Full Job Description

📋 Description

• We're a growing team of engineers, operators, and technicians from companies like Palantir, Qualcomm, Dyson, Shopify, Tesla, Meta, and Google DeepMind.
• Our mission is to make construction software-defined and autonomous - a future where beautiful, bespoke buildings go up in a single day, with minimal labor.
• You'll be part of our founding US team - pilots are on the way as we expand into the market, with facilities to follow.
• To get you started, we'll cover travel and accommodation for a few weeks of onboarding at Monumental HQ, in the city center of Amsterdam - a beautiful facility with an in-house workshop and robot testing floor.
• We're explicitly not a hybrid or remote-first company - you can't build robots or walls from home, so we're onsite five days a week.
• As our first General Manager outside of Europe, you'll figure out and write the playbook yourself, the hard and complicated way.
• Monumental is unique in that we're completely vertically-integrated - we design and build our own hardware and software, we manufacture the robots in-house, and we deploy them on construction sites ourselves, with our own team, operating as a subcontractor.
• You'll have an extraordinary amount of autonomy - it's an excellent fit if you've founded a company before, or if you're looking for an entrepreneurial role where you can make outsized impact.
• You'll get high-level goals but no one will tell you what to do or manage you on a daily basis.
• You'll be responsible for deploying cutting-edge technology in an operationally complex environment that hasn't seen change for over a century, while doing sales and building up a local team.
• You'll have to figure out how to go from small construction pilot deployments to ongoing commercial deployments, and then scale to multiple concurrent deployments.
• You'll ensure there is always more than sufficient demand for our product.
• You'll hire, onboard, and manage a local team of robot and deployment operators that will operate our robots and other tasks on construction sites.
• You'll manage our fleet of robots and, with the rest of the HQ team, figure out how to manage a remote fleet across the Atlantic.
• You'll set up whatever local facilities will be needed in the US, from a small office to a potential storage or maintenance hub.
• You'll stand up the required legal structure for us to operate and scale in the US.

🎯 Requirements

• Minimum of 6 years of experience in a chaotic, entrepreneurial, high-growth, unstructured environment.
• A strong bias-to-action and getting-shit-done mentality with the required tenacity and speed.
• You're able to context switch from strategic work to very practical work throughout the day, and nothing feels beneath you.
• A strong strategic business sense.
• You're an excellent communicator.
• You have experience hiring and managing a team and you understand the importance of filtering for and instilling the right culture.
• Raw intellectual horsepower and eagerness to learn.
• Willingness for frequent travel within the US, and between the US & The Netherlands.

🏖️ Benefits

• High level of autonomy.
• Opportunity to make outsized impact.
• Ability to work with an experienced founding team backed by a $32M Series B led by Khosla Ventures and Plural.
• Access to a beautiful facility with an in-house workshop and robot testing floor.
• Opportunity to work with a unique and vertically-integrated company.
