## About the role

We are looking for a Technical Program Manager to drive execution of Applied Intuition's global autonomous trucking programs. You will own the milestones our OEM customers are measured against, lead new operational launches - including standing up operations at new sites, lanes, and regions - and keep engineering, operations, and customer teams moving against a single plan.

## What they're looking for

- Bachelor's degree in a STEM field or equivalent experience
- 5+ years of program or project management experience on advanced software, robotics, or autonomous vehicle programs (ADAS or L4 autonomy), including ownership of hard external deadlines
- Demonstrated ownership of a program launch or operational bring-up -a new site, facility, fleet, route, or region - from plan through steady state
- Track record running programs across distributed teams, sites, and time zones
- Ability to get deep into technical detail: enough systems-level understanding of hardware, software, and field operations to challenge a schedule you are handed rather than just publish it
- Communication skills that work in both directions - credible with engineers in a debug session and with OEM executives in a review
