Join a team building useful software. Work closely with engineering and design to turn new ideas into products.
Find roles through people you trust, and message a verified founder or page admin about your interest.
As a Project Manager, you will contribute directly to bringing our robot platform from prototype to a certified product. Working closely with the hardware, AI and go-to-market teams, you will plan, coordinate, and deliver each development milestone, turning prototypes into certified products that support our long-term roadmap.
Responsibilities
Own the end-to-end plan for a robot platform: milestones, critical path, risks and budget
Coordinate hardware, AI/software and GTM teams so priorities, timelines and customer needs stay aligned
Drive the platform toward certification with our QHSE lead: risk assessment, technical file, testing
Work with supply chain on parts, lead times and build readiness
Run design reviews and build gates, and keep a clear decision log
Make status visible: weekly updates, early escalation, no surprises
5+ years managing hardware or mechatronics product development (robotics, automotive, industrial or consumer electronics)
Track record taking a physical product from prototype to production
Hands-on experience with CE marking or equivalent compliance processes
Engineering background, credible with technical teams
Fluent English; French is a plus
Bonus: experience with robotics, AGVs/AMRs, or cobots
