  • Lead early pilot deployments and customer evaluation programs

  • Develop use cases and deployment playbooks for robotics applications

  • Represent the voice of the customer internally across product, engineering, and leadership teams

Qualifications

  • Background in customer development, solutions engineering, product strategy, technical business development, or sales

  • Experience in management consulting or equivalent problem-solving roles, with exposure to operational or industrial systems

  • Experience at an early-stage or high-growth startup, ideally operating in 0→1 or pre-product environments

  • Strong technical fluency, able to engage directly with engineering teams and customers on system behavior, constraints, and deployment tradeoffs

  • Proven ability to own pipeline, drive deals end-to-end, and close complex, technical engagements

  • Track record working across product and engineering to translate real-world customer needs into shipped systems

  • Experience selling into or deploying within operational environments such as manufacturing, logistics, or industrial settings

  • Comfortable leading ambiguous, high-stakes engagements with early adopters and shaping the product in parallel
