About nybl

nybl is a deep tech company revolutionizing how organizations harness data to drive intelligent decisions. Through our AI platform, we empower companies in energy, defense, healthcare, and beyond to unlock hidden potential and transform operations. In the energy sector, we're pioneering solutions that digitize and optimize artificial lift systems for maximum performance, uptime, and efficiency.

Role Overview

We are looking for a highly motivated and delivery-focused Project Manager (Product Delivery & Artificial Lift) to lead the successful execution of AI-powered solutions for artificial lift systems. This role is at the heart of our product delivery in the energy vertical, translating business goals and engineering innovation into high-impact products deployed in real-world oil & gas environments. As a key cross-functional leader, you will manage delivery from planning to deployment, aligning technical teams, domain experts, and clients to ensure product success across complex upstream operations.

Key Responsibilities

• Product Delivery Ownership – Own the delivery lifecycle for AI-driven artificial lift optimization solutions‑ensuring scope, quality, timeline, and budget are met. Act as the central coordinator between stakeholders, field teams, and internal development squads.
• Project Planning & Timeline Management – Develop and manage detailed project plans tailored to artificial lift deployment environments (ESP, rod lift, etc.). Coordinate closely with the Product Champion and energy domain experts to align delivery with client and field timelines.
• Resource Mobilization & Execution – Collaborate with Engineering, Data Science, and Field Implementation Leads to ensure the right resources are deployed at each stage. Proactively address resourcing gaps and technical bottlenecks during deployment.
• Delivery & Execution Oversight – Track execution progress across software, hardware integration, and field deployment milestones. Ensure all delivery activities comply with oilfield safety standards, client requirements, and technical specifications.
• Stakeholder Communication – Own stakeholder engagement across nybl and client teams including Petroleum Engineers, Production Optimization leads, and Operations Managers. Share clear, timely progress updates and manage escalations as needed.
• Agile Project Management – Serve as SCRUM Master where required; facilitate sprints, daily stand‑ups, and delivery retrospectives. Maintain full alignment between technical execution and product value delivery.
• Risk & Issue Management – Identify and mitigate risks related to field deployment, data acquisition, and integration with artificial lift control systems. Maintain and update risk registers, contingency plans, and resolution strategies.
• Domain Alignment – Work with internal AI and domain experts to align product functionality with artificial lift performance goals‑runtime optimization, failure prediction, efficiency tuning, etc. Translate oilfield data and feedback into actionable delivery plans and improvements.
• Documentation & Reporting – Maintain accurate and up-to-date project documentation including delivery logs, meeting notes, and issue trackers. Provide leadership with visibility into status, risks, and outcomes.

Qualifications & Skills

• 4-6 years of experience in product/project delivery or technical product management, ideally in the oil & gas or energy AI space.
• Experience managing cross-functional teams through field-based deployments.
• Strong understanding of artificial lift systems (ESP, gas lift, rod lift, etc.) and production optimization workflows.
• Background in agile methodologies and delivery tools (Jira, Confluence, MS Project, etc.).
• Excellent stakeholder communication and risk management abilities.
• Strong alignment with oilfield operations culture, safety requirements, and execution pressures.
• Bonus: exposure to AI/ML models, edge computing, or real‑time oilfield data platforms.

Why Join nybl?

• Build next-generation AI tools shaping the future of intelligent oilfield operations.
• Lead product execution that directly impacts uptime, production, and operational efficiency.
• Join a visionary team with the agility of a startup and the reach of a global technology leader.
• Work at the cutting edge of AI, energy, and field engineering—where your delivery matters.
