As a Technical Project Manager, you'll bridge technical and design teams, manage project schedules, and ensure clear communication throughout product development.
Who we are
Nothing exists to make tech feel exciting again.
We’re building a different kind of company, one that puts design, emotion, and human creativity at the heart of everything we do. From the way our products look to how they sound, feel, and function, we care about the details that make technology not just useful, but inspiring.
This is a place for the curious. The creators. The ones who ask why not and mean it. If you're drawn to bold ideas, fast moves, and work that actually makes you feel something, you’ll fit right in.
We're not here to follow the rules. We're here to make better ones.
About Nothing
Founded in London in 2020, Nothing is a design-led tech company building an alternative to the industry giants. Our products – from award-winning smartphones to expressive audio and wearables – blend iconic design with intuitive engineering to put people and creativity back at the centre of consumer tech.
Backed by GV (Google Ventures), EQT Ventures, C Ventures, and influential investors like Tony Fadell (iPod), Casey Neistat, and Kevin Lin (Twitch), we’ve grown from startup to global challenger in just a few years.
As a Technical Project Manager at Nothing, you'll be central to bridging the gap between our technical and design teams and the wider business. You'll be embedded within the Industrial Design Team, working from our small design studio in King's Cross, London, alongside designers, creative technologists and engineers to invent, prototype and ship the technology of the future.
This is a role that requires a blend of technical expertise, project management skills, and exceptional collaboration qualities. You'll be happy to negotiate and not afraid to challenge pre-existing processes in this fast-paced environment. You'll be self-motivated and proactive in managing tasks under pressure, and with an appreciation for the importance of design, will represent and defend the team’s vision at every stage of the process.

What you need to know about the Belfast Tech Scene
If asked to name the birthplace of the RMS Titanic, you might not say Belfast. Similarly, if asked to name Europe's leading destination for foreign direct investment in new software development, Belfast might not come to mind. Yet, both are true. The city has emerged as a tech powerhouse, recently ranked among the best in the U.K. for tech careers — especially for software developers. It also leads the U.K. with the highest percentage of software development jobs advertised.
