Develop financial models to understand BOM cost sensitivity and ROI targets. Support program management by creating and managing prioritized backlogs and aligning feature definition and release plans with major program milestones.
Embed with Engineering Teams: Participate in standups, design reviews, and technical discussions to stay aligned and proactively unblock development progress. Use your multidisciplinary technical expertise to facilitate product requirement tradeoff discussions across user experience, mechanical, electrical, and software teams.
Collaborate Across Organizations: Identify opportunities to influence partner teams in design of adjacent physical and virtual manufacturing infrastructure. Develop requirements for “robot-friendly” interfaces. Build and maintain partner team relationships for seamless collaboration.
Support Integration into Production: Own the full product lifecycle. Support design for manufacturability, deployability, and maintainability. Manage feature intake and issue triage for deployed products. Actively search out the voice of the customer to drive continuous improvement of our products.
