About the role

This is a career-defining opportunity to play a crucial role in a hyper-scale AI company that is transforming the future of autonomous systems, energy, and the built environment.
This role will serve as the operational bridge between AI systems and physical infrastructure.
We are looking for an autonomous‑buildings deployment and operations leader, someone who treats deployments as a structured learning system.

Deployment Strategy & Operational Leadership Lead global deployment operations for autonomous HVAC and building systems.
Lead both Application Engineering and Deployment teams, including oversight of external deployment contractors.
Identify, vet, hire, and manage local installers and contractors globally.
Application Engineering (Digital Twin Project Deployment) Digital Twin Modeling: Create the building's digital twin by modeling spaces, equipment, and system relationships using PassiveLogic's ontology framework.
System Integration: Connect the digital twin to building infrastructure including HVAC systems, sensors, and meters.
Autonomous Control Deployment: Configure and deploy PassiveLogic control models to optimize building performance, energy use, and occupant comfort.
Commissioning & Optimization: Validate, calibrate, and continuously refine the digital twin to ensure accurate building behavior and improved operational efficiency.
Build repeatable deployment playbooks that improve with each rollout.
What You'll Bring You understand buildings, building science, HVAC, or controls deeply enough to operate confidently in the field, but you plan like a project manager, and lead like the supervisor of an intelligent, autonomous space.
At the same time, you collaborate productively with AI engineers, autonomy researchers, and software architects.

You can speak fluently with field technicians, commissioning agents, and facility operators.
You are tech‑forward and future‑oriented.
You are comfortable in mechanical rooms as well as in deep technical discussions.
You are motivated by autonomy, robotics, and the future of intelligent infrastructure.

24/7 incident and change management of autonomous operations.
Establish structured rollout plans, deployment phases, and operational playbooks.
Ensure deployments meet schedule, quality, and performance targets.
Deployment Planning & Construction Coordination Plan phased deployments across customer sites.

Think in terms of autonomy skill rollouts, validation loops, and structured field learning, shifting away from traditional controls installs.
