6 River Systems is disrupting a hundred billion dollar industry with a new approach to warehouse automation. Founded in 2015, we have developed a solution built on proprietary AI, mobile robots and cloud-based enterprise software. Our solution is half the cost of traditional automation and 2-3x faster than manual, cart pick operations.

Our culture is built on trust, smarts, and collaboration. We have a West Coast vibe with Northeast drive. As a team, we encourage open discussion about particularly challenging problems. We are as passionate about hiring the right people as we are about building great products.

Position Overview:

We are searching for a Product Manager to help own and drive the strategic roadmap for our Fulfillment Automation System (FAS) and Warehouse Execution System (WES) product suites. In order to be an effective 'CEO' of your product suite, you need to have extensive ‘domain’ knowledge of Warehouse Operations, Warehouse Management Systems or Materials Handling Systems/Operations so you can design products and solutions that closely meet our customers’ needs. You are expected to be capable of learning to manage the end-to-end product management life-cycle for technically complex warehouse fulfillment & management solutions, from ideation and requirements gathering to prioritization, implementation, and ongoing performance optimization and feature enhancements. Your success will be driven by your thought leadership and your effective collaboration with Engineering and other internal stakeholders across the organization such as Sales, Customer Operations and Customer Success. As a senior member of the Product team, you will also help craft the long-term vision for our overall 6RS Global Warehouse Management and Fulfillment Platform.

In a "typical" day you could be interfacing with Customers to gather requirements for new features, conducting market research, developing our long-term strategic roadmap, mentoring your team and re-balancing our Engineering team's work between short term customer requirements, strategic projects and high priority live issues. Our environment/culture is fast-paced, collaborative and encourages innovation and creativity.

The ideal candidate will be able to grow with the company and take on additional leadership roles over time. This is a unique opportunity; you will have an immediate impact on the success and growth of our company. This role reports to the Head of Product Management, and is an integral part of our fast growing Product team.

  • Monitor performance of the team’s initiatives and measure impact of product features, enhancements and strategic projects to drive continuous performance improvements
  • Communicate your product vision and roadmap to key stakeholders throughout the organization - influencing to attain support and resources to execute

Position Requirements:
