Are you eager and ready to combine your technical expertise and excellent leadership skills into good use for a good cause? If you thrive in a purpose-driven role and are excited about pushing the boundaries of safety technology, we'd love to hear from you

Greetings from your future manager:

  7. You have proven experience in customer pre-sales support
  8. Previous experience in project management and roadmap development
  9. Previous experience with hardware products is seen as an asset
  10. Fluency in English (written and spoken)

What else can we offer you?

Twig & Nav offers impactful work as part of a mission-driven company that creates solutions to protect people both at work and at home, helping to shape a safer and more connected world. You will have the opportunity to work with cutting-edge innovation, using the latest technologies to develop groundbreaking web and mobile services that seamlessly integrate hardware and software. Products combine the physical and digital worlds, allowing you to contribute to a unique blend of atoms and bits by working with smart devices and intelligent services. Twig & Nav fosters a collaborative and supportive team culture, where innovation thrives, ideas are valued, and teamwork drives success. Additionally, the company provides competitive rewards, including a strong compensation package and benefits that recognize your contributions and expertise.

Our ideal candidate would be located in metropolitan Helsinki, as the office is located in Otaniemi. Being able to share time at the office is crucial, even if you are able to work in a hybrid environment. The work includes occasional travel to Salo, where the factory site is located. The final title of the role can be aligned with the chosen candidate's personal experience and preferences (e.g. Head of Services / Head of Technology / Head of Engineering).

The recruitment is done in co-operation between Twig & Nav and Talented. Talented will be handling all of the applications, and will be the one to reach out to each of the candidates. Application period is open until March 30th, 2025. All applicants will be contacted during April 2025.

Together, Twig & Nav combines innovation, engineering excellence, and a strong service-driven approach to create device + service solutions. The goal is to protect people by making the world's best premium quality personal alarms, while steadily increasing profitable device-attached service revenue. All products and services are built in Finland.
