Full Job Description
About the role

We're looking for a Senior Technical Program Manager to own performance and release for the autonomy stack that runs across our L2+ passenger vehicle, L4 truck, and mining vehicle programs.

You'll sit at the center of the stack's engineering leadership, turning system health into release decisions, and coordinating those releases across every downstream team building on top of it.
At Applied Intuition, you will:
  • Performance measurement: Define and own how we measure and forecast the stack's reliability, so leadership knows not just where we stand today but where we're headed.
  • Release ownership: Drive the stack's release cycle end to end - coordinate how the Core team ship to multiple vertical projects, and manage expectations with downstream teams.
  • Prioritization: Identify the key projects to improve the driving performance with engineering leads, and unblock the execution
  • Reporting: Build the reporting that gives engineering and customer-facing teams a clear, shared view of performance and release status.
We're looking for someone who has:
  • Background in autonomy, robotics, or ML
  • 3+ years of experience in technical program management, engineering, or a related field
  • The ability to context switch effectively across multiple projects
  • Willing to operate without a fixed lane - making the product call one day, running the analysis or building the dashboard the next
