About the Role

Patronus AI is a frontier lab developing simulation research and infrastructure to accelerate progress toward human-aligned AGI. This role will run the production line that turns frontier-lab demand into delivered RL environments, owning the path from signed work order through SME sourcing, environment build, task generation, QA, and delivery. Your work will help frontier labs stress-test and improve the next generation of AI agents, advancing progress toward safe, human-aligned general intelligence.

Responsibilities

Own delivery programs end-to-end: track work orders, deliverables, due dates, and owners across engineering, QA, and SME teams, and maintain the consolidated view the rest of the company plans against.
Manage scope changes mid-program, updating the plan, pricing inputs, and commitments.
Run the handoffs between GTM, SME sourcing, environment engineering, task generation, and QA, building processes to prevent work from getting stranded.
Define and enforce 'ready to ship' criteria, ensuring QA tickets are green and tasks pass in the customer's harness.
Work directly with customers alongside account leads to translate asks into plans and provide progress updates.
Ensure teams time-bound their work and make estimates explicit, holding everyone accountable.
Identify opportunities for automation and process improvements across the delivery pipeline and build them.
Stay hands-on by running agents, reviewing QA feedback, and building small tools to scale personal function.

Requirements

BS, MS, or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Engineering, or another technical / quantitative field.
3+ years as a technical program manager, delivery lead, engineering program manager, or similar role on complex, multi-team technical programs.
A track record of shipping when requirements move after kickoff, without letting quality or the customer relationship slip.
Strong technical fluency, including comfort using AI tools, reading or reviewing code, and analyzing data or model outputs.
Excellent organization and execution skills, with the ability to manage tasks, timelines, quality reviews, customer requirements, and cross-functional stakeholders.
Clear written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to translate customer asks into concrete plans with owners and dates.
Strong eye for quality and detail, with a bias toward catching edge cases, inconsistencies, and subtle failure modes before the customer does.
Proactive mindset, willingness to learn, unlimited energy, and relentless optimism.
Experience with reinforcement learning, agent evaluation, RL environments, or human-data / SME-sourced data pipelines (Nice to have).
Experience delivering to frontier labs or other research-driven customers with short turnaround expectations (Nice to have).
Experience standing up QA or review processes for software or data deliverables (Nice to have).
