About the Role

This role is integral to Standard Bots' goal of achieving scalable, high-volume production of industrial robots by establishing program management infrastructure. It involves transforming ambiguous, high-stakes mandates into structured programs with direct CEO visibility, operating at the intersection of manufacturing, corporate strategy, and program execution.

Responsibilities

  • Establish programs by transforming strategic mandates into organized work-streams, assigning owners, setting milestones, and creating budgets.
  • Design the operating system that supports program efforts.
  • Build decision-grade plans by defining requirements, performing options analysis, creating cost models, and developing costed, sequenced recommendations.
  • Own execution by driving work-streams to completion, managing schedule and budget, handling dependencies, and clearing blockers.
  • Manage stakeholders and partners by coordinating internal functions and external partners, scoping engagements, and holding them to budget and deadlines.
  • Quantify decisions by building and owning financial models, including make-vs-buy, CapEx, breakeven, and unit economics.
  • Drive to decisions by synthesizing work into executive-grade readouts and facilitating timely leadership decisions.

Requirements

  • 7+ years leading cross-functional programs to executive decisions in manufacturing/operations, corporate strategy or BizOps at a hardware company, or management consulting with genuine industrial exposure.
  • Demonstrated ownership of a complex, ambiguous effort driven from strategy through to an executable plan.
  • Financial-modeling fluency including breakeven, CapEx, unit economics, and M&A literacy (EBITDA multiples) to own and pressure-test a make-vs-buy model.
  • Executive communication skills, including structured written synthesis and board-quality presentations.
  • Vendor and consultant management experience, including scoping and holding external partners to budget and deadline.
  • Comfort operating without a playbook, at startup pace, with direct executive exposure.
  • Prior make-vs-buy, re-shoring, capacity-expansion, or M&A-evaluation experience.
  • Working literacy across manufacturing processes (machining, sheet metal, finishing, casting).
  • Experience standing up a shop, plant, or lab from scratch.
  • Robotics or precision-hardware background.
  • PMP or equivalent certification.
  • Experience working with Long Island/NY-metro manufacturing organizations.
