Product Manager – Robotics & Autonomy
The Mission
At Ati Motors, we aren’t just building software; we are building the future of industrial mobility. As a PM, you will be the "CEO" of a specific robot lineup. You will sit at the intersection of hardware engineering, AI autonomy, and real-world industrial application. Your goal is to ensure our robots are not just technologically superior, but operationally indispensable in factories and warehouses globally.
Key Responsibilities
- Product Strategy & Roadmap: Own the end-to-end lifecycle of our AMRs (Autonomous Mobile Robots), from conceptualizing new form factors to scaling production-ready bots.
- HW-SW Orchestration: Translate complex technical requirements between our Hardware (Mechatronics/Sensors) and Software (Autonomy/Fleet Management) teams to ensure seamless integration.
- Field-First Design: Spend time on the "shop floor." Gather insights from industrial environments to define payload capacities, battery cycles, and safety protocols that meet global standards.
- Technical Specs (PRDs): Draft detailed Product Requirement Documents that cover everything from sensor fusion (LiDAR, IMU, Vision) to mechanical durability and thermal management.
- Competitive Intelligence: Stay ahead of the global robotics landscape, ensuring Ati Motors remains a leader in cost-to-performance ratios and deployment speed.
What We’re Looking For
- 5–6 years of experience in product management or systems engineering, specifically within hardware-centric products. You’ve built or shipped physical products before.
- A Bachelor’s in Mechanical, Electrical, or Electronics Engineering is a must. A Master’s in Robotics or Hardware Engineering is highly preferred.
- A deep understanding of robotics fundamentals—kinematics, sensor integration, power electronics, or embedded systems.
- Ability to move from a high-level business goal (e.g., "increase throughput by 20%") to a specific technical feature (e.g., "optimize path-planning for tight radiuses").
- You understand that hardware is hard. You have the patience for hardware iteration cycles but the urgency of a high-growth startup.
- You have hands-on experience with ROS (Robot Operating System).
- You’ve managed the transition of a product from "Alpha Prototype" to "Mass Production."
- You have a personal portfolio of hobbyist robotics projects or "tinkering."
