h3About Flexion /h3pAt Flexion, we're building the intelligence layer powering the next generation of humanoid robots. Our mission is to accelerate the transition from fragile prototypes to real-world humanoid deployment. We are founded by leading scientists in robot reinforcement learning (ex-Nvidia, ex-ETH Zürich), and backed by leading international VC firms. In just months, we've gone from our first line of code to deploying real humanoid capabilities. /ph3The role /h3pOur whole-body controller is the foundation of our autonomy stack and the first thing every partner integrates. Your job is to scale it to thousands, and then hundreds of thousands, of robots. You'll join the product team, working closely with research, infrastructure, go-to-market teams and customers. You'll own the controller as a product: how it is packaged, positioned and measured, which integration steps become tooling or self-serve, and what our developer SDK needs. This is the opportunity to join and build a category-defining product. /ph3Key Responsibilities /h3ulliOwn our whole-body controller as a product: how it is packaged and positioned, which personas it serves, and which metrics matter to customers. /liliWork with research on how those metrics are evaluated /liliOwn the productisation of new robot integration. /liliDecide which integration steps become tooling, which become self-serve and which still need our team, and drive the roadmap that cuts onboarding time for each new robot /liliCollaborate with the go-to-market and marketing teams to define customer pitches, engagement models, positioning and strategy, and the pricing model through the sales process /liliTalk to customers constantly. /liliRun feedback loops with OEM engineering teams, visit sites during integrations, and turn what you hear into prioritised requirements /liliMap the product needs of our SDK: what developers must be able to configure, deploy, monitor and debug, and how the SDK should evolve as more robots run on our stack /liliPartner with research and engineering to decide what gets built and productised, and track adoption with quantitative and qualitative signals /li /ulh3Requirements /h3ulliProduct management experience on technical B2B products, ideally developer platforms, SDKs or ML products, at a high-growth startup or top tech company /liliStrong technical foundation, with a degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics or equivalent experience /liliWorking understanding of robot learning and control: what a whole-body controller does, how policies are trained in simulation, and why they behave differently on real hardware /liliExperience defining evaluations or benchmarks for ML models or autonomy systems, and turning results into decisions and customer-facing claims /liliExperience working directly with B2B technical customers, ideally supporting integration into third-party hardware or platforms /liliExcellent written and verbal communication. You can write a clear product spec, a crisp customer update and a compelling positioning narrative /liliComfortable operating in an early-stage, fast-moving environment where scope is broad and ambiguity is the norm /liliWillingness to travel to customer sites across Europe and beyond (up to 15%) /li /ulh3Bonus /h3ulli*Bonus Hands-on experience with humanoids, legged robots or other physical systems, including reinforcement learning, sim-to-real transfer or system identification /liliExperience launching or open-sourcing models, and building adoption in a research or developer community /liliPrior work on eval frameworks, model training pipelines or agentic AI products /liliA sharp instinct for product-market fit in a category that is still forming /li /ulh3Benefits /h3ulliCompetitive compensation /liliEnhanced pension plan /liliEnhanced holiday paid leave perks /liliRelocation permit sponsorship /liliCentral Zürich office with top-tier robotics testing facilities and infrastructure /liliJoining Europe's leading robotics team exposure to never-done-before research /liliEnergetic, collaborative culture with a bias for action and regular community events /liliCompetitive Compensation /liliJoining a leading robotics team exposure to never-done-before research /liliEnergetic, collaborative culture with a bias for action and regular community events /liliZurich Enhanced pension plan /liliRelocation permit sponsorship /liliEnhanced holiday paid leave perks /liliCentral Zürich office with top-tier robotics testing facilities and infrastructure /liliSan Francisco 401(k) with company contributions /liliHealth, dental vision coverage with the flexibility to choose your own plan /liliOpen PTO policy paid company holidays /li /ul
