That’s why we are passionate about making high-quality pet accessories that are as beautiful as they are functional. And, every order helps a pup in need: since launch, we are proud to have provided over 500,000 pounds of food to rescue shelters. Our products are available at www.thefoggydog.com and in over 1,000 brick-and-mortar retailers. We are a small (but mighty!) female-founded team based in San Francisco. As a family-owned business, we are invested in finding the best people to join our tightly knit team. We are looking for candidates who thrive in a creative, energetic, data-driven environment and share our values of collaboration, communication, and positivity. This role is an exciting opportunity to make a huge impact at a fast-growing ecommerce company. Overview: The Senior Manager of Product for Hard Lines & Technical Wear owns end-to-end product development for Hard Lines (hardware, plastics, charms, ID tags) and Technical Wear (harnesses, leashes), our categories with the highest compliance and safety requirements. The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, resourceful, and proactive in identifying and solving quality, safety, and development roadblocks before they impact the business. Beyond technical expertise, this person will own vendor relationships, timelines, and cross-functional partnership with Design, Marketing, and Planning for these product categories. This role requires someone who deeply understands how hardware, webbing, and plastics perform (and fail) under real-world stress and safety-critical use, and who brings that rigor to every product decision.

Qualifications: - 8-10+ years of product development experience in categories where hardware, webbing, straps, or plastics must perform reliably under real stress or safety-critical conditions. - Deep, hands-on understanding of hardware and strap/webbing systems: how they're constructed, tested, and how they fail under load. Or equivalent expertise in small-parts safety and plastics/hardware engineering for products used by children or pets. - Track record managing overseas vendors and tooling from concept to launch. - Strong cross-functional project management skills. - Exceptional attention to detail. - Experience partnering closely with quality and compliance stakeholders. - Background in outdoor/technical gear, technical pet products, or juvenile/baby products is strongly preferred To Apply: To apply, please submit your resume and a cover letter to careers@thefoggydog.com with “Senior Manager of Product for Hard Lines & Technical Wear” in the subject line.
