How much do vp robotics jobs pay per year?

As of Aug 8, 2026, the average yearly pay for vp robotics in the United States is $157,532.00, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $115,000.00 and $190,000.00 per year, depending on experience, location, and employer.

What is the difference between Vp Robotics vs Drone Operator?

AspectVp RoboticsDrone Operator
CredentialsTypically requires engineering or technical certifications, relevant industry experienceRequires drone pilot certification, FAA Part 107 license
Work EnvironmentDesign, develop, and oversee autonomous drone systems in industrial or commercial settingsOperate drones manually in various outdoor or indoor environments
Industry UsageUsed in logistics, inspection, agriculture, and autonomous systemsUsed in filming, surveying, inspection, and recreational flying

Vp Robotics focuses on developing autonomous drone solutions and overseeing their deployment, often requiring technical and engineering expertise. Drone Operators primarily manually control drones for specific tasks, often in media or inspection roles. While both roles involve working with drones, Vp Robotics is more involved in system development and automation, whereas Drone Operators focus on manual operation and direct control.

Job description

Ready to make connectivity from space universally accessible, secure and actionable? Then you've come to the right place!

E-Space is bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services. We are building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system that will fundamentally change the design, economics, manufacturing and service delivery associated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.

We're intentional, we're unapologetically curious and we're 100% committed to innovate space-based communications and deliver actionable intelligence that will expand global economies, protect space and our planet and enhance our overall quality of life.

The VP, Manufacturing & Production owns the factory system that produces satellites at rate. 

Manufacturing is not a downstream recipient of engineering work at E-Space. The VP, Manufacturing & Production embeds DFM engineers in hardware product teams from PDR onward, participates actively at every program gate, leads production execution through the 100-unit Joint Phase pilot build, and assumes full production ownership at the Manufacturing Readiness Review (MRR). From MRR onward, no other VP can direct the production line without escalating through this role.

The role spans three distinct operating modes: influencing design during the Engineering Phase, demonstrating production readiness during the Joint Phase, and executing at rate during Production. Each requires a different leadership posture.

What you'll be doing:

Production System Ownership

  • Own the single metric that defines success: 5 spacecraft/day sustained at or below DTC target
  • Assume full production ownership at MRR - from that point, all production line decisions route through this role
  • Manage production design changes through the Configuration Control Board (CCB) - ECOs require your concurrence before release
  • Provide direct accountability for first-pass yield, automation uptime 95%, and ATE fault coverage 95%

Product Manufacturing Engineering

  • Lead DFM reviews at PDR and CDR; close all critical and major DFM findings before CDR
  • Direct process engineering, tooling design, production BOM control, and work instruction development
  • Lead manufacturing readiness assessment and MRR preparation - present manufacturing readiness evidence to the CTO

Automated Assembly & Test

  • Design, commission, and operate robotic assembly systems; maintain automation uptime 95%
  • Own ATE design and development - board, subsystem, and spacecraft-level automated test
  • Achieve 95% fault detection to LRU level and 0.5% false failure rate
  • Own Test Program Set (TPS) development, validation, and production test software

Production Line Operations

  • Manage daily rate at the 5 SC/day target through factory layout optimization and workforce planning
  • Maintain station utilization balance (60-90% per station) and enforce hold point compliance
  • Drive headcount growth capped at 20% of volume growth rate

Manufacturing Data & Quality

  • Implement and operate the MES including work order management, traveler control, and ATE data integration
  • Monitor SPC, yield trending, and defect pareto analysis
  • Enforce workmanship standards per IPC-A-610 Class 3; maintain dotted-line to VP, MA&Q for quality system compliance
What you bring to this role:
  • 15+ years of progressive manufacturing and production engineering experience; at least one program carried from factory design through full-rate production at a sustained rate of 100 units/week
  • Direct accountability for production rate, yield, and unit cost on a high-complexity electromechanical or aerospace product at rate - low-rate experience is not a substitute
  • Demonstrated experience designing, commissioning, and operating robotic assembly systems, ATE, and automated material handling
  • Direct accountability for ATE design, fault coverage validation, and production test software
  • Track record of embedding DFM discipline in product design teams during development - not as a production afterthought
  • Hands-on MES experience including work order management, traveler control, ATE data integration, and as-built genealogy
  • Demonstrated record of building multi-discipline manufacturing engineering teams including managing embedded engineers
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical, Manufacturing, Industrial Engineering, or related field - or equivalent verifiable experience
Bonus Points for the Following
  • Experience in aerospace or defense high-rate production (satellites, missiles, avionics, or comparable complex systems)
  • Direct experience with satellite manufacturing or space hardware production
  • Familiarity with Design-to-Cost (DTC) methodologies and production cost modeling
  • Experience with lean manufacturing transformation in a high-complexity environment
  • Familiarity with digital twin and model-based manufacturing approaches
This is a full time, exempt position, based out of our Saratoga office.  The target base pay for this position is $190,000- $225,000 annually.  The total compensation packaged will be determined by various factors such as your relevant job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. 
 
We are redefining how satellites are designed, manufactured and used-so we're looking for candidates with passion, deep knowledge and direct experience on LEO satellite component development, design and in-orbit activities. If that's your experience - then we'll be immediately wow-ed.
 
This role requires access to controlled technical data. Under U.S. law (ITAR/EAR), we can only consider U.S. persons (U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, and individuals granted asylum or refugee status).
 
E-Space is not currently able to provide employment sponsorship for candidates who do not hold work authorization for the location of this role.

Why E-Space is right for you:

As a member of our team, you will play a crucial role in driving our success.  Our team members have a strong sense of dedication and responsibility; this includes a strong commitment to our mission to create an entirely new suite of global capabilities to improve lives, business efficiencies and build a smarter planet. This means that there will be times when extra hours, including nights and weekends, may be needed to meet critical deadlines and mission goals.  In return, we offer a dynamic work environment with opportunities for professional growth and development and the chance to make a meaningful impact in a high-growth industry.  

We want you to make the most of your journey at E-Space. That's why we support and invest in the physical, emotional and financial well-being of our team members and their families. Some of what you can expect when working at E-Space:

An opportunity to really make a difference
Sustainability at our core
Fair and honest workplace
Innovative thinking is encouraged
Competitive salaries
Continuous learning and development
Health and wellness care options
Financial solutions for the future
Optional legal services (US only)
Paid holidays
Paid time off

We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
