About the role
- RADAR has raised over $104M from top investors, retailers, and strategics and works with some of the world's retail brands including American Eagle and Gap.
- From real-time inventory tracking to seamless checkout experiences, our technology empowers some of the world's largest retailers to streamline operations, reduce loss, and elevate both employee and customer experiences.
- Join us as we reshape the physical world with digital precision, starting with retail and expanding far beyond!
Responsibilities
- Define the integration model for third-party hardware that supports program enablement: RFID printers, POS systems, and peripheral devices that feed or depend on RADAR's sensing data
- Define API standards and data contracts that downstream retailer systems (WMS, OMS, ERP, POS) can build against reliably, and manage versioning and deprecation in a way that doesn't break active integrations
- Drive platform reliability from a product perspective, defining uptime expectations, degraded-mode behavior, alerting standards, and the accountability model for incidents that affect live retail environments
- Own the roadmap for product capabilities that use RADAR's real-time inventory and sensing data to improve the in-store shopper experience, including self-checkout enablement, frictionless returns, fitting room workflows, and in-store shopper analytics
- Drive the shopper analytics product, defining what behavioral signals RADAR's platform can surface (dwell, zone traffic, conversion patterns) and how retailers can act on them through existing CRM, marketing, and operations systems
- Own requirements for ML-driven detection features (motion classification, exit event detection, shopper behavior inference), including evaluation criteria, accuracy thresholds, edge case handling, and the retailer-facing data format
- Manage the tradeoff between ML inference quality, latency constraints, and the configuration flexibility retailers need to deploy these features across varied store formats
- Partner daily with engineering on scope, sequencing, and technical tradeoffs; this role requires genuine technical fluency, not just facilitation
- Collaborate with commercial teams to ensure roadmap sequencing supports active retailer commitments and near-term pipeline
- Ability to evaluate technical tradeoffs and have substantive conversations with engineering about system design, data contracts, and infrastructure constraints
Requirements
- reduce time-to-go-live by improving self-serve configuration tooling, simplifying the integration surface, and reducing the custom engineering work required for each new deployment
- Have identified the metrics and reporting gaps that limit the team's ability to track progress, and have a plan to address them
Nice to have
- 10+ years of overall professional experience, with 5+ years in a product management role
- Demonstrated ownership of a technical B2B product, with platform, API, or integration scope preferred
- Experience taking data-driven or ML-adjacent features from problem definition to production, including defining evaluation criteria and managing model feedback cycles
- Strong written communication
- Track record of operating independently across multiple concurrent workstreams
- Experience in retail technology, supply chain, or domains where physical-world sensor data feeds digital systems
- Familiarity with RFID, IoT, or hardware-adjacent sensing platforms
- Experience defining product metrics in environments where attribution across physical and digital channels is complex
Skills
- POS integration, retailer mobile apps, clienteling tools, and retargeting infrastructure
- Cross-Functional Partnership
- Produce clear written artifacts (specs, decision memos, tradeoff analyses)
