Are you bready* for a change? (Team Info)

Toast is building a Toast-owned Networking Platform that makes restaurant connectivity secure, performant, and effortless to deploy and support at scale. As Product Manager for Network Engineering, you will drive strategy and execution across our managed networking stack (Pronto, Meraki, UniFi) and partner deeply with Engineering, Hardware Ops, Care/Onboarding, and Security & Compliance to deliver platform capabilities that improve restaurant uptime, accelerate onboarding, and reduce operational burden.

A day in the life (Responsibilities)

• Product strategy & roadmap for Toast-managed networking across hardware, firmware, dashboards, observability, and support tooling
• Owning the end-to-end connectivity experiences and building the next generation management tools for Toast networking devices
• Discover customer pain points and unmet needs and drive for high quality feature requests
• Develop Product Requirements Documents to drive hardware development, as well as communicate feature requests to the engineering team in a fast-paced environment
• Deeply understand the competitive landscape and strategize and prioritize resources so we build the best products to win
• Lead by influence. Work closely with the Toast product, UX, engineering and operations teams to support business needs, develop business case, justify the ROI, and owning the product roadmap
