About this role

Path Robotics is hiring a Product Manager, Technical Commercialization, full-time, on-site in Columbus, Ohio, in the ROBOTICS sector.

Build the Path Forward

At Path Robotics, we’re building the future of embodied intelligence. Our AI-driven systems enable robots to adapt, learn, and perform in the real world closing the skilled labor gap and transforming industries. We go beyond traditional methods, combining perception, reasoning, and control to deliver field-ready AI that is risk-aware, reliable, and continuously improving through real-world use.

Big, hard problems are our everyday work, and our team of intelligent, humble, and driven people make the impossible possible together.

We’re looking for a Product Manager with proven experience taking highly technical, greenfield products from concept to commercial launch, someone who thrives in ambiguity, builds clarity where none exists, and brings structure, rigor, and momentum to complex, cross-functional environments.

This role is ideal for a product leader who has partnered closely with engineering and go-to-market teams to translate deep technical capabilities into customer-ready, revenue-generating products.

What You’ll Do

  • Own zero-to-one product development: lead greenfield products from early discovery and technical feasibility through MVP, commercialization, and market launch
  • Drive technical commercialization by translating complex robotics, AI, and software capabilities into clear customer value propositions and market-ready solutions
  • Create structure in ambiguous environments by defining product strategy, success metrics, operating rhythms, and decision-making frameworks
  • Serve as the single-threaded owner of product vision, requirements, and prioritization across software, hardware, R&D, and operations
  • Represent the voice of the customer, grounding product decisions in customer research, field insights, and real-world manufacturing workflows
  • Partner with Sales, Solutions, and Operations to ensure product readiness, launch planning, enablement, and successful adoption
  • Define and document functional, UX, and system-level requirements critical to robotic welding cycles and production environments
  • Develop and maintain roadmaps beyond MVP, balancing near-term delivery with long-term platform scalability
  • Establish feedback loops post-launch to measure success, identify gaps, and guide iteration and expansion

Who You Are

  • Proven experience launching at least one successful greenfield product in a technical or industrial domain (robotics, manufacturing, automation, AI, or adjacent fields)
  • Demonstrated success working in high-ambiguity environments, bringing order, clarity, and execution discipline to undefined problem spaces
  • Strong background in technical product management or technical commercialization, partnering deeply with engineering and R&D teams
  • Experience bridging software, hardware, and data to deliver cohesive, production-ready solutions
  • Comfortable making data-informed decisions using customer insights, usage data, and experimentation
  • Experienced in driving products through full lifecycle ownership: discovery, build, launch, adoption, and iteration
  • Confident facilitator who can align engineering, sales, operations, and leadership around shared outcomes
  • Clear, transparent communicator who thrives in fast-paced, cross-functional environments
  • Familiarity with analytics, experimentation, and product performance measurement
  • Ability to balance technical depth with customer-centric thinking

Why You’ll Love Working Here

  • Daily free lunch to keep you fueled and connected with the team
  • Flexible PTO so you can take the time you need, when you need it
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • 6 weeks fully paid parental leave, plus an additional 6–8 weeks for birthing parents (12–14 weeks total)
  • 401(k) retirement plan through Empower
  • Generous employee referral bonuses—help us grow our team!
