VP of Product
We are building the foundational AI model and prompt-to-matter platform for chemistry-based products - an MCP/API layer that allows prompts and AI agents to design, formulate, and orchestrate robotic manufacturing.
Every formulation, batch, process parameter, and outcome becomes training data. Our manufacturing nodes are not just places where products are made - they are environments where the system learns how chemistry behaves in the real world. Connected through a unified intelligence layer, each run improves formulation design, process control, and production efficiency across the network.
When intelligence is embedded into the systems that transform matter, production becomes adaptive, local, and exponentially more capable. We are building a platform that will help power a radically abundant future.
About the Role
As VP of Product, you will define and drive the product strategy across our entire platform - spanning Gen 3 robotics hardware, manufacturing software, AI optimization systems, and customer-facing workflows.
This role sits at the strategic center of the company. You will translate long-term vision into structured roadmaps, disciplined prioritization, and measurable outcomes. You will ensure engineering velocity aligns with market demand, operational realities, and platform coherence.
We are building a prompt-to-matter platform for chemistry-based products - embedding intelligence directly into physical production systems. You will shape how that vision becomes a scalable, integrated product ecosystem that improves over time.
This is a leadership role for a systems thinker who thrives in ambiguity, builds structure, and operates comfortably at both strategic and tactical levels. You will build and mentor the product organization while partnering closely with Engineering, AI, Manufacturing, and Revenue teams.
This is a full-time role based in California, with in-person collaboration expected.
What You'll Do
- Define and own the overarching product vision and multi-year roadmap.
- Build and lead the product organization, including PMs and designers.
- Establish product operating cadence: planning cycles, prioritization frameworks, and release discipline.
- Ensure alignment between robotics hardware, manufacturing software, and AI intelligence layers.
- Translate company strategy into clear milestones and measurable KPIs.
- Drive disciplined tradeoff decisions across speed, scope, and long-term architecture.
- Define pricing, packaging, and value articulation in collaboration with Revenue leadership.
- Build strong feedback loops from customers and production environments into product direction.
- Maintain platform coherence as we scale distributed manufacturing nodes globally.
What We're Looking For
- 7+ years of product experience with 2+ years leading product teams.
- Experience owning complex, multidisciplinary platforms (hardware + software preferred).
- Strong technical fluency; comfortable engaging deeply with engineering teams.
- Demonstrated ability to create structure in high-ambiguity environments.
- Systems thinker - understands how product, economics, operations, and technology interact.
- High agency, strong decision-making ability, and bias toward action.
- Excellent communication skills across executives, engineers, and operators.
- Actively leverages modern AI tools to accelerate research, synthesis, and product development.
- Nice-to-haves: robotics, industrial software, manufacturing systems, AI-driven platforms.
What We Offer
- Competitive compensation with equity.
- Executive-level ownership over product direction and long-term platform strategy.
- Opportunity to shape a foundational manufacturing technology from early stage to global scale.
- High-autonomy environment with direct impact on company trajectory.
- A fast-moving culture built for ambitious, first-principles builders.
