  • Manage scheduling, staffing, equipment utilization, and materials to maximize productivity and minimize downtime.
  • Monitor system health and operational readiness, proactively identifying and resolving bottlenecks before they impact delivery.
  • Develop, implement, and monitor key performance indicators (KPIs) including throughput, utilization, quality, cycle time, equipment uptime, and on-time delivery.
  • Establish scalable quality assurance processes to ensure all datasets meet production standards before delivery.
  • Own the lifecycle of data collection projects from intake through successful delivery, providing clear communication and status updates to stakeholders.
  • Drive root cause analysis for operational issues and implement corrective actions to prevent recurrence.
  • Build and continuously improve standard operating procedures (SOPs), training programs, and documentation to enable scalable growth.
  • Identify opportunities to automate workflows, improve tooling, and increase operational efficiency through data-driven decision making.
  • Foster a culture of safety, operational excellence, and continuous learning across the organization.

Who You Are
  • Proven experience leading operations, production, or technical programs in a fast-paced environment.
  • Strong people leader with experience coaching, developing, and managing high-performing teams.
  • Excellent project management skills with the ability to coordinate multiple priorities simultaneously.
  • Comfortable making data-driven decisions using operational metrics and performance dashboards.
  • Exceptional problem solver who thrives in ambiguous environments and acts with urgency.
  • Strong organizational skills with outstanding attention to detail and execution.
  • Effective cross-functional communicator capable of working closely with engineering, product, and operations teams.
  • Experience building or improving operational processes, SOPs, and quality systems.
  • Demonstrated ability to identify operational bottlenecks and implement scalable improvements.
  • Passion for building efficient systems that enable cutting-edge AI and robotics development.

Why You'll Love Working Here
