[Hiring] Senior Product Manager @Agility Robotics

Role Description

Agility Robotics is looking for a Senior Product Manager to lead product strategy and development for Digit's perception and learned capabilities. This is a highly technical product role at the intersection of robotics, artificial intelligence, perception, and real-world autonomous behavior. You will be responsible for:

• Defining what Digit must understand about its environment.
• Improving the robot's ability to perform useful work.
• Evaluating and maturing capabilities for production use.

You will partner closely with various teams to translate customer and application needs into scalable robot intelligence capabilities. The role requires bridging emerging AI and robotics technologies with real product outcomes.

Key Responsibilities

• Own the perception and world understanding capabilities roadmap.
• Define the product strategy, priorities, and roadmap for perception-enabled and learned robot capabilities.
• Translate customer workflows and application requirements into clear requirements for perception, scene understanding, object understanding, learned behaviors, adaptation, motion planning, and other AI-enabled robot capabilities.
• Establish product-level metrics and evaluation criteria for perception and learned capabilities.
• Drive capability maturity from research or prototype stages through validation, productization, and production deployment.
• Partner with AI Models & Tools Product and Engineering teams to translate product capability needs into requirements.
• Identify when capabilities should move beyond narrow task-specific implementations toward reusable models and behaviors.
• Work closely with robotics, perception, machine learning, autonomy, simulation, and systems engineering teams.
• Establish representative evaluation environments, test scenarios, datasets, and benchmarks for robot capability performance.
• Coordinate requirements and roadmap dependencies across various systems.
• Help shape Agility's longer-term robot intelligence strategy.
• Clearly articulate product priorities, technical trade-offs, capability maturity, and roadmap decisions to stakeholders.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Robotics, Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Engineering, or a related technical field. Advanced degree strongly preferred.
• 5+ years of Product Management or equivalent product leadership experience in robotics, autonomous systems, AI/ML, computer vision, or another deeply technical product environment.
• Strong understanding of machine learning, perception, robotics, autonomous systems, or related technical domains.
• Demonstrated ability to work effectively with highly technical engineering and research teams.
• Experience translating ambiguous customer or product problems into measurable technical capability requirements.
• Strong understanding of the distinction between technology performance and production product readiness.
• Experience defining metrics, benchmarks, or evaluation frameworks for complex technical products.
• Ability to evaluate technical trade-offs and communicate their product implications to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Demonstrated ability to operate across multiple teams and influence without relying on direct authority.
• Strong strategic thinking combined with a willingness to engage deeply in product execution.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

Requirements

• Experience with computer vision, foundation models, reinforcement learning, imitation learning, learned policies, or multimodal AI systems.
• Experience with manipulation or mobile robotics.
• Experience taking machine learning or robotics capabilities from research through production deployment.
• Experience with simulation, synthetic data, evaluation infrastructure, or large-scale robotics datasets.
• Experience building products that must operate reliably under significant real-world variation.
• Experience in warehouses, logistics, manufacturing, or other industrial environments.
• Experience with humanoid robots or mobile manipulation platforms.
• Advanced degree in Robotics, Computer Science, Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, or a related field.
