What does a Hardware Product Engineer do?

A Hardware Product Engineer is responsible for designing, developing, testing, and overseeing the production of physical electronic devices or systems. They work on creating hardware components such as circuit boards, processors, and other electronic parts, ensuring they meet performance, quality, and safety standards. These engineers often collaborate with cross-functional teams including software developers, industrial designers, and manufacturing specialists to bring products from concept to market. Their role may also involve troubleshooting hardware issues and improving existing products.

As a Hardware Product Engineer, you will work closely with cross-functional teams such as industrial design, firmware/software engineering, manufacturing, and quality assurance throughout the product development cycle. This collaboration ensures that product specifications are met, design iterations are implemented effectively, and manufacturability is considered from early stages. Regular meetings, design reviews, and coordinated testing are common, requiring strong communication skills and the ability to translate technical requirements across disciplines. This teamwork is essential for launching successful hardware products on time and within budget.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Hardware Product Engineer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Hardware Product Engineer, you need a solid background in electrical or computer engineering, circuit design, and product development, usually backed by a relevant engineering degree. Familiarity with CAD tools (such as Altium Designer or SolidWorks), PCB layout software, and industry certifications like IPC or Six Sigma is often required. Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and effective cross-functional communication help distinguish top performers in this role. These abilities are crucial for developing reliable, innovative hardware products that meet technical specifications, cost targets, and project timelines.

Job description

Description
Join us at Nayax, a global fintech leader (NASDAQ; TASE: NYAX) revolutionizing the world of cashless payments, consumer engagement, and business management solutions. With more than 1,200 employees across 13 offices worldwide. At Nayax, you'll be part of a diverse and innovative community where your work makes a real impact and helps shape the future of payments.
We're after elite talent - a Senior Hardware Product Engineer who can own our hardware roadmap end-to-end and make every market we ship to better for it.
In this role, you'll own the hardware product roadmap across our XLynk and Manufacturing Partner product lines and drive our third-party hardware integrations - no hand-holding, no hedging, just real ownership.
The Senior Hardware Product Engineer reports directly to the Chief Technology Officer, Energy, with direct visibility into the executive team.
This role is based in Schenectady, NY (preferred) - hands-on, where the decisions get made.
This role requires working onsite from our Schenectady, NY office five days per week.
Your key responsibilities will include:
  • Own and drive the product roadmap for the XLynk and Manufacturing Partner hardware lines - set the direction, don't just follow it
  • Own our 3rd-party hardware profile outright - the catalog of approved vendors, technical specs, and integration/certification status across every hardware partner we work with, kept sharp and current
  • Define and manage global hardware requirements - you decide what hardware works, and can be sold, in which markets, and defend that call
  • Partner cross-functionally with engineering, sales, and compliance to align hardware strategy with market and customer needs - and push back when it doesn't
  • Own hardware compliance and certification requirements across every territory we operate in - no market gets overlooked, no regulation gets missed as things shift
  • Own integration testing across our hardware and third-party partners - you validate it works in the real world before it ever reaches a customer, not after

Requirements
What Makes You a Great Fit
  • Real industry experience in EV charging, IoT hardware, or unattended-payment hardware - not adjacent, actual
  • A track record of owning a hardware product roadmap end-to-end and having the scars to prove it
  • Genuine comfort working across global markets, including hardware compliance/certification considerations that vary by region

Nice-to-Have Skills
  • Direct experience with third-party OEM or vendor hardware integration
  • Background specifically in EV charging or energy hardware
  • Familiarity with regional hardware certification regimes (e.g. FCC, CE, RCM)

Compensation and Benefits
  • The base salary range for this position is $90,000-$120,000 per year
  • Eligibility for an annual performance bonus and additional benefits.
  • Final compensation will be determined based on experience and qualifications.

Why Join Nayax
  • Take ownership of hardware products that power real-world EV charging and payment solutions used across global markets.
  • Work directly with executive leadership and have a visible impact on product strategy, market expansion, and customer success.
  • Lead hardware decisions end-to-end, from roadmap definition and compliance strategy to integration and deployment.
  • Collaborate with industry experts across engineering, product, sales, and operations in a fast-growing technology environment.
  • Join a global fintech and commerce technology leader where innovation, accountability, and execution drive meaningful results.
