Senior Product Manager, Construction

Overview

Samson Rose has been exclusively engaged by a pioneering Robotics & AI company to find a Senior Product Manager to own product definition within the Construction portfolio. This role focuses on building durable, scalable product capabilities for construction workflows such as construction activities, inspection, and verification in environments where ground truth is noisy and customer expectations vary widely.

This is not a delivery or project management role. Success comes from defining clear product boundaries, supported use cases, and non-goals, and ensuring that engineering, sales, and delivery teams operate from a single product truth.

• They are at the forefront of developing a groundbreaking, field-proven, hardware-agnostic brain technology that empowers a wide range of robots to operate autonomously in the most challenging environments—hazardous, off-road, and industrial settings—all without relying on GPS, maps, or pre-programmed routes.
• With hundreds of millions raised, they have the resources to support ambitious research and deployment at scale.
• Their mission is to tackle one of the world’s most complex challenges: deploying robots in unstructured, previously unknown environments.
• By joining their team, you’ll have the chance to collaborate with some of the brightest minds in the industry. This world-class team thrives on creativity, resilience, and bold thinking. With a decade of success in the field, they ve won DARPA challenge segments and brought together expertise from top-tier organizations like Deep Mind, NASA JPL, Boston Dynamics, NVIDIA, Amazon, Tesla Autopilot, Cruise Self-Driving, Zoox, Toyota Research Institute, and Space
