• Partner closely with engineering, safety, autonomy, systems, validation, hardware, and infrastructure leaders to align execution with corporate milestones and safety goals
• Ensure dependencies and tradeoffs across hardware, software, compute, and safety initiatives are clearly understood and actively managed
• Enable predictable delivery by proactively identifying risks, resourcing gaps, and integration challenges
• Provide clear, executive‑ready communication on roadmap health, delivery status, safety implications, and key risks
• Foster a culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement within your TPM team

What You’ll Need to Succeed:

• Experience coaching and developing a team of technical product, program, or project managers, ideally within platform, infrastructure, or safety‑critical domains
• A strong track record of delivering large‑scale, cross‑functional programs involving complex technical and organizational dependencies
