Responsibilities

    • Own end-to-end program management for core algorithm development initiatives, from early research and data collection through model development, validation, and production deployment
    • Partner with leadership to translate algorithm and sensing strategy into executable program plans with clear milestones, dependencies, risk profiles, and success criteria
    • Plan and manage algorithm development timelines with full awareness of cross-functional dependencies across data collection, signal processing, software, firmware, and product teams
    • Drive cross-functional alignment by working directly with product managers, engineering leads, and data collection groups to ensure shared understanding of priorities, timelines, and deliverables
    • Proactively identify future risks, obstacles, and dependencies before they become blockers; develop and drive mitigation plans
    • Report program status, risks, and key decisions to leadership with clarity and precision; flag issues early and with proposed solutions
    • Facilitate and maintain program governance including planning cadences, design reviews, decision forums, and cross-team syncs
    • Build and continuously improve AI-enabled tools, workflows, and automations to increase program management effectiveness, including status tracking, dependency mapping, risk monitoring, and stakeholder communication

Qualifications

    • 4+ years of experience in technical program or project management, with direct experience supporting AI/ML, data science, or algorithm development teams
    • Demonstrated understanding of the ML development lifecycle, including data collection, model training, evaluation, validation, and deployment
    • Fluency with AI tools (e.g., LLMs, automation platforms, workflow builders) and a demonstrated track record of building or adopting AI-powered workflows to increase speed and scale of program execution
    • Ability to understand technical concepts deeply enough to identify risks, ask critical questions, and facilitate resolution of blockers across ML, data, software, and firmware workstreams
    • Experience managing complex, multi-team programs with significant cross-functional dependencies
    • Clear, confident communicator who can bridge deeply technical ML teams with product and business stakeholders
