## About the role

We're looking for a Senior/Staff Technical Program Manager, AI Research to help scale how research programs come together at Rhoda. This is a deeply technical, cross-functional execution role at the intersection of pre-training, post-training, applied research, data, GPU infrastructure, robotic hardware, and customer-facing model delivery. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Significant technical program management experience delivering complex, interdependent work across software, ML, research infrastructure, robotics, or similarly technical organizations, senior or staff-level judgment
- Strong understanding of the machine learning development lifecycle, including datasets, model training, evaluation, iteration, and the practical challenges of moving models into production
- Demonstrated ability to build an execution system from an ambiguous starting point, identify true critical dependencies, and drive progress across teams without direct reporting authority
- Technical fluency sufficient to work credibly with researchers and infrastructure engineers, ask the right questions, and present real trade-offs—not just collect status
- Experience coordinating constrained engineering resources, such as compute capacity, test systems, labs, hardware platforms, or specialized teams
- Excellent written and verbal communication, including the ability to turn many threads of technical work into a concise, decision-ready view for leadership
