- You’ll be working on problems related to inventory tracking, order management, inbound receiving, pick/pack/sort task optimization, warehouse throughput optimization, robotic fulfillment system integration, etc
- You will work closely with cross-functional teams, including warehouse operations team, customer success, engineering, QA, and leadership to define product requirements and user stories for innovative and scalable solutions
- Nimble embraces the use of AI coding agents (i.e. Claude Code) so non-engineers can contribute directly to the product. You will also test your product’s features to make sure initial go live succeeds
- Requirements Gathering: Work with customer success, engineering, QA, leadership, operations team, and business operations team to gather and evaluate business, operations and integration requirements
- Data Analysis: Analyze data and define metrics (KPIs) to study the expected impact of your features vs the actual outcome. Iterate on these insights to drive your roadmap
- Product Lifecycle Management: Oversee the entire product lifecycle from concept, design, testing and deployment to ensure company and self-defined KPIs are evaluated correctly
- Performance Tracking: Be a subject matter expert on warehouse applications metrics and contractual SLAs. Create reports and visualizations to proactively communicate impact
- Communicate Product Context: Ensure the engineering team understands the importance of why we need to work on a feature. Help give them the context they need to put themselves in the shoes of the users. Ensure the engineering team understands what they need to build with clear and precise detail
- Feature Testing: Design and organize comprehensive test plans. Conduct end to end testing of your features and work closely with the QA team to ensure long term quality of your product
- Documentation: Develop and maintain comprehensive product documentation, including integration workflows, internal and external specifications, test plans, and release documentation, operational SOPs, etc
- Training & Customer Support: Train Operations and Customer Success on owned features and provide assistance during feature launch to ensure its success
- Low Fidelity UI Design: Be able to construct rough mockups and designs to communicate requirements. Work closely with the UI/UX team for transforming into high fidelity designs
Our take
Assembly lines are valuable workflows for eCommerce businesses, but most of these are still handled by humans. The manufacturing process of most products is repetitive and algorithmic, raising questions as to why humans are still required for the job.
Nimble Robotics provides robotic solutions for automated end-to-end manufacturing, including piece-picking, sorting and packing. The services are aimed towards an eCommerce audience, reducing unnecessary staffing costs and increasing efficiency and workflow. To do this, they use robots which are capable of picking apparel, electronics, accessories, convenience items, groceries, beauty products, shoes, and more with 99.9% accuracy at 700+ UPH.
Nimble's robots are customized for every client to ensure the workflow fits their manufacturing needs. The company's network of warehouses is set to provide brands with 1-2 day services for +96% of the U.S. population, meaning Nimble is well set to see substantial growth, especially after its impressive Series A financing. This will enable it to accelerate hiring, product and technology development whilst scaling its product.
