Job Summary
Own the build program schedule, milestones, and execution plan for producing humanoid robots from prototype builds through production ramp. Drive cross-functional coordination across engineering, manufacturing, supply chain, build, and test teams to keep builds on track and aligned on priorities. Identify, track, and resolve dependencies, risks, blockers, and parts constraints while escalating decisions to maintain program momentum. Translate engineering and production priorities into sequenced build plans and establish continuous improvement processes for planning cadences and stakeholder reporting. Own feedback loops from build issues back into engineering and supply-chain planning to communicate status and tradeoffs clearly to leadership.
Required Qualifications
- 7+ years in technical program or project management, hardware build or manufacturing operations, or a closely related role delivering complex electromechanical or robotic products
- Proven track record owning schedules, milestones, and cross-functional execution for complex hardware programs, ideally from prototype through production
- Strong technical fluency—able to read BOMs, schematics, and CAD drawings, understand build/integration/test workflows, and make informed tradeoff and prioritization calls
- Excellent dependency, risk, and blocker management, with a demonstrated bias for action and driving decisions across teams
- Strong organizational, communication, and stakeholder-management skills, including establishing planning cadences and clear status reporting to engineering and leadership
Desired Qualifications
- Direct experience with robotic systems, ideally humanoid, legged, and/or manipulation robots
- Experience with program-management and manufacturing tools (e.g., ERP/MRP, PLM, MES, or project-tracking systems) and prototype-to-production hardware programs
