  • Own and evolve the system
  • Partner with engineering and tooling teams to build scalable infrastructure for mapping operations
  • Drive alignment across engineering, product, operations, tooling partners, and vendors through clear analysis and recommendations
  • how work flows, how quality is defined, how teams collaborate, and how our tools and processes evolve.
  • Identify the next operational unlock across workflow, tooling, partner coordination, policy, data, or emerging needs
  • Hold partners accountable to commitments while preserving strong working relationships

Requirements

  • 6+ years in program management, project management, operations, technical operations, or a related role in a software or technology environment
  • Experience working close to technical or operational systems, with a track record of designing, redesigning, or scaling how work gets done
  • AI-native instincts and practical experience applying AI to operational, analytical, or automation problems
  • Confidence under pressure, sound judgment in ambiguity, and the ability to help others stay focused through change
  • Experience in mapping, geospatial systems, autonomous vehicles, robotics, or related operational domains
  • Experience with offshore, distributed, or vendor teams
  • Strong stakeholder management, including the ability to push senior partners while maintaining trust
  • Executive-level communication and strong data fluency, including metrics, reporting, trend analysis, and structural decision-making
  • Bonus points
  • Prior people management or mentorship of junior PMs, operations specialists, or labeling teams
  • Demonstrated improvements to operational quality or throughput at scale
