Compensation: Salary range $135k-$165k
About Inovonics
Inovonics builds enterprise grade wireless sensor networks and software for life safety and security systems in demanding environments. For over 40 years, our 900 MHz wireless technology has helped protect people, property, and critical operations across senior living communities, healthcare campuses, schools, retail sites, and other commercial facilities. We have shipped more than 25 million devices worldwide.
We are in the middle of a deliberate transformation: moving from a hardware component provider to a complete solutions company. That means building a software platform, cloud integrations, and AI-driven capabilities alongside our wireless hardware. This role sits at the center of that shift. Inovonics is a wholly owned subsidiary of Roper Technologies (NYSE: ROP).
The Role
We are looking for a Software Product Manager who can guide our software engineering team with clarity and technical credibility. This is not a role for someone who will hand requirements over the wall and hope for the best. You will be embedded in the day-to-day work of the team: running sprint ceremonies, owning the backlog, writing requirements that engineers can act on, and making product decisions that hold up under scrutiny.
The right candidate has a software engineering or technical background and has moved into product management because they want to shape what gets built, not just how it gets built. You understand system architecture well enough to know when a proposal does not fit, and you are willing to say so. You write requirements you have thoroughly reviewed and own the outcomes that follow.
What You Will Own
Day to day software team leadership
- Own the product backlog and sprint planning for the software engineering team
- Write and maintain requirements that are accurate, scoped, and actionable
- Run Agile ceremonies and serve as the primary product voice to engineering
- Manage trade-off decisions between scope, quality, and timeline in real time
- Report sprint progress to executive leadership
- Work with customer-facing teams and market focused Product Managers to triage requests and manage communication related to software releases
Software roadmap and platform strategy
- Define the “What”, “Why”, and “When” of what the software team builds.
- Own the software and cloud platform roadmap, including API integrations and third-party partnerships
- Ensure roadmap initiatives have well defined software requirements before engineering picks them up
- Partner with hardware and market focused product managers to identify what software can realistically deliver, surface revenue opportunities, and align software commitments to system level plans.
- Maintain visibility into technical dependencies and surface risks early
AI product direction
- Provide product leadership for Inovonics' AI capabilities, including our dealer facing AI assistant and AI driven monitoring features
- Translate the engineering team's AI and ML capabilities into a committed, realistic roadmap
- Identify where AI creates genuine product value versus where it adds complexity without payoff
- Work with commercial and customer facing teams to validate AI use cases before committing engineering resources
What Success Looks Like in Year One
- The engineering team trusts your requirements and does not spend cycles reworking stories because of gaps or inaccuracies
- The software backlog is clean, prioritized, and current
- Roadmap projects have software requirements captured and ready before they enter sprint planning
- A clear, defensible AI roadmap exists with prioritized use cases tied to business outcomes
- You are operating independently and are the recognized product leader for the software team
What We Are Looking For
Required
- Background in software engineering, computer science, or a related technical discipline
- Hands on experience running Agile development: sprint planning, backlog management, story writing, and retrospectives
- Demonstrated ability to write detailed, accurate product requirements that engineering teams can execute without constant clarification
- Ability to engage in architectural conversations and recognize when a proposal does not fit the existing system
- Experience owning a SaaS or cloud platform product end-to-end
- Comfort with ambiguity and the ability to make and defend product decisions with incomplete information
Strongly preferred
- 5+ years of product management experience with a software or engineering foundation
- Experience with IoT, connected hardware, or embedded systems products
- Familiarity with physical security, life safety, or building automation markets
- Experience shipping AI or ML powered product features; practical understanding of what AI systems can and cannot do
- Experience with API platform products and third-party integration ecosystems
Personal qualities that matter for this role
- You own your outputs. If you put a requirement in front of engineering, you have read it, pressure tested it, and stand behind it
- You know what you do not know and say so
- You earn credibility through rigor, not title
- You can move between strategic and operational work in the same day without losing focus
Location and Work Model
This position is based in Westminster, Colorado. We work in a hybrid model with 3-4 days per week on site. Westminster sits within the Denver/Boulder tech corridor, approximately 15 miles northwest of Denver.
Inovonics values diversity of thought and background and provides equal employment opportunity to all qualified applicants without regard to race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, veteran status, or disability.

The depth and breadth of our research empowers us to place attorneys at rates that are unparalleled at any placement firm in the United States. Many of our recruiters make 30 to 40 placements per year, while recruiters at competitor firms are likely to make four or five. Unlike other placement firms that can only tell you about openings at major AmLaw firms, we place candidates of all backgrounds in firms of all sizes. While other legal recruiters only represent a narrow band of candidates from top law firms and top law schools, our research, firm contacts, and market insight allow us to place hundreds of candidates each year who do not fit this mold. It is rare that we do not get candidates we represent interviews and offers. No one in the world is better at legal recruiting and placement than BCG Attorney Search.
BCG Attorney Search will confidentially review your application and will not forward your materials to the firm without first discussing the opportunity with you.
