Job details

Senior/Staff Technical Program Manager, Telematics

At Zoox, you’ll collaborate with a world-class team with diverse backgrounds in areas such as AI, robotics, machine learning, controls, computer vision, simulation, design, and automated testing.

Working at a startup gives you the chance to manifest your creativity and make a big difference in the final product.



As a technical program manager on our Telematics team, you will work with a highly cross-functional team including hardware, software, vehicle integration, and program management. You will lead and support the execution and implementation of Telematics systems that enable vehicle communications across multiple radio modalities, including LTE, 5G, WiFi, GNSS and others. You will develop project schedules to meet company milestones, align and track the team to intermediate checkpoints, gates, and milestones, identify and raise awareness of risks, and clearly communicate ongoing progress. As the end-to-end owner for this system of products, you will drive numerous cross-functional topics to conclusion, even if the locus of activity and discussion fall outside of the hardware world


In this Role, You will:
  • Work with team/department leads to translate milestones into detailed product roadmaps, timelines, and deliverables
  • Work with cross-functional stakeholders to define and track resource allocations
  • Define the deliverables: Align each team on the requirements for each milestone and define the benchmark for completing them
  • Establish standard reports to provide concise and effective communications to key stakeholders on program status, issues/risks, and accomplishments
  • Resolve or escalate issues: As issues arise, collaborate with the team to find a solution or mitigation
  • Support key decisions working cross-functionally across engineering, product, and strategy to reach the right conclusions
  • Maintain the team’s focus by minimizing distractions and identifying and mitigating hurdles


Qualifications
  • BS or MS degree in an engineering or equivalent experience
  • Experience with RF technologies including LTE, 5G, WiFi, GNSS, and others
  • 8+ years of experience in leading engineering teams and/or program management. Track record in managing complex, cross-functional hardware projects.
  • Hands-on experience with project management/reporting tools (i.e., SmartSheet, JIRA, Confluence) 
  • Ability to communicate clearly, lead by influence, and build strong relationships with team members and leadership


Bonus Qualifications
  • Experience in highly regulated industries (automotive, aerospace, etc.)
  • Hands-on experience in both hardware & software development projects
  • Experience in leading projects from concept to production
  • Hands-on experience working with suppliers
