About this role
Requirements
- 8+ years of technical program or project management on teams that ship physical products or complex software, including several years at a senior level.
- Exacting attention to detail. You catch the inconsistency in the tracker, the date that quietly moved, and the acceptance criterion nobody wrote down.
- Daily fluency with current AI tools in your own work, and a concrete vision for how program management should be rebuilt around them. Be ready to show us something you built or automated, not just describe it.
- Enough technical depth to follow engineering discussions on software architecture, hardware design, and manufacturing, and to push back when an estimate or a plan does not hold together.
- Clear, concise writing and verbal communication.
Nice to haves (zero or more)
- Program management experience at more than one company, including at least one large company and at least one startup.
- Worked as a software or hardware engineer before moving into program management.
- Ran programs that span hardware and software with a manufacturing dependency: engineering builds, engineering change orders, field retrofits.
- Robotics, industrial automation, or industrial equipment background.
- Wrote the automation yourself: scripts, agents, or integrations against the Linear, Jira, GitHub, or Slack APIs.
- Comfortable on a factory or warehouse floor, and willing to travel occasionally to customer sites and manufacturing partners.
