Own the full lifecycle: drive program planning, multi-phase roadmaps, and gated milestones (design → development → integration → flight/field test → production → sustainment)
Deliver reliably: manage integrated master schedules (IMS), budgets, dependencies, and critical path; resolve blockers and course-correct fast
Lead cross-functional execution across autonomy software, embedded systems, perception, avionics/mechatronics, hardware, and manufacturing; align internal teams and vendors
Translate mission to engineering: capture customer/mission requirements, define success criteria, and ensure verification/validation and acceptance are unambiguous
Run program ceremonies: program increments, risk reviews, EACs, change control, and executive readouts; keep crisp, action-oriented communication
Manage risk aggressively: identify technical, schedule, supply, regulatory, and field risks; keep a living risk register with mitigations and triggers
Coordinate test & deployments: plan lab, range, and customer site tests; synthesize results into decisions and next-step plans
Your Profile
Proven experience in leading complex, technical hardware-software programs (robotics, autonomy, automotive, or adjacent)
Bachelor’s/Master’s in Engineering, CS, or related; technical depth to engage with senior engineers across autonomy, perception, embedded, and hardware
Track record shipping to production or fielding systems in regulated/mission-critical domains; mastery of schedule and execution
Fluency with program controls: risk registers, change management, supplier management, and quality gates
Excellent stakeholder communication—from engineers to executives to defense end-users; ruthless prioritization and clarity under ambiguity
Benefits and Perks
Competitive salary and benefits package
A shaping role in an emerging dual use company
Opportunity to work with a highly innovative, international, and dynamic team
Room for professional growth and development
Participation in the company's success, with access to regular events, knowledge exchange and meetups
