Job Opening: Head of Products / Tech

Own what the station does — and everything around it.

Ecoworks builds reuse infrastructure. The way products are delivered to consumers is broken — single-use by default, wasteful by design. We’re changing the delivery model itself, not just the packaging. We’re early. We’re hiring people who want to build this with us.

Key Responsibilities

Hardware & Firmware

  • Own the station hardware roadmap: enclosure, pumps, flow sensors, valves, payment terminals.
  • Work with manufacturing partners on iteration and production.
  • Write or oversee firmware for microcontroller-based station logic.
  • Reusable bottle system: work with design and manufacturing partners on payment-integrated bottle hardware — NFC, QR, or equivalent — connecting physical product to digital transaction layer.

Software & Data

  • Build and maintain the telemetry and monitoring layer (station health, usage, alerts).
  • Own payment rails integration and transaction reliability.
  • Light customer-facing software: loyalty mechanic, usage data, refill history.

Product Decisions

  • Translate unit economics and field observations into product priorities.
  • Sit close enough to operations to know what’s actually breaking.

Ideal Candidate

  • Comfortable across hardware and software — not necessarily expert in both, but not intimidated by either.
  • Has shipped something physical or embedded: a hardware project, an IoT device, a vending or dispensing system.
  • Familiar with microcontrollers (ESP32, Arduino, or similar), basic CAD, and payment integrations.
  • Experience or strong interest in connected physical products (NFC/RFID, IoT-linked consumer goods).
  • Bonus: experience with vibe coding or rapid prototyping workflows.

Why Join

  • Full-stack product ownership at a company deploying physical infrastructure at scale.
  • Equity-significant package at early-team stage.
  • Real hardware problems, not simulated ones.
