Founded in 2017 and now valued at $15 billion, the Silicon Valley company is creating the digital infrastructure needed to bring intelligence to every moving machine on the planet.

Job responsibilities
- Manage hardware and software stack deployment and autonomy system commissioning activities across customer mining and construction sites globally
- Own and manage multiple concurrent mining autonomy customer engagements, ensuring all workstreams are progressing toward contractual obligations and delivery milestones
- Define and scope bi-weekly sprint goals across customer projects, maintaining rigorous documentation of deliverables and task traceability in tools like Jira and Confluence
- Serve as the operational backbone for customer engagements — keeping the right people in the right meetings, maintaining workstream hygiene, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks
- Collaborate closely with software engineers, workstream leads, customer engineering teams, and business development to drive progress on mining autonomy deployments
- Collaborate with customers to integrate and deliver mining autonomy solutions, coordinating across hardware and software teams to hit aggressive timelines
- Identify and implement AI-driven improvements to sprint workflows, reducing manual overhead and increasing team velocity
Job requirements
- 3–5 years of experience in technical program management, engineering, or a related field; candidates with a software engineering background transitioning into TPM are welcome
- Demonstrated ability to manage multiple complex customer projects simultaneously without losing attention to detail
- Experience with program management tools and methodologies (e.g., Jira, Confluence, Google Drive, sprint planning)
- Enough technical fluency to follow engineering discussions, parse software scoping tasks, and contribute meaningfully to sprint planning — coding experience is not required
- Strong organizational skills and a high bar for documentation hygiene across all customer deliverables
- A positive, adaptable attitude with the ability to context-switch quickly across customers and workstreams
