Our mission is to create sustainable parking solutions that are compact, efficient, and adaptable throughout a building’s lifecycle, while making EV charging easier and more accessible. Are you intrigued by the idea of putting cars away with robots? Do you hate parking? Do you love parking? If so, we’d love to talk. Volley Automation builds fully automated parking. Drivers hand off their car at the entry bay and walk away. From there the building takes over: AGVs move vehicles on trays, vertical conveyors move them between floors, and a controls and software stack orchestrates everything. The result is a garage that fits more cars into less concrete, in exactly the urban cores where parking is most expensive to build. Our systems go into real buildings, on real construction schedules, with real occupancy dates. That constraint shapes everything about how we build, develop, and engineer our product. ## **The Role** - Turn customer and market evidence into product decisions: segment definition, configuration and pricing structure, feature go/no-go. Evidence means site visits, operator and owner interviews, and win/loss definitions and not a survey deck someone else built - Articulate a product vision and get a company that does not yet agree to align behind it, in front of the executive team, the board, customers, and all the way through the entire org - especially the engineering team. You have held the line against per-project one-offs quietly becoming the product - Experience with a product where the buyer and the user are different people with different definitions of value (developer and owner on one side, driver or parking spot owner/user on the other) - Has owned a product's direction as well as its delivery. Can point to a roadmap you authored rather than inherited, and explain what you cut and why as well as what was executed on and why - Owns a cross-functional development roadmap and plan spanning engineering, operations, commercial, and finance with time estimates that are aggressive and still real. Experience delivering this roadmap against an externally fixed date (construction schedule, customer opening, capital project milestone), where the date does not move because a certain department needs or wants it to - Runs dependency mapping, critical path, and a risk register as habits, with suppliers, contract manufacturers, integrators, and long-lead components tracked as schedule dependencies - Can close the loop from our Denver HQ and field deployments by turning commissioning, operational friction, and customer feedback into requirements and backlog items ## **Required qualifications** - 8+ years combined, with real depth on both sides of the product owner and program execution fronts. At least 3 years owning a product and at least 3 years owning a program outcome, which may overlap - Experience with product definition and/or technical program execution with AGVs, AMRs, robotics, material handling, warehouse automation, or vertical transportation - BS in engineering (ME, EE, or CS) or equivalent hands-on background. Must be able to read an architecture, interrogate a design decision, and push back credibly on a technical effort estimate - Commercially literate enough to be believed by the CEO and the board: argues a feature in dollars, payback, and segment access - Startup mode: ambiguity, thin process, influence over authority - Travel roughly 25-35% for customers, suppliers, and installations ## **Desired qualifications** - Capital equipment product management: long sales cycles, six and seven figure deals, pricing and configuration structure, service and warranty definitions - Ran a design partner program, customer advisory board, or equivalent structured voice-of-customer mechanism - Safety-critical or code-regulated products (UL, ASME, NFPA, functional safety, AHJ approvals) - Productization track record: have been part of taking a system from a working first installation to a repeatable, documented, installable product - Real estate developers, general contractors, or building systems trades - Fleet software: telemetry, remote diagnostics, OTA, uptime commitments - EV charging infrastructure familiarity - Stood up product process where none existed, without importing bureaucracy - Supported fundraising or board reporting with roadmap and technical-risk material - Advanced degree, masters, MBA, PhD, or PMP/CSPO.
