Senior Technical Program Manager
Job description
We believe general-purpose, generally-intelligent robots will be built in our lifetimes. Robots will work in our factories, move our goods, walk on our streets and eventually be in our homes. To build that future, research and deployment must work in lockstep: real-world operation must make the technology better and better technology must make deployment easier. We're looking for the thinkers, builders, and researchers who want to be part of that loop.
As an AI robotics company that deploys its inventions directly into the facilities that need them, on state-of-the-art hardware, every line of code written at Tutor has a direct impact on the global, physical economy.
Job responsibilities
- Own the integrated plan for the Cassie workstream: milestones, dependencies, and risks across software, hardware, manufacturing, and field deployment, covering both the fleet in production and the products in…
- Keep one source of truth. Linear, Notion, Slack, and employees’ brains should agree. When they do not, you find out first and fix the process, not just the record.
- Surface risk early and plainly: slipping dates, unowned work, hidden dependencies, and scope that grew without a decision.
- Write the status that leadership, engineering, and customer-facing teams read, in the register each needs. Be the person who gets asked "what is actually going on with X" and has the answer.
- Build and own the automation: agents and scripts that pull status from tickets, pull requests, and chat, draft updates, flag drift, and chase follow-ups, so people spend their time on judgment rather than collection.
- Build tools which coordinate hardware change orders, manufacturing builds, and software releases so that what reaches a customer site is a matched set.
Job 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.
