Principal Product Manager - Robotics

🚢 Principal Product Manager – Command & Control Systems | London or South East UK (Hybrid)

We are a fearless, innovation-driven technology company transforming operations at sea — and we're looking for a Principal Product Manager to define and lead our Command & Control

product ecosystem.

This is not your average PM role. You'll be shaping how control systems, mission management, simulation and digital replication connect to deliver a cohesive, scalable and safe product suite for remote and autonomous maritime operations.

What you'll own:

• The end-to-end product ecosystem vision and strategy across all command and control capabilities
• Alignment between software, systems, autonomy and operational workflows
• Cross-disciplinary teams translating operational ambitions into scalable, testable, safe system capabilities
• Governance practices ensuring traceability, risk visibility and coherent delivery
• Architecture and interface decisions balancing flexibility, performance and reliability
• Integration, simulation and digital lifecycle practices that accelerate learning and feedback

What we're looking for:

• Experienced product leader with a track record in complex software-hardware integration, command and control or robotics automation — concept to real-world operation
• Experience working in Maritime, Automotive, Smart Warehousing or any other industry that is driving Robotics automation
• Experience in ROS would be highly desirable
• Strong in systems thinking — able to see relationships, dependencies and value flows across diverse technologies
• Comfortable moving between product vision and delivery execution
• Skilled at engaging both technical and commercial stakeholders
• Desirable: experience in large-scale control or command systems, autonomy, remote operations, simulation or digital twin technology
• Familiarity with agile product development for high-reliability or safety-critical systems

What success looks like:

• A unified product ecosystem where capabilities complement and amplify one another
• Clear, future-focused product strategy aligned with operational excellence and revenue generation
• Stakeholders confident in product direction, trade-offs and delivery
• Systems that are safe, reliable and intuitive across missions and operating domains

What we offer:

• Competitive salary bench-marked to your skills, experience and location
• Hybrid working pattern
• The chance to genuinely disrupt a traditional industry using cutting-edge technology
• A culture built on courage, trust, collaboration and doing the right thing
• Development opportunities that go well beyond your role
