About the role

The FSQ Technical Product Manager (TPM) is a technical, cross-functional leader responsible for ensuring that all new and existing products meet food safety, quality, and regulatory requirements from early development through commercialization and into ongoing production.
A TPM bridges the gap between new product ideation and execution - coordinating subject matter expert input from Operations, Quality, and Regulatory functions and translating product concepts into compliant, scalable, and technically sound solutions that protect the brand and accelerate launch readiness.

Partner with R&D to evaluate potential issues during new product launches; lead root-cause analysis and corrective actions for quality or regulatory issues related to product design.
Own the technical project plan for products, ensuring milestones, risks, and dependencies are clearly managed; leverage deep technical understanding to guide teams on feasibility, complexity, and resource allocation.
Drive continuous improvement in product development processes, documentation, and cross-functional communication.
Act as the 'voice of FSQ' within product teams, ensuring compliance is integrated - not retrofitted; build strong relationships across departments to accelerate decision-making and resolve technical challenges.
Identify and proactively manage compliance or quality risks early in the product lifecycle, driving solutions before they impact launch readiness.
Perform additional duties as assigned.
We're everyday people who deliver extraordinary results.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to use data to drive decisions.
