Senior/Staff technical program manager driving software-hardware integration for Zoox's autonomy stack, covering cameras, lidars, radars, compute platforms, and vehicle integration. Owns the integrated HW-SW roadmap, project schedules, risk tracking, and executive status presentations across perception, planning, and vehicle platform teams. Requires 10+ years of engineering program management and tools such as JIRA and Smartsheet.
Zoox has embarked on a highly ambitious journey to develop a full-stack autonomous mobility solution for our cities. As a technical program manager, you will work cross-functionally with engineering leaders across software, hardware, vehicle engineering, and product to drive our corporate strategy into tactical and detailed road maps that facilitate effective execution at each stage of our growth curve. You will work with each engineering team to develop project schedules, identify milestones, flag risks, estimate budgets, and clearly communicate ongoing progress.
In this role, you will:
- Work with SW and HW engineering leaders and their TPMs (Perception, Prediction & Behavioral ML, TeleGuidance, Planning & Controls, Collision Avoidance System, Sensors, Compute, Vehicle Platform) to build one integrated HW-SW roadmap, timeline and set of deliverables
- Drive HW-SW integration programs end to end. This covers sensor bring-up (cameras, lidars, radars), compute platform transitions (GPU, memory, SoC) and how they affect Autonomy software performance, latency and resource budgets
- Line up SW release trains and vehicle integration milestones, and manage the dependencies and handoffs between teams
- Drive cross-functional Autonomy teams to build and ship solutions that improve driving behavior
- Find HW-SW integration and program risks early, and build plans to reduce them
- Build and deliver executive presentations on program status, issues, risks and accomplishments
