At Bowery, we’re making wildly delicious food more accessible to everyone. Driven by our proprietary end-to-end technology, our farms are transforming the entire fresh food supply chain to be simpler, safer, and vastly more sustainable.
We have 5 farms in operation (including state-of-the-art Ramp;D and innovation farms) and we’re just getting started. We’re backed by tech and agriculture industry leaders with $647M in equity and debt capital, and our products are sold in over 1,400 locations.
Working at Bowery is more than just a job. It’s a chance to make a global impact with first-of-its-kind technology and ridiculously good food. We’re always looking for passionate minds to grow (and eat) with us! Ready to make a real difference? Join us. We’d love to have you here.

As a Product Manager at Bowery, you’ll be responsible for creating and executing digital and physical strategies that support our vision of building and operating a network of smart indoor farms. This is a once-in-a-career opportunity to revolutionize a multi-millennium-old institution and tackle some of the toughest challenges facing our planet water scarcity, food security, and pesticide use among them.
You’ll steer our Operations, Software, Robotics, Automation, Hardware, and Data teams to bring priorities to life. You’ll dig deeply to understand root causes and recommend solutions. Your planning cycles will be continuous, and represent the evolving needs of Bowery’s dynamic business as well as your stakeholders. You’ll play a key role in helping Bowery scale from a local community of farms to a technology-powered network that operates and optimizes autonomously.
The Product Manager role will support Bowery’s operational and commercial goals across existing and future farms. In this role, you’ll define solutions that assist supply planners and plant managers in achieving their production targets and continuously improving. This includes expanding the BoweryOS, our proprietary technology platform that manages our farms, to automate operational decisions; developing data products that help us orchestrate and adapt workload; and supporting innovation that enables our farms to reach more retailers (and their customers!).
This is a hybrid role. While we offer flexibility to work from home during the week, you’ll also be expected to join us at our headquarters in NYC part-time, as well as occasionally visit our farms in Baltimore, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey to get to know your end users and product opportunity space.
We encourage you to apply even if this is your first time launching robotics, IoT, and smart farming solutions (for most of us, this is true!) but you are excited about the space and the opportunity to implement creative decision-making.

- Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders, particularly in Operations, Supply Chain, Sales, and Product Marketing, to identify and scope roadmap priorities
- Work with engineering teams including Operations, Software, Infrastructure, Robotics, and Data to execute priorities flawlessly
- Define success metrics for your solutions, track them closely, and leverage them in your recommendations for future iteration
- Anticipate how your solutions should evolve as Bowery rapidly increases its velocity around launching new farms
