Product Manager – Product Development, Quality

Role Overview

• You support the (further) development of our products from the initial idea through sampling and supplier management to a successful market launch — data-driven, hands-on and always with the Funzy target group in mind.
• At the same time, you ensure that quality, product data and compliance are correct: from certificates and CE documentation to compliance with relevant EU regulations and standards across the entire supply chain.
• Product development and product optimization: You identify new product ideas and categories through thorough market, trend and competitor research and translate them into concrete concepts that fit Funzy.
• You manage the entire product development process: from briefing, material selection and sampling through testing to market launch.
• You analyze customer feedback in a data-driven way (return reasons, support tickets, reviews, user-generated content photos/videos) and derive concrete optimization measures.
• You work closely with suppliers, resolve quality and product issues pragmatically and implement improvements directly.
• You define and maintain product specifications (dimensions, materials, components, packaging) and ensure a clean handover to Operations/Logistics.
• Quality management and product data maintenance: You are responsible for our certificate management (e.g. TÜV, OEKO-TEX, possibly GS): documentation, expiry dates, renewals and coordination with partners.
• You prepare and maintain CE declarations of conformity and coordinate testing with external test laboratories and suppliers.
• You ensure compliance with relevant EU regulations and standards (including REACH, product safety, relevant EN standards; ideally in the context of ISO 9001).
• You maintain and are responsible for product master data: technical data, safety instructions, care instructions, materials, test reports and documentation.

Requirements

• Degree in Business Administration, Supply Chain Management or a comparable qualification.
• At least 2–3 years of experience in purchasing, product development, product management or category management, ideally in a similar position.
• Preferably experience in consumer goods (ideally furniture, textiles, Home & Living).
• Startup fit: You feel comfortable with pace, shifting priorities and imperfect processes — and you build structure where it helps most.
• Hands-on mentality and strong ownership: you drive topics proactively, solve problems pragmatically and bring things to a clean conclusion.
• Very good understanding of quality, product safety and compliance in the EU (e.g. CE, relevant EN standards, REACH; certificates such as TÜV/OEKO-TEX/GS are a plus).
• Negotiation skills and convincing communication abilities.
• Strong analytical thinking and a structured working style.
• Enthusiasm for innovative products and trends.
• Fluent German and English.
