Job description

At 1KOMMA5° , we pursue a clear vision: Living on wind and sunlight forever for free . To make this a reality, we are building the energy system of the future with Heartbeat AI. Want to be part of it?

We bring together regional craftsmanship and scalable software: We don't think of solar, batteries, heat pumps, and e-mobility as isolated components, but control them as an intelligent, integrated overall system in our virtual power plant. Directly connected to the electricity market – in real time, fully automated. This way, energy is used when it is available from renewables and particularly cost-effective. By 2030, our goal is to transition 1.5 million households to renewable energies. Over 3,000 people are working towards this every day, at more than 80 locations worldwide, from Finland to Australia.

Deine Position

As Senior Product Manager for Heating & Cooling, you own Heat as a product. What must be true in the household: space heating, hot water, and cooling people can trust, at a cost that makes sense, controlled with Heartbeat.

You decide where Heating & Cooling goes next. Which problems we solve first. How hardware partners, the Energy Management System, and the customer experience add up to one result — in Germany and in the other markets we operate in. You own the problem, the requirements, and the outcomes.

Your main focus will be to:

• Own the product strategy and roadmap for Heating & Cooling: where the area goes, and how it evolves across markets
• Define the customer outcome (comfort, cost, control, reliability) and the KPIs that prove it
• Turn hardware and field constraints into product requirements. Cut work that does not serve the outcome.
• Drive thermal optimization on our Energy Management System
• Align hardware, the Energy Management System, and the customer experience so households get one heat and cooling experience
• Write specs, run discovery, prioritize, and ship

Dein Profil

You have:

• 5+ years of Product Management on hardware-software products, energy, HVAC, or similarly physical systems
