supply chain management – adapting your approach to different personalities and ensuring everyone has what they need to deliver. We are working on parallel development projects, and your work will focus on leading new product initiatives – including e.g. pedals and steering wheels – while supporting ongoing efforts where needed. Our teams are driven by technical excellence and curiosity, so strong communication and prioritization skills are key. You'll help the team balance technical ambition with timelines, guide decision-making, and promote good practices like documentation and structured progress.
Your team
You will be part of our R&D operational management team, which ensures smooth operation and growth by overseeing project initiation, resource allocation, and process development, while also supporting developers, fostering innovation, managing risks, and promoting team well-being. Your close colleagues in the team will be
Thomas, Program Manager. Thomas drives cross-functional coordination from project kick-off to production, while supporting the team by overseeing the project portfolio, resources, and dependencies. Thomas is also the top mileage cyclist in the company.
