Senior Technical Program Manager, Robotics at Scaleai · LumiJobs · LumiJobs

Responsibilities

Cross-Functional Program Leadership: Serve as the primary driver of alignment between all major stakeholder groups (Engineering, Operations, Solutions, Product, GTM, etc.), ensuring shared milestones, OKRs, and clear ownership.
Program Lifecycle Management: End-to-end ownership of complex programs. Define program scope, build comprehensive schedules, manage dependencies, and aggressively mitigate risks to ensure on-time delivery.
Communication Visibility: Establish a single source of truth for program status. Author clear program documentation, maintain schedules, and provide regular, high-impact updates to executive leadership.
Navigating Ambiguity Pathfinding: Thrive in a highly fluid, rapidly evolving environment. As the first cross-functional TPM in this space, you will frequently face ill-defined problems, shifting priorities, and missing processes. You are expected to proactively chart a path forward, make sound decisions with incomplete data, and establish structure where none exists.
Tactical Execution Grit: Operate with a deep, hands-on approach. You are not just a high-level coordinator; you are willing to roll up your sleeves and dive into the details—whether that means managing hardware release schedules, running sprint planning meetings, or manually auditing data to solve a critical issue.
Process Establishment: Design and implement scalable frameworks, tools, and communication cadences to optimize how our Eng and Ops teams collaborate.
Ideally you d have:
Experience: 5+ years of experience as a TPM, Product Manager, or Lead Engineer managing complex, deeply technical programs.
Cross-Functional Mastery: Demonstrated success managing programs that span both engineering / R D and operational environments.
Problem Solving: Exceptional ability to navigate ambiguity, build structure out of chaos, and influence senior stakeholders without formal authority.
Technical Literacy: Strong technical foundation allowing you to actively participate in architecture reviews and credibly challenge/evaluate technical trade-offs with both HW and SW engineers.
Education: Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Robotics, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
