About Volley
Volley Automation is building the future of parking through fully automated robotic parking systems. 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
