This individual will serve as the primary bridge between customer executives and Field AI’s Product, Solutions, Engineering, and Delivery teams, ensuring that each engagement achieves its technical, operational, and business objectives.\nThe ideal candidate combines executive-level communication skills with disciplined program leadership and a strong understanding of how sophisticated technology solutions are developed and deployed. You will oversee multiple interdependent workstreams, establish clear accountability across internal and customer teams, and indirectly lead Technical Project Managers responsible for individual development and deployment projects.\nThis is a highly visible role requiring professionalism, sound judgment, and the ability to build trust with senior stakeholders while driving teams toward measurable results.\nKey Responsibilities\nLead the planning and execution of large, complex customer programs from initial scoping through development, deployment, and operational handoff.\n\nServe as the primary program-level interface between executive customer stakeholders and Field AI’s Product, Solutions, Engineering, and Delivery organizations.\n\nTranslate customer business objectives into clear program requirements, priorities, milestones, and success criteria.\n\nDevelop and maintain integrated program plans covering scope, schedules, budgets, resources, dependencies, risks, and deliverables.\n\nIndirectly lead and coordinate a team of Technical Project Managers, ensuring that individual workstreams remain aligned with overall program objectives.\n\nEstablish effective program governance, including executive steering meetings, operating reviews, status reporting, decision-making processes, and escalation paths.\n\nCommunicate program progress, risks, tradeoffs, and decisions clearly to both executive and technical audiences.\n\nProactively identify and resolve execution challenges, cross-functional dependencies, resource constraints, and changes in scope.\n\nPartner with Product and Engineering leaders to align customer commitments with product roadmaps, technical feasibility, and organizational capacity.\n\nManage customer expectations while maintaining strong relationships and a high standard of professionalism.\n\nMonitor project financial performance and ensure programs are delivered on time, within budget, and in accordance with contractual commitments.\n\nDrive accountability across internal and external teams without relying solely on direct reporting authority.\n\nCapture lessons learned and continuously improve Field AI’s enterprise program-management practices, tools, and processes.\n\nSupport the expansion of successful customer programs from initial deployments into broader enterprise-scale adoption.\n\nQualifications\n10+ years of project or program management experience, including significant responsibility for large, complex, customer-facing technology programs.\n\nDemonstrated success delivering projects on time and within budget while managing multiple teams, workstreams, and organizational dependencies.\n\nExperience working at a technology company, preferably in enterprise software, robotics, artificial intelligence, industrial technology, automation, or another technically complex environment.\n\nProven ability to engage and influence executive-level customer stakeholders.\n\nExperience coordinating technical delivery teams and providing leadership to project managers or other cross-functional workstream owners.\n\nStrong understanding of product-development and technology-delivery lifecycles.\n\nExceptional written, verbal, and presentation skills, with the ability to communicate complex information clearly and concisely.\n\nStrong financial and commercial judgment, including experience managing program budgets, scope changes, and contractual deliverables.\n\nExcellent organizational skills and the ability to bring structure, clarity, and accountability to ambiguous or rapidly evolving situations.\n\nProfessional presence, sound judgment, and a customer-oriented mindset.\n\nAbility to influence and drive results across teams without direct authority.\n\nBachelor’s degree in business, engineering, computer science, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.\n\nPreferred Qualifications\nExperience delivering technology solutions for customers in energy, manufacturing, construction, logistics, automotive, mining, or other industrial sectors.\n\nExperience with enterprise robotics, autonomous systems, AI, or hardware-and-software deployments.\n\nExperience managing programs that include product development, systems integration, field deployment, and organizational change.\n\nFamiliarity with industrial operating environments, safety requirements, and customer procurement or governance processes.\n\nProject or program management certification, such as PMP, PgMP, or an equivalent credential.\n\nWhat Success Looks Like\nStrategic customer programs have clearly defined objectives, ownership, milestones, and success criteria.\n\nCustomer executives have confidence in Field AI’s plans, communication, and ability to deliver.\n\nTechnical Project Managers and cross-functional teams operate from an aligned, integrated program plan.\n\nRisks and dependencies are surfaced early, decisions are made promptly, and issues are resolved before they affect critical commitments.\n\nPrograms consistently meet their delivery, budget, quality, and customer-satisfaction goals.\n\nSuccessful deployments create a foundation for long-term customer relationships and enterprise-wide expansion.\n\nWhy Join Field AI?\nJoin a hypergrowth robotics company bringing cutting-edge autonomous technology to some of the world’s most important industrial organizations. You will lead high-impact programs at the intersection of artificial intelligence, robotics, and real-world operations, working alongside world-class engineers and influential customer leaders.
