Full Job Description
As Technical Program Manager - Software you will be responsible for;
Drive execution of complex, multi-team robotics software programs, focusing on delivery of integrated capabilities spanning multiple features and workstreams.
Coordinate across multiple software and systems teams, managing interdependencies to ensure aligned delivery of end-to-end functionality rather than isolated feature execution.
Translate high-level product goals into structured execution plans, defining timelines, dependencies, and milestones across distributed teams.
Operate with a high degree of ownership to manage ambiguity, independently driving program direction while aligning to broader organizational goals.
Partner closely with engineering teams to understand technical problem spaces, including system services, architectures, and algorithms that support feature development.
Develop a working knowledge of robotics software stacks, including motion planning, trajectory generation, navigation, and related services, to effectively manage program execution.
Support feature validation by working alongside engineers in lab environments, assisting with system bring-up, running work cells, and validating feature performance against defined KPIs.
Build trust with software development teams by engaging directly in execution workflows and understanding system behavior beyond planning artifacts.
Oversee program execution using Agile methodologies, ensuring coordination across teams without focusing on individual team sprint or ticket management.
Track program progress through defined metrics, ensuring readiness for deployment and successful integration into operational environments.
Support both new product development and sustaining engineering efforts for deployed robotic systems.
Contribute to planning and execution across multiple product lines and future initiatives within the robotics portfolio.
Qualifications;
Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Robotics, or a related technical discipline.
Experience in Technical Program Management or similar role supporting complex software or robotics programs.
Strong understanding of software systems, with ability to engage in technical discussions related to architecture, services, and algorithms.
Experience managing cross-team dependencies and delivering integrated systems composed of multiple features and components.
Familiarity with robotics concepts such as motion planning, navigation, and autonomous system behavior (or demonstrated ability to learn quickly).
Experience working in Agile development environments.
Ability to operate independently in high-ambiguity, fast-paced environments while driving outcomes.
Strong communication and stakeholder management skills across engineering and product teams.
Willingness to work hands-on in lab or development environments alongside engineering teams.
Salary Range: $150,000 - $200,000
