Staff Product Manager

As a Product Manager for Spot, you help design, build, and ship Boston Dynamics’ end-to-end robotic solutions, including software and hardware features, service offerings, and go-to-market plans. In this role, you will manage the enterprise hardware product initiatives for Spot and its ecosystem. This offers a rare opportunity to manage a highly successful product through its lifecycle evolution and gain broad, hands-on exposure while collaborating closely with engineering, design, sales, marketing, and customer-facing teams.

You’ll help drive component enhancements, manage EOLs, gather and refine requirements, contribute to roadmap planning, and support execution from concept through launch. Over time, you’ll have the opportunity to grow in responsibility in a way that aligns best with your strengths and interests.
