About the job
About Flexion Robotics:
At Flexion Robotics, we are pioneering the intelligence layer that will drive the next generation of humanoid robots. Our mission is to facilitate the seamless transition from fragile prototypes to actual deployment of humanoid robots in real-world applications. We are backed by a team of renowned scientists from the fields of robotic reinforcement learning (ex-Nvidia, ex-ETH Zürich) and supported by leading international venture capital firms. In just a few months, we have advanced from our first line of code to launching genuine humanoid capabilities in collaboration with our partners.
The Role:
This position transcends the typical product management role. As a vital member of our product team, you'll operate at the nexus between our infrastructure engineering team and our customers, taking ownership of the tools and interfaces developers utilize to integrate Flexion's AI software with new robotic platforms. You will spend substantial time engaging with our robots in the testing space, traveling to customer locations to grasp integration challenges firsthand, and translating these insights into a comprehensive tooling roadmap that accelerates deployments.
Your responsibilities encompass the entire lifecycle: from the initial SDK integration on new customer platforms, through development and testing workflows, to production debugging and maintenance tools. You'll be instrumental in defining what constitutes an exemplary developer experience for engineers working with humanoid robots—an evolving field with no established playbook.
Responsibilities:
- Take ownership of the product roadmap for Flexion's developer tools, which include SDKs, APIs, CLI tools, GUIs, diagnostics, and integration frameworks.
- Collaborate directly with customer engineering teams to gain a deep understanding of their integration workflows, hardware limitations, and pain points, with regular travel to customer sites.
- Establish requirements and acceptance criteria for tooling releases, working closely with Flexion's infrastructure and testing teams while maintaining a continuous feedback loop between delivered products and actual customer needs.
- Engage hands-on with robots, execute integrations, replicate bugs, and ensure that tooling performs effectively in real-world conditions.
- Guide the release process for developer-facing tools, encompassing documentation, versioning, and changelog communications to customers.
- Analyze adoption and usage patterns across customers, leveraging both quantitative signals and qualitative feedback to prioritize the backlog effectively.
- Develop and maintain comprehensive developer documentation, tutorials, and reference architectures that empower customer teams to self-serve whenever possible.
