We are hiring a Technical Program Manager to cover two areas of operation in a single seat. Roughly half the role is release management across upcoming infotainment software releases, owning the metrics and the daily drumbeat that keep a release on schedule and escalating what needs a decision. The other half is hands-on technical program management for the cloud-gateway service on the vehicle software team, driving sprint execution and owning the roadmap and the interface agreements that connect the vehicle to the cloud.

This is a role for a TPM who is comfortable moving between executive-level reporting and day-to-day ticket-level execution in the same week. You will work directly with engineering managers, developers, cloud partners, middleware partners and the heads of PMO.

Responsibilities

Release management

• Define and report on metrics that highlight the health of upcoming software releases
• Drive closure and provide daily updates for open tickets that are on the critical path for upcoming software releases
• Escalate risks and decisions needed to the heads of PMO

Cloud technical program management

• Drive tactical sprint execution for the cloud-gateway service on the vehicle software team
• Work with the engineering manager and developers to ensure a steady flow of actionable tickets are groomed and ready for implementation
• Define and maintain a long-term roadmap for the cloud relevant integrations
• Work with cloud partners to finalize vehicle-cloud data contracts for all relevant integrations
• Work with middleware partners to finalize cloud-gateway interfaces with the rest of the vehicle
