Job Description:

Scale’s Robotics business unit is currently seeing historic levels of growth. As a Technical Program Manager (TPM) for Robotics Data, you will be the connective tissue across our most complex technical operations, driving initiatives that secure $XXM+ in new revenue. This isn't a 'sit back and watch' project management role. You will work with multiple project leads across a vast portfolio of robotics data projects, ensuring technical milestones are met, dependencies are de-risked, and stakeholders are aligned. You should be prepared to wear many hats - from debugging hardware rigs to architecting data pipelines - and be excited about intense, impactful work that leads to accelerated career progression.

Job Responsibility:

  • Drive Multi-Project Outcomes: Serve as the primary driver for a portfolio of robotics projects, tracking milestones, deliverables, and dependencies to ensure on-time delivery for the world’s leading AI researchers
  • Bridge the Technical-Operational Gap: Act as the central liaison between AI researchers, hardware engineers, and global operational teams to translate high-level research goals into executable data collection and annotation workflows
  • Architect Scalable Pipelines: Partner with engineering to design and optimize end-to-end data ingestion pipelines, ensuring they can handle the high-fidelity sensor data (video, logs, teleop) required for Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models
  • Manage Hardware & Logistics: Coordinate the setup, maintenance, and scaling of physical robotic platforms and data collection rigs across multiple sites
  • Enforce Data Quality & Governance: Define KPIs and Quality Assurance (QA) metrics to ensure datasets are high-fidelity, labeled correctly, and compliant with rigorous privacy and safety standards
  • Standardize for Scale: Develop and refine Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) that allow us to scale collection and annotation efforts across global, distributed teams
  • Communicate with Precision: Provide regular, data-driven progress updates to Scale’s executive team, utilizing SQL and dashboards to monitor performance and guide strategic pivots

Requirements:

  • Strong Technical Foundation: A degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, combined with a deep understanding of the AI/ML data lifecycle
  • 2-3+ Years of TPM Experience: Proven track record of managing complex, cross-functional technical programs, ideally in robotics, hardware, or large-scale data operations
  • Hands-on Problem Solving Skills: A proactive approach to overcoming technical and logistical roadblocks in a fast-paced environment
  • Operational Grit: Experience 'in the weeds' of operational challenges - you don’t just identify bottlenecks
  • you build the solution to clear them
  • Entrepreneurial Mindset: You are comfortable with ambiguity and excited about building infrastructure from scratch in a fast-paced environment

Nice to have:

  • SQL Proficiency: Ability to pull your own data and build your own tracking dashboards
  • Global Experience: Experience interacting with distributed teams or collection sites across different time zones
  • Robotics Domain Expertise: Familiarity with robotic hardware, sensor calibration, or the nuances of collecting data for Physical AI
  • AI/CV Knowledge: Familiarity with Computer Vision or Large Language Model (LLM) training requirements
What we offer:
  • Comprehensive health, dental and vision coverage
  • retirement benefits
  • a learning and development stipend
  • generous PTO
