About Bells of Steel Inc.

At Bells of Steel, our mission is to make fitness and strength training approachable, affordable, and fun. We design and manufacture high-quality strength and exercise equipment for home gym owners and fitness professionals, helping people of all experience levels achieve their goals.

We’re not your typical fitness equipment brand. We’re down-to-earth, a little cheeky, and focused on making fitness more rewarding and less intimidating. If you enjoy a fast-paced, no-BS environment and want to help shape the future of strength training, you’ll fit right in.

Our Core Values: A.C.T.

Adaptability – Raise the Bar
We challenge the status quo, learn quickly, and continuously improve. We embrace change, seek better ways of working, and take initiative to drive results.

Customer Centricity – Always Spot the Customer
Everything we do is focused on helping our customers succeed. We lead with empathy, build trust through action, and create value for both external and internal customers.

Teamwork – We Win Together
We operate with honesty, transparency, trust, and respect. We collaborate openly, take shared ownership of outcomes, and succeed as a team.

As we continue to grow, we're looking for a Director of Product to own the future of our product portfolio.

This is a strategic leadership role responsible for deciding what products we build, why we build them, and how our product portfolio evolves over the coming years.

You'll own our product strategy, roadmap, innovation pipeline, and product portfolio performance. You'll work closely with our founder, engineering, sourcing, product development, marketing, customer service, sales, and operations to ensure we're building products customers genuinely love—and that they make great business sense.

You'll lead the Product team while balancing customer needs, manufacturing realities, commercial objectives, and long-term company strategy.

If you're someone who naturally thinks in product lines instead of individual products, sees opportunities before competitors do, and loves building products that win in the market, we'd love to meet you.

This is primarily an in-office role in Calgary. The best product decisions happen when you're walking over to engineering, reviewing prototypes, lifting on new equipment, talking to customer service about common complaints, and collaborating with the rest of the business.

Relocation support is available for the right candidate.
