- Manage complex technical programs from partner onboarding through to operational delivery and scaling.
- Coordinate across multiple internal teams, including ingest, data infrastructure, security, ML training, and engineering, to ensure the successful delivery of partner data.
- Build and maintain detailed delivery plans, milestones, risk registers, and communication structures for each partnership.
- Act as the primary operational point of contact for external partners and maintain strong working relationships.
- Adapt delivery plans and priorities in response to evolving company objectives and roadmap changes.
- Ensure partner data is successfully ingested, understood, enriched, and made available to downstream users and systems.
- Evangelise the value of external and partner data internally by sharing updates, availability summaries, and opportunities for greater impact.
- Work closely with commercial partnership managers to align operational execution with broader strategic objectives.
- Collaborate with engineering and data teams to improve processes for identifying and selecting the most valuable partner data.
- Help maintain internal roadmaps, data estimates, and operational forecasting related to external data partnerships.
- Experience managing complex technical programs involving external partners or customers.
- Strong stakeholder management skills with the ability to align cross-functional teams and external organisations.
- Excellent organisational and communication skills.
- Experience working in fast-paced, ambiguous environments with changing priorities.
- Strong technical fluency and the ability to understand topics such as sensor systems, cloud architectures, data movement, and security considerations.
- Proven ability to drive execution and deliver outcomes across multiple concurrent workstreams.
- Experience coordinating technical integrations, operational deployments, or distributed systems programs.
- Ability to balance strategic thinking with hands-on program delivery.
- Strong problem-solving skills and a proactive, adaptable mindset.
- Experience in autonomous vehicles, robotics, automotive, mobility, fleet operations, or telemetry/data platforms.
- Experience working with large-scale data collection or data supply programs.
- Familiarity with sensor technologies, vehicle systems, or telemetry infrastructure.
- Experience working with commercial fleets, ride-hailing companies, or mobility providers.
- Experience working with cloud-based data pipelines or distributed data systems.
- Previous experience in program management roles within highly technical organisations.
- Exposure to data operations, ML infrastructure, or AI product environments.
- Formal program or project management certifications (e.g. PMP, PRINCE2, Scrum) are beneficial but not required.
