Product Manager

Standard Bots is building the world’s most accessible robotics platform to bring advanced automation into manufacturing and beyond, with intuitive hardware and software that empower human productivity.

Overview

We are looking for a Product Manager who thrives in ambiguity, enjoys working across disciplines, and helps drive clarity and progress on product decisions that matter.

What You Will Do

• Drive product discovery and delivery for initiatives spanning software and hardware.

• Work with internal stakeholders to translate business and customer needs into clear problem statements. Help define outcomes, success metrics. Help maintain roadmaps, articulate trade-offs, and ensure alignment across cross-functional partners.

• Work hands-on with UX, interaction flows, and functional behavior — thinking through how features fit together as a system.

• Create and evolve functional specifications, workflows, and requirements that reduce ambiguity for engineering while remaining flexible.

• Collaborate with engineers, designers to iterate prototypes, validate assumptions, and de-risk work early.

What We’re Looking For

• You have some experience in a product or product-like role (PM, operations, design, engineering, or related).

• You think critically about customer problems and can break down ambiguity into structured decisions.

• You communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• You are comfortable with responsibility, autonomy, and the pace of a small team.

• You value collaboration and can build trust with peers across functions.

• Bonus: Experience or interest in industrial automation, robotics, hardware-software integration and understanding how physical systems impact product decisions.

• Bonus: Located in or near New York or willing to work hybrid.

Skills & Qualifications

• 5+ years of relevant experience

• Demonstrated ability to scope work, write clear requirements, and engage in product planning processes.

• Comfort working with data to support decisions (metrics, user feedback, prototypes).

• Ability to synthesize inputs from multiple stakeholders and drive decisions forward.

• Basic understanding of technical trade-offs; comfort learning domain complexity quickly.
