About the Role

We’re seeking a Senior Product Manager to lead product strategy and execution for Copia’s Source Control product and our newest product Copia Actions. Source Control is Copia’s flagship product used by automation engineers to branch diff review and version their PLC and automation code. Copia Actions is a brand-new product that extends Source Control with automated workflows: a CI/CD layer for industrial automation where customers can trigger 
• Working with the Head of Product you'll develop actionable hypotheses that guide our product initiatives contributing to product roadmaps and strategy.
• In partnership with engineering you’ll prioritize and manage the project backlog in alignment with the product roadmap.
  You’ll work closely with engineering to define requirements and create specifications for new projects or features.
• You will manage customer feedback channels and market research activities using data to validate or adjust product iterations.
• You will work cross-functionally with marketing success and engineering for product launch planning.
• Own the Source Control roadmap: Define and prioritize improvements across branching diffing code review version history and integrations with the PLC IDEs and automation platforms our customers use every day.
• Lead Copia Actions from 0→1: Define the MVP identify the right use cases (e.g. automated testing of PLC code deployment pipelines governance and compliance checks) and bring the product through alpha beta and GA.
• Be the voice of the automation engineer: Understand how controls engineers PLC programmers and OT teams ship code today and where the workflow breaks down.
• Drive cross-functional impact: Partner with other product teams (Platform DeviceLink Copilot) so Source Control and Actions fit cleanly into the rest of Copia.
• Customer & stakeholder engagement: Act as both internal product expert and external face of the product working directly with customers solution engineers partners and leadership.

What We Do

Copia is redefining how the world’s factories energy systems and infrastructure are built and maintained. Our Industrial Code Lifecycle Management Platform connects software engineering practices with operational technology giving manufacturers resiliency with the visibility control and confidence they need to innovate safely.We’re engineers builders and problem-solvers driven by one mission:Keep industry moving forward.Copia is building the modern engineering platform for industrial automation. Industrial organizations operate critical infrastructure on PLCs SCADA and OT networks. These environments power manufacturing energy food production and infrastructure worldwide. Most of them still rely on fragmented tooling and manual workflows that would not be tolerated in any modern software environment.Copia closes that gap. We bring the discipline of modern software engineering to operational technology teams giving controls engineers and IT security teams the version control change management and operational resilience their environments demand.Two concepts define what we do:Industrial Code Lifecycle Management (ICLM) applies structured lifecycle practices to automation code and configuration management. Think DevOps for the plant floor. It enables industrial teams to manage PLC logic configurations and automation assets with version control traceability and controlled deployment processes. No more tribal knowledge. No more manual backups on USB drives. No more mystery around what changed when and who made the call.Operational Technology Disaster Recovery (OTDR) ensures automation systems can be rapidly restored after failures cyber incidents or operational disruptions. It covers backup validation system restoration procedures and resilience planning for industrial control systems. When ransomware hits or equipment fails production gets back online in hours not weeks.Together ICLM and OTDR form the foundation for secure resilient industrial automation environments. Copia is the platform that makes both operationally real.

Why Work With Us

At Copia you’ll work with some of the most advanced industrial and engineering organizations in the world. You’ll help them adopt modern tools that improve how engineering teams collaborate manage code and operate critical infrastructure.Copia is growing incredibly quickly as a company thus all roles are seen as "growth track" roles.
