The posting

Mujin is a global leader in industrial automation, redefining supply chain efficiency through MujinOS—our intelligent operating system for robotics. At our core is Machine Intelligence (MujinMI), a unique approach that leverages real-time digital twins and advanced perception, planning, and control algorithms to achieve fully autonomous operations.

Our flagship product, MujinController, empowers users with a highly configurable, no-code interface. By integrating cutting-edge motion planning and computer vision, it enables seamless automation for complex applications such as palletizing, picking, and truck unloading.

Headquartered in Japan with a growing presence in the US, China, and Europe, we invite you to join a dynamic environment where you can shape the future of automation.

The Product Manager is responsible for driving new product development direction and managing the complete product lifecycle. This role combines technical project management with strategic supplier relations. You will be tasked with translating internal business needs into actionable supplier specifications, proactively mitigating component obsolescence risks, and overseeing product compliance and quality assurance. By collaborating closely with engineering, sales, and operations, you will ensure our products meet the highest standards of performance, delivery, and regulatory compliance.

Key Responsibilities

  • Identify and evaluate potential ODM/OEM partners to meet defined requirements.
  • Gather and clarify product requirements from internal stakeholders (e.g., engineering, sales, operations).
  • Translate business and technical requirements into product specifications for supplier evaluation.
  • Source and propose suitable products or solutions based on cost, performance, and compliance needs.
  • Collaborate with internal teams to refine product requirements and development direction.
  • Monitor component lifecycle status and identify obsolescence risks.
  • Evaluate impact of EOL/PCN notices on product BOMs.
  • Lead mitigation actions (e.g., last-time buy, second-source qualification, design updates).
  • Manage and release PCNs, including documentation, impact assessment, and stakeholder communication.
  • Identify long lead-time components and coordinate planning to mitigate supply risks.
  • Review project deliverables to ensure alignment with requirements, specifications, and timelines.
  • Coordinate with testing laboratories or certification bodies on test requirements and schedules.
  • Ensure testing activities align with project timelines and compliance needs.
  • Assess and review supplier performance annually based on quality, delivery, and compliance.
  • Review supplier non-conformance reports, verify root cause analysis and corrective actions.
  • Coordinate with internal stakeholders and approve closure of corrective actions.
  • Coordinate with internal teams and external parties on non-conforming units, including investigation, resolution, and follow-up actions.

Qualifications

  • 3–6 years in Hardware Product Management, Product Engineering, or Strategic Sourcing.
  • Proven track record working with OEM/ODM suppliers and cross-functional engineering teams.
  • Hands-on experience in component lifecycle management and BOM analysis.
  • Ability to translate complex business needs into technical hardware requirements.
  • Strong understanding of hardware manufacturing processes and quality control.
  • Familiarity with international hardware compliance and certification frameworks.
  • Professional proficiency in English (and Japanese is a significant plus for Tokyo-based coordination).
  • Experience in the robotics, industrial automation, or high-tech hardware sectors.
  • Experience with cost-modeling and supplier contract negotiation.
  • Knowledge of regulatory compliance (CE, FCC)

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
