Step inside the world of self-driving freight, powered by the Aurora Driver. Delivering the benefits of self-driving technology safely, quickly, and broadly. Backed by Greylock, Index and Lightspeed.
About the role
Serve as the direct escalation point for all Program Managers' workstreams during the Saturday-Sunday coverage window, resolving first-tier test execution questions and issues and looping in the right people (Engineering, Safety, Operations, leadership) when they exceed first-tier scope. Own and execute pre-built response playbooks and flag gaps in those playbooks back to the weekday teams
What they're looking for
- Aurora hires talented people with diverse backgrounds who are ready to help build a transportation ecosystem that will make our roads safer, get crucial goods where they need to go, and make mobility more efficient and accessible for all
- This role requires breadth over depth: rather than owning a single engineering relationship, you need working fluency across all the workstreams the team supports so you can triage confidently on your own during the window when the rest of the team is offline
- 5+ years of experience in Program Management, Project Management, Product Operations, Technical Operations, or a related role
- Demonstrated ability to operate independently and make sound first-tier decisions without real-time access to the full weekday team or leadership
- Working knowledge across multiple engineering/test workstreams, with the ability to quickly get oriented on unfamiliar issues
- Ability to develop a functional understanding of hardware/software stacks, including how sensors, calibration, and software versions interact to impact vehicle behavior
