About the Role

The Company is seeking a Vice President of Product & Design to establish and lead an integrated product and engineering organization. The role owns the product lifecycle from market insight and concept development through commercialization and in-market performance, while shaping portfolio strategy, technology roadmaps, and innovation priorities. Responsibilities include building a disciplined product lifecycle framework, strengthening engineering standards and new product development, and aligning teams across design, operations, quality, sales, and finance. The executive will also oversee product performance, financial outcomes, development execution, and performance metrics while leading organizational transformation. Candidates should have 15 or more years of progressive leadership experience across product management, engineering, and product development, including success leading product lifecycles in manufacturing and building or transforming product and engineering organizations. Experience implementing lifecycle or stage-gate systems at scale, influencing revenue and margin performance, and leading multidisciplinary engineering teams is required. Applicants should bring expertise in portfolio strategy, new product development, program management, financial analysis, and translating customer and market insights into successful physical products. Relevant experience may come from firearms or related fields, or from highly engineered, regulated, or adjacent commercial industries; strong cross-functional leadership and change-management capabilities are essential.
