While much of the industry remains in R&D, we deliver real, production-ready autonomy that is already operating in the field.\nWe are on a mission to make mining operations safer, smarter, and more efficient through cutting-edge technology, and we are building toward becoming the world’s first profitable AV technology company.\nAbout the role\nThe NPI TPM owns the handoff between engineering and the field: taking a released kit design through first builds, pilot units, and full production ramp, across Hardware, EE, Firmware, Robotics, Software, Operations, and Manufacturing. This role sequences every new kit program end to end, whether it's a new sensor mast for an off-road mining platform or a new upfit kit for an on-road Class 8 tractor, and owns launch readiness for each one.\nThis is a cross-functional execution role, not a design role. The NPI TPM does not do the engineering; they make sure every team's work lands in the right order, dependencies are tracked before they cause a slip, and each program clears its build and QC gates before it moves forward.\nWhat you’ll do\nProgram Sequencing & Cross-Team Coordination: \nSequence each new kit program end to end across Hardware, EE, Firmware, Robotics, Software, Operations, and Manufacturing, so no team starts a step before its inputs are ready.\nOwn the master schedule for each active kit program, keeping design, build, and manufacturing milestones synchronized across teams.\nRun program syncs and design reviews, and drive open decisions to closure rather than let them linger across teams\n\nCross-Program Dependency Tracking\nTrack dependencies and shared resources across concurrent kit programs, and flag conflicts (like one team supporting two programs at once) before they cause a slip.\nMaintain a single source of truth for program status, blockers, and interdependencies.\nEscalate resourcing or sequencing conflicts to engineering and program leadership with a clear recommendation, not just a flag.\n\nLaunch Readiness & Build Transitions\nOwn the readiness criteria for each program gate: first-article build, pilot build, cut-in and ECO execution, and full production ramp.\nPartner with NPI and Manufacturing Engineering on DFM/DFA feedback, work instructions, and build/QC checklists, so designs released by engineering are actually buildable at volume.\nDrive the go/no-go decision at each gate, and own the retrospective when a gate is missed.\nField & Manufacturing Feedback Loop\nServe as the link between build and field issues and the engineering teams that own the design, closing the loop on defects found during test and pilot builds.\nMake sure lessons from one kit program's build issues carry into the next program's design and process, instead of being rediscovered from scratch.\nWhat we’re looking for\n5+ years in technical program or product management for hardware, with direct experience taking a hardware or electromechanical product from design release through pilot build and into production.\nBroad technical fluency across hardware, EE, firmware/software, and manufacturing, enough to sequence work and understand real blockers, without needing to be the deepest expert on any one team.\nTrack record owning a program schedule across four or more cross-functional teams with competing priorities.\nComfortable in ambiguity, including building a sequencing and tracking process where one doesn't fully exist yet.\nStrong written and verbal communication, with the ability to run a design review or gate meeting and drive it to a decision.\nNice to have\nExperience with autonomous vehicle, robotics, or heavy industrial equipment kit programs, on-road transport or off-road/mining.\nExperience with PLM or configuration management systems, BOM control, and ECO processes.\nFamiliarity with Linear or a similar tool for cross-team ticket and dependency tracking.\nPrior experience at a company scaling from a handful to a double-digit number of concurrent hardware programs.\nWhy join us \nWork on real, production-deployed autonomy.\nBuild technology that directly improves safety, efficiency, and productivity.\nTackle complex challenges in demanding, real-world environments.\nBe part of a fast-moving team with high ownership and impact.\nSee your work deployed and making a difference in the field.\nCollaborate closely with experienced engineers and industry operators.\nWhat else you need to know \nThis role is based in our San Francisco office location. As a company driven by innovation and continuous change, close collaboration is essential. We’re constantly reimagining our industry, creating new products, and refining our processes, and we do our best work together. That’s why all of our office-based teams work onsite, five days a week. \nThe base salary range for this role is$122,000 - 151,000 per year.\nActual compensation will be determined on an individual basis and may vary depending on experience, skills, and qualifications.\nBase salary is just one part of your total rewards package. You may also be eligible for equity awards and an annual performance-based bonus.\nBenefits Summary (USA Full-Time Exempt Employees):\nMedical, Dental, Vision, Disability, and Life Insurance\nFlexible Spending Account / Health Savings Account Options\n401(k)\nEquity\nSick Time, Unlimited Flexible Time Off, and Paid Holidays\nPaid Parental Leave \nPre-Tax Commuter Benefit Plan\nTeam lunch in our SoMa office every Tuesday and Thursday\nBenefits are subject to change at the company's discretion.\nPronto accepts applications on an ongoing basis.\nReady to join us as we serve those who serve others? \n#LI-Onsite","description_format":"text","description_chars":5800,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Flexible time off","Life insurance","Parental leave"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Autonomous Driving","Computer Vision","Mining & Heavy Industry Robotics"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-05T18:13:47Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 3 · green card filings: 1","filings_12m":3,"filings_prev_12m":0,"green_card_filings_12m":1,"median_offered_wage_usd":147500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-03T21:08:04+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)","US Department of Labor: PERM disclosure data (green cards)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":7,"reasons":["conf:1","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-06T05:45:30Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":151000,"is_top_pay":false},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/pronto-ai-technical-program-manager-new-product-integration","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/pronto-ai-technical-program-manager-new-product-integration.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-07T02:10:31Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":3576,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":1424,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-10-08T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":31458},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=31458"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fpronto-ai-technical-program-manager-new-product-integration"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fpronto-ai-technical-program-manager-new-product-integration"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fpronto-ai-technical-program-manager-new-product-integration"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/pronto-ai-technical-program-manager-new-product-integration\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fpronto-ai-technical-program-manager-new-product-integration"}]}
