Intelligent software orchestrates advanced robots in a high-density, end-to-end system - reinventing warehouse automation for increased efficiency, speed and flexibility.\nWhat we need\nSymbotic is hiring a senior program leader to bring structure and predictability to how we deliver programs that combine robotics hardware, embedded and application software, and the enterprise systems behind them.\nYou will set the standard for integrated program management across the company, personally lead our most complex companywide initiatives, and multiply the effectiveness of the program managers and functional leaders who own day to day execution. You will step into a constantly changing portfolio, see what matters quickly, surface the risks that status reports miss, and get the right people to own the work.\nWe are looking for the adaptability of a consultant combined with the credibility of someone who has taken complex hardware and software products through launch and into customer support. You will work directly with the C-suite and be as credible with engineers as you are with executives.\nWhat we do\nSymbotic builds the AI-enabled robotic systems that run large distribution centers for major retailers and wholesalers. Our systems are live in customer facilities today, and the business is growing across customers, product lines and geographies. This role sits in our Strategic Growth organization, where program discipline turns that growth into predictable delivery.\nWhat you'll do\nOwn Symbotic's integrated program management standards: governance, stage gates, templates and operating cadence. \nOversee a portfolio of hardware, software, enterprise application and business solution programs with one integrated view of scope, schedule, budget, resourcing and dependencies. \nPersonally lead the most complex companywide initiatives from business cases through delivery. \nBring portfolio status, risks, trade-offs and recommendations to the C-suite and drive the decisions. \nGuide programs from concept through new product introduction, production ramp, field deployment and sustaining, with supply chain, service, support and warranty built in from the start. \nGovern engineering change across the deployed installed base and close the loop from field data back to engineering roadmaps. \nConnect product development to the business that supports it, including enterprise systems such as PLM and engineering change, ERP, MES, warranty and field service. \nCoach and develop program managers and use AI tools to raise how the whole team plans, reports and spots risk. \nWhat you'll need\nBachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or related technical discipline. \nMinimum of 8 years of related work experience in technical program and product management. \nMinimum of 3 years of experience leading multi-program portfolios of complex integrated hardware and software products, for example in robotics, industrial automation, automotive and EVs, consumer electronics, aerospace, medical devices or semiconductor equipment. \nAt least one complex technical product taken from concept through launch and field sustainment, and a clear view of the difference between launching a product and scaling it. \nWorking knowledge of manufacturing, suppliers, reliability, deployment, field service, support, and warranty economics. \nA record of improving execution across multiple programs at once through other program managers, without personally taking over each one. \nA track record of presenting to C-suite executives and influencing their decisions. \nExperience building or standardizing program management practice. \nFinancial fluency with business cases, program budgets, and cost models. \nExperience using AI tools for program management. \nPreferred: management consulting or enterprise transformation experience; enterprise systems such as PLM, ERP, MES, warranty, field service or customer support platforms; global deployments; large capital systems at customer sites. \nOur Environment\nUp to 15% of travel may be required. Employees must have a valid driver's license and the ability to drive and/or fly to client and other customer locations. \nThe employee is responsible for owning a credit card and managing expenses personally to be reimbursed on a bi-weekly basis. \n#LI-PA2 #LI-Hybrid\nAbout Symbotic\nSymbotic is an automation technology leader reimagining the supply chain with its end-to-end, AI-powered robotic and software platform.
