About the role

About Seam

Seam builds an API for controlling IoT devices, such as door locks,
thermostats, sensors, cameras, and more. Software developers and
businesses then use Seam's API to connect devices with their
applications and orchestrate their use. This lets them unlock doors
for Airbnb guests or FedEx drivers, set thermostat temperatures to
save energy and measure carbon emissions, and more.

The company was founded by early engineers from Nest, Github, Sonder,
and Google. Based in San Francisco, Seam is backed by Tiger Global,
Root Ventures, YC, and founders/execs from companies like Stripe,
Plaid, Flexport, Airbnb, and many others.

About the Role

We are looking for a founding product manager with both technical and
business chops. Prior API company experience is a strong plus, but
not a hard requirement. However, ability to understand technical
requirement and code is a must.

In this role, you will be tasked with doing deep dive into specific
business verticals that Seam can enter, and then research device
categories that Seam should support. You will then develop and lead
the strategy for adding those device integrations. You will also have
responsibility for our developer and operator facing products
(dashboard, developer console...etc) as well as one off specialty
projects.

*This role is San Francisco based. We are not looking for remote
candidates at the moment.

Qualifications:

  * 3+ years of experience as a Product Manager, preferably in the
    API industry or related field
  * Strong technical background and understanding of software
    development processes
  * Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the
    ability to work effectively with cross-functional teams
  * Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a data-driven
    approach to decision-making

Preferred Qualifications:

  * Prior experience working at growth stage private companies
  * You're excited to work in spaces that don't have obvious answers

About Seam

Seam is an API for controlling a wide range of IoT devices.

Today we primarily focus on door lock and access systems. Our
customers span industries, such as hospitality, real-estate, or even
last-mile delivery, and range in sieze from startups-in-garage to
public companies.

Across the board, their goal is the same: use code to control
hardware devices, and orchestrate the physical world.

Our team is made of alums from Nest, Sonder, Stanford, Apple, Latch,
Berkeley, YC, and more. We shipped millions of IoT devices and built
dev tools used by every developer on earth. We are advised by the
amazing Bunnie Huang and backed by Tiger Global, Root VC, founders
and execs at Stripe, Plaid, and Airbnb, and other amazing angels and
funds.

About You

We generally seek "sharp minds with kind souls." We prefer
generalists over specialists; we move quickly, with purpose; we enjoy
working with each other and aim to be the best.
