Product Programme Manager

Here at Humanoid, we believe in a future where robots amplify human potential. That's why we've set out on a mission to build the world's most capable, commercially-scalable, and safe humanoid robots. We're bringing that mission to life with HMND-01 Alpha - our rapidly developed humanoid platform now running in real industrial pilots - and we're growing the team to take it even further.

Humanoid is seeking a highly driven and experienced Product Programme Manager to join our Product Department. This critical role will lead the end-to-end development and delivery programme and relevant product-related projects for Humanoid’s next-generation bipedal humanoid robot fleet solution - from Alpha prototype to production version, and from early adoption to mass deployment and further to different version obsolescence.

As the anchor for the development, launch and deployment process, you will drive cross-functional coordination across Product, Engineering, Operations, and Marketing teams to ensure that the solution is delivered on-time, on-cost, on-quality, and on-spec.

This is a highly collaborative role, requiring deep expertise in programme delivery and budget management across both technical and non-technical work streams
, as well as in product lifecycle for products that combine cutting edge hardware and software technologies. You will work closely with Engineering’s Technical Programme Managers (TPMs), who own the detailed technical execution of the mechanical, actuation, controls, perception and other AI systems that underpin safe and reliable bipedal locomotion, manipulation and interaction, to ensure their work streams are integrated into the overall programme plan, as well as other key stakeholders.

The ideal candidate will possess strong leadership skills, a structured delivery and product-oriented mindset, and the ability to operate confidently across a diverse stakeholder landscape.

• Lead the full lifecycle programme management of the humanoid robot fleet solution development & deployment - from planning, design, prototyping, testing, manufacturing to launch, early to mass deployment, version update to obsolescence or repurposing.

• Act as the central coordination point between Product, Engineering, Operations, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Marketing, Business Development and Finance to align resources, schedules, and deliverables.

• Develop and maintain programme plans, risk registers, dependency maps, and stage gates to ensure structured and transparent delivery.

• Champion best-in-class governance, reporting, and communication processes to ensure all stakeholders remain informed and engaged.

• Identify and mitigate programme risks and issues early to maintain momentum and resolve delivery challenges.

• Support the Product Department in defining scope, prioritisation, and trade-off decisions throughout the development & deployment cycles.

• Drive alignment between cross-functional teams and facilitate decision-making to unblock issues across technical and operational domains.

• Own programme budget planning and management across development, testing, tooling, and deployment phases - building and maintaining the budget, tracking actual spend against plan, forecasting variances, managing change control on cost impacts, and reporting budget performance to senior stakeholders.

• Partner with Engineering’s Technical Programme Managers (TPMs) to drive delivery of the bipedal locomotion, whole-body control, sensor integration, and safety/certification work streams - ensuring their technical plans and test campaigns are reflected in the overall programme schedule and dependencies, with progress reported transparently to stakeholders. TPMs own the detailed technical execution and design…
