About Standard Bots

Standard Bots is building the next generation of industrial robots -- hardware that’s powerful, affordable, and designed to scale. We’re moving fast from prototype to high-volume production, and we need the program management infrastructure to match. This role is central to that.

Note: This is a full-time, on-site role at our Glen Cove, NY manufacturing facility and HQ.

We are unable to offer Visa sponsorship at this time.

The Role

We’re looking for a Manufacturing Program Manager to own the orchestration of multiple high-impact, cross-functional programs running in parallel -- facility expansion, new production line setup, vertical integration of key components, and a company-wide ERP transition. You’ll be the person who turns ambiguous, multi-quarter initiatives into clear plans, accountable owners, and on-time delivery.

This is a senior individual contributor role for someone who thrives in a hands-on manufacturing environment, can hold a portfolio of moving parts in their head, and is equally comfortable in a leadership review, on the production floor, and inside a Gantt chart.

You’ll report directly to the Head of Manufacturing and partner closely with engineering, supply chain, IT, finance, facilities, and external vendors.

What You’ll Do

Program Portfolio & Master Planning

• Own a portfolio of concurrent manufacturing programs end-to-end -- facility expansion, new line bring-up, vertical integration, and ERP implementation
• Define program scope, milestones, dependencies, budgets, and risks -- maintaining integrated schedules and surfacing trade-offs early to leadership
• Run the operating cadence: weekly program reviews, monthly steering committees, and executive readouts that translate program status into clear narratives

Cross-Functional Execution

• Coordinate across manufacturing engineering, supply chain, quality, facilities, IT, and finance -- hold owners accountable and remove blockers fast
• Manage risk and change: maintain an active risk register, drive change control on scope, schedule, and budget, and escal...

Capital Projects & Facility Build-Outs

• Lead facility build-outs and line installations end-to-end: vendor selection, capex tracking, equipment procurement, install/qualify/validate, and ramp to production

ERP Transition

• Partner with IT and functional leads on requirements, data migration, change management, training, cutover, and hypercare for an enterprise ERP rollout

Vertical Integration

• Plan and execute the in-housing of components and sub-assemblies -- make-vs-buy analysis, tooling, process design, supplier transitions, and PPAP

Program Excellence

• Codify playbooks, templates, and tooling so each subsequent program runs faster and more predictably than the last

What We’re Looking For

• 5-10+ years of program or project management experience in a manufacturing, hardware, or industrial environment
• Demonstrated track record leading multi-million-dollar capital programs end-to-end -- facility expansion, new production line installation, factory relocation, or equivalent
• Direct experience with at least one of: ERP implementation or migration (NetSuite, SAP, Oracle, Dynamics, Plex, etc.), vertical integration / in-housing initiatives, or new-product industrialization
• Working fluency in manufacturing fundamentals: BOMs, routings, MRP, capacity planning, line balancing, takt time, quality systems, and operational KPIs
• Strong command of program management craft: integrated scheduling, dependency mapping, risk management, capex tracking, and stage-gate governance
• Excellent written and verbal communication -- you can write a one-page status update an executive will actually read, and run a room with engineers, vendors, and finance in it
• Bias for action -- comfortable on the production floor, in vendor negotiations, and in front of executives in the same day
• Bachelor’s degree in engineering, operations, supply chain, or a related field; equivalent hands-on experience considered

Nice to Have

• Experience scaling a contract manufacturing partner or standing up an in-house manufacturing line for a hardware or robotics product
• Lean / Six Sigma, PMP, or equivalent credentials -- with the judgment to know when to apply them and when not to
• Familiarity with PLM, MES, and modern ERP / planning tooling
• Prior experience at a high-growth, venture-backed hardware company

Compensation and Benefits

The salary range for this role is $100,000 to $130,000. We are open to a variety of seniority levels for this role and will build compensation packages that are commensurate with seniority and skill level. Base salary is just one part of the overall compensation at Standard Bots.
