Job Description:

The Senior Manager, Robotic Technology Development is responsible for converting validated robotic concepts into production-ready systems. This role leads the development and integration of robotic technologies from advanced prototypes through system-level demonstrations and ensures readiness for operational deployment in partnership with Manufacturing Engineering, Operations, and Safety. This is an execution-focused leadership role. The Senior Manager ensures robotic technologies progress beyond proof-of-concept into scalable, reliable, and supportable solutions aligned to real-world plant and operational environments.

Job Responsibility:

  • Lead development of robotic technologies from validated subsystems through fully integrated system prototypes and demonstrations in representative environments
  • Ensure solutions are built using production-representative hardware and software with early focus on reliability, diagnostics, maintainability, and lifecycle support
  • Drive disciplined execution that produces measurable evidence of system readiness
  • Define clear criteria and exit gates for transitioning robotic systems from development to operational deployment
  • Partner with Manufacturing Engineering, Operations, and Safety to close gaps in robustness, compliance, documentation, training, and long-term support
  • Establish acceptance metrics and structured handoff processes to reduce deployment friction and rework
  • Translate operational needs into defined robotic capabilities (e.g., autonomy, perception, recovery behaviors, orchestration)
  • Identify and define enabling technologies required to deliver those capabilities
  • Balance near-term delivery objectives with long-term architectural scalability and reuse
  • Establish practical technical standards for modular software architectures, hardware abstraction, and system interfaces across robotics, AI, and plant systems
  • Ensure technical decisions enable future deployment scale and operational sustainability
  • Make informed build-versus-buy decisions aligned with delivery timelines and business needs
  • Serve as the primary technical interface across AI/Autonomy teams, Manufacturing Engineering, Safety & Compliance, and Plant Operations
  • Clarify ownership, interfaces, and decision rights to ensure alignment from development through deployment
  • Ensure robotic systems are designed for real-world plant conditions, not laboratory environments
  • Lead and develop a multidisciplinary robotics technology development organization
  • Establish clear accountability, delivery expectations, and technical rigor
  • Implement execution rhythms (planning cycles, design reviews, readiness checkpoints) to enable speed with stability

Requirements:

  • 10+ years of experience in robotics, automation, or complex systems development
  • Demonstrated success delivering systems from prototype through production or operational readiness
  • Systems-level expertise in robotics software, systems integration, autonomy, perception, and real-time or safety-aware systems
  • Experience partnering closely with manufacturing or operational organizations
  • Experience leading technical teams in a complex, cross-functional environment

Nice to have:

  • Experience transitioning advanced technologies into production or field deployment
  • Background in manufacturing, logistics, or industrial environments
  • Familiarity with safety-critical or regulated systems
  • Proven ability to collaborate with AI teams while maintaining strong delivery focus
