Position Overview: This is a hands-on, leadership quality and product excellence role focused on new product development. This role is at the intersection of consumer satisfaction, product quality, and commercialization.

You will own the 5-star standard from the earliest stages of development through to launch readiness, embedding yourself in NPD programs to ensure that what SharkNinja ships is safe, certified, consumer-validated, and set up to succeed in market. Product Excellence’s mandate is simple: every product SharkNinja ships should earn and sustain 5 stars. Today, that standard is not universally met, and the path to achieving it requires a team who will champion the consumer, challenge the organization, and hold the line on excellence with no compromise.

You will stand for the consumer voice in every cross-functional conversation, push Product Development, Marketing and Engineering to act on improvements to design, resolving identified risk, and ensure the commercial and operational levers lead to a High Rate of Sale and consumer satisfaction in home You will work across Engineering, Product Development, and the broader Product Excellence organization — surfacing risks early, running predictive modelling against consumer validation data, lessons learned, market data, and driving the structured testing, regulatory, and DFMEA processes that underpin every launch. Your job is to make sure issues are found before the consumer does, and that every product leaving the NPD pipeline earns its 5 stars.

Consumer delight is your beacon, and we stop at nothing to deliver for the consumer. You report into the VP, In-Market Product Quality & Customer Excellence and work in close partnership with Engineering and Product Development leads across the NPD portfolio.
