Chief Robotics Officer

Advancement Prospects

The career of chief robotics officer is less than 10 years old, so advancement paths are not as defined as they are for more established careers. A CRO can advance by receiving pay raises and performance bonuses, as well as by finding a job at a more prestigious employer. At some companies, the positions of CTO and CIO are considered higher-level on the career ladder than CROs, so these occupations would be advancement options at these employers. Some chief robotics officers are promoted to top executive careers (e.g., chief operating officer, chief executive officer). Additionally, a CRO can also choose to open a consulting firm or work as a college professor.
