  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate software and autonomy solutions seamlessly.
  • Establish and drive strategic vision and goals, with an emphasis on delivery and market impact.
  • Keep abreast of industry trends and technological advancements, integrating them to enhance delivery.
  • Effectively manage resources, timelines, and budgets, focusing on delivery metrics and milestones.

Minimum Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Robotics, Software Engineering, or a related field.
  • At least 8 years in software development, with a specific focus on deployed autonomy systems.
  • A minimum of 3 years in a leadership role, managing engineering teams and ensuring project delivery.
  • Strong background in machine learning, AI, computer vision, and deploying and scaling cloud infrastructure and data analytics.
  • Proficiency in programming languages such as Python, C++, or their equivalents.
  • Demonstrated ability to solve complex problems, coupled with strong leadership and communication skills.
  • A track record of delivering complex software projects punctually and within budget.
  • A highly motivated team player with excellent oral and written communication skills.
  • Enthusiasm for working in a dynamic start-up environment.
  • Availability for occasional travel.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Advanced degree (Master’s or Ph.D.) in Computer Science, Robotics, AI, or a related field.
  • Practical contributions to AI, machine learning, or robotics projects.
  • Previous high-level leadership experience in a robotics or AI-focused organization, with a history of successful project delivery.
  • Skilled in agile project management, lean methodologies, and resource optimization.
  • Familiarity with robotic operating systems (ROS) and autonomous control systems.
  • 3+ years managing ML research scientists and engineers.
  • Experience in leading the development of transformer models for autonomy applications.

The annual base salary for this position is $225,000, plus equity and comprehensive benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role and experience level.
