Product Manager, Rhoda Platform

• Own the end-to-end product definition of Rhoda’s platform for third-party hardware partners: the APIs, tooling, and integration experience that let partner robots run on Rhoda’s models.
• Work deeply and directly with partner engineering teams to understand their hardware, their operational environments, and their customers, and translate what you learn into clear platform requirements and priorities.
• Define the technical and product boundaries between Rhoda’s systems and our partners’, deciding what we expose, what partners build, and what we support.
• Design the partner qualification and certification experience, and evolve it as the partner ecosystem grows.
• Own the partner-facing developer experience: documentation, reference implementations, and the tooling partners use to integrate, test, and deploy.
• Conduct partner and customer discovery that informs packaging, prioritization, and the platform roadmap.
• Write crisp, structured requirements and run reviews that keep engineering, research, and partners aligned., * Define a new business, not a feature: you’ll be the platform’s first and owning product manager from day one.
• Shape how the world’s robot makers access generalist robot intelligence.
• Work at the intersection of frontier AI models and real partner hardware, with strong executive commitment behind the platform.

Do you have experience in Technical writing?, * 5+ years of product management experience, including shipping a platform, API, or integration product for physical hardware systems - robotics, autonomous vehicles, drones, industrial automation, or comparable embedded domains.

• Hardware-software fluency: you can sit with a partner’s controls engineer and hold your own on kinematics, sensors, real-time constraints, and communication buses, then turn around and debate API ergonomics with a software team. Direct robotics experience strongly preferred.
• Partner instincts: you’ve run design-partner or OEM-partnership motions - small numbers of deep, technical relationships where the product and the partnership develop together.
• Business savvy: you’re comfortable in front of customers and partners, you ask the questions that reveal what they’d actually buy, and you can translate that into product and packaging recommendations.
• Boundary-drawing judgment: much of this job is deciding what we own versus what partners own. You’ve made these calls before and can defend them.
• Excellent writing: crisp requirements, structured reviews, and documentation that partner engineers can build from.

Nice to Have (But Not Required)

• Experience with embodied AI, robot foundation models, or the humanoid robotics landscape.
• Experience designing certification, qualification, or “works with” programs.
• Experience working with systems integrators or industrial automation ecosystems.
• Experience as an early or founding PM at a tech startup.

At Rhoda AI, we’re building the next generation of generalist intelligent robots. We own the full robotics stack from high-performance hardware and robot systems to the infrastructure and state-of-the-art foundation world models that control our robots. Our robots are designed to be generalists capable of operating in complex, real-world environments and handling long-tail edge cases, made possible by our cutting edge research and end-to-end system design. We’ve raised over $400M and are investing aggressively in model research, infrastructure, hardware development, and manufacturing scale-up to make generalist robotics a reality.

Beyond our own robots, we’re opening Rhoda’s foundation models to third-party hardware makers. We’re looking for a Product Manager to own this platform end to end. This is a high-ownership, zero-to-one role: you’ll define the product, work directly with our first partners, and shape how robot makers around the world access generalist robot intelligence.
