Technical Program Manager, ActuatorsActive$207K–$285K

The opportunity

Our Robotics team is focused on unlocking general-purpose robotics and advancing toward AGI-level intelligence in dynamic, real-world environments. Working across the full model and systems stack, we integrate cutting-edge hardware and software to explore a broad range of robotic form factors.

What you'll do

  • Drive actuator programs end-to-end, aligning scope, milestones, interfaces,: dependencies, and exit criteria across engineering teams.

  • Drive scope lock and technical convergence for sprints, MVPs, and stretch: goals while connecting component decisions to system performance.

  • Coordinate actuator development across motors, gears, sensing, electronics,: and firmware, and align the electrical and mechanical interfaces that connect actuators to the broader robot.

  • Lead validation planning from early prototypes through engineering: validation, reliability testing, and production readiness.

  • Drive tradeoff decisions across cost, quality, performance, schedule, and: lead time by collaborating cross-functionally and quantifying impact to meet program deliverables.

  • Establish effective mechanisms for technical reviews, change control, design: releases, decision tracking, and manufacturing readiness.

What they're looking for

  • Surface risks early and drive decisions, owners, and actions to closure.
  • Have led complex electromechanical hardware programs from development through manufacturing.
  • Are equally comfortable reasoning about an actuator’s internal architecture: and how it integrates into the larger system through PCBAs, connectors, cables,etc.
  • Can work effectively across ME, EE, firmware, interconnecting harnesses,: controls, test, reliability, manufacturing, and supply chain.
