About the Role

We are looking for a Technical Program Manager to own how robot data gets used within our research teams. This is a hands-on role where you will be the connective tissue between researchers, engineers, and operators, debugging teleoperation rigs and designing data ingestion workflows.

Responsibilities

• Own the end-to-end lifecycle of robotics data collection programs, from research requirements to delivered datasets.
• Translate research goals into concrete collection protocols, task designs, and quality bars.
• Run collection operations across multiple sites and teleoperators, keeping throughput, quality, and cost on track.
• Partner with engineering to build and improve pipelines for high-fidelity sensor data such as video, robot logs, and teleoperation trajectories.
• Set up and maintain physical collection rigs and hardware, and scale them as demand grows.
• Define and track KPIs like throughput, yield, cost per hour of data, and turnaround time.
• Identify and resolve bottlenecks.
• Ensure alignment on priorities and timelines across research, engineering, and field teams.

Requirements

• Track record running technical programs with real operational complexity.
• Comfort in the weeds of both hardware and data, able to reason about sensor rigs and data pipelines.
• Hands-on experience running data collection, not just managing it remotely.
• Strong grasp of data QA across the full path from collection to training, with the ability to diagnose and iterate data from unusable to training-ready.
• Data-driven mindset with a focus on measurement and improvement.
• Strong systems thinking and process design skills to build scalable workflows.
• High operational rigor and a bias for action in ambiguous, fast-moving conditions.
• Clear communication skills across research, engineering, and field teams.

• Python
• Robotics
