Head of Technical Programme Management

Technical Program Manager

Location- onsite Sterling, VA- Full time

We're building robotic systems that make electronics manufacturing circular. Using robotics, computational design, and AI, our systems turn today's e-waste into resilient, data-driven supply chains—and change how electronics are made in the first place.

We're looking for a Technical Program Manager who thrives at the intersection of engineering and execution. You'll lead complex technical programs from concept through delivery, partnering closely with Engineering, Product, and Business teams to ensure we're building the right things—and delivering them with quality, speed, and predictability.

This role requires deep expertise in software development programs, combined with a strong systems mindset. While your primary focus will be driving software execution, you'll also coordinate work spanning hardware, firmware, robotics, and manufacturing. Lead complex technical programs from planning through successful delivery, ensuring milestones, dependencies, and priorities stay aligned.

Drive execution across Software, Robotics, Hardware, Firmware, Product, and Business teams.

Build and maintain integrated program plans that account for cross-functional dependencies across multiple engineering disciplines.

Identify risks early, remove blockers, and proactively drive decisions before they impact delivery.

Partner with engineering leaders to balance scope, quality, and delivery schedules in a fast-moving startup environment.

Establish lightweight, scalable program management practices that improve visibility and execution without adding unnecessary processes.

Reporting structure: This role reports directly to the Director of Software.

You possess deep knowledge of modern software development lifecycles and are comfortable partnering closely with software engineering teams throughout planning, development, testing, and release.

You have a strong systems perspective and understand how software interacts with hardware, firmware, robotics, and manufacturing to deliver integrated products.

You've successfully managed multidisciplinary engineering programs involving hardware and software. Experience in robotics, embedded systems, autonomous systems, industrial automation, IoT, or other complex physical products is highly preferred.

We spend our days building robotic systems, developing complex assembly intelligence software, and designing the next generation of circular products for our customers. Given the importance of working hands-on with physical systems, we are a 100% in-person team collaboratively working in our industrial space in Sterling, VA, down the road from the largest data center market in the world. Our facility includes a variety of robots, CNC milling machines, 3D printers, and all the tools needed to build and test our products. It is important to us that anyone on our team that is interested in learning how to use our various pieces of equipment and machinery is taught and can gain the skills and appreciation for making physical things.

As a growing company and startup, priorities may shift as customer or business requirements change.
