Ask HN: Giving up on Remote Product Gig search – alternative roles?

I’m an experienced Product Manager with over 10 years of experience in the B2B SaaS marketing technology space. I’ve worked extensively with Sales, marketing and CS to launch successful products and features (created new products that now deliver $6m ARR, managed a $22m ARR product) as well as acting as a technical resource for large enterprise deals. My background is customer success and moved into PM, but I’ve launched API’s and am fairly technical, but no CS degree. After working remotely for several years and managing some team members during that time - I’m looking for my next gig. Head of Product or some such title - but am willing to be an Individual Contributor too.

BUT, despite this experience - Product Management is viewed as a core function in a business - there is clearly some bias against it being a remote position in many companies. I get it. Well, at least I’ve heard that objection often enough.I’d really like to stay located where I am with my family, it’s much more affordable than the bay Area and is about 2.5 hours away. There's no local tech-scene really.

I’m starting to give up on finding a remote product gig and was wondering if anyone had successfully transitioned from PM to another role that they enjoyed doing remotely.
