Senior Manager, Robotics Hardware Development

Job Description

As a senior engineering manager at Amazon RIVR, you will partner closely with our CTO Hardware to scale the engineering organization during a period of rapid growth. Following the recent launch of RIVR TWO, our next-generation robot built for doorstep delivery and AI data collection at scale, we are entering a critical phase of industrialization, organizational scaling, and continued product evolution. RIVR TWO is a key step in our global delivery mission, and this role will help turn that ambition into reality at scale while also shaping the next generation of RIVR robotics.

In this position, you will be a highly autonomous manager, trusted to guide a team of managers and engineers across the full hardware lifecycle - from highly ambiguous V0/V1 prototyping through to high-volume mass production. You will define the metrics, goals, and long-term hardware strategies needed to translate technical progress into scalable impact.

This is a rare opportunity for a manager who combines strong technical judgment with a genuine passion for coaching future leaders, building high-performing teams, and strengthening a culture of ownership, speed, and continuous iteration.
