OpenAI, Inc.; San Francisco (CA); In loco; USD 180.000 - 240.000; Tempo pieno

Descrizione del lavoro

OpenAI is seeking a Technical Program Manager for actuator development to own system goals through production readiness. You will coordinate across mechanical, electrical, firmware, and supply chain to deliver reliable actuator systems on schedule.

This in-person role is based in San Francisco, CA, requiring presence four days per week. You will drive scope, milestones, interfaces, and exit criteria across engineering teams, and lead validation from prototypes to production.

Mansioni

• Drive actuator programs end-to-end, aligning scope, milestones, interfaces, dependencies, and exit criteria across engineering teams.
• Drive scope lock and technical convergence for sprints, MVPs, and stretch goals while connecting component decisions to system performance.
• Coordinate actuator development across motors, gears, sensing, electronics, and firmware, and align the electrical and mechanical interfaces that connect actuators to the broader robot.
• Lead validation planning from early prototypes through engineering validation, reliability testing, and production readiness.
• Drive tradeoff decisions across cost, quality, performance, schedule, and lead time by collaborating cross-functionally and quantifying impact to meet program deliverables.
• Establish effective mechanisms for technical reviews, change control, design releases, decision tracking, and manufacturing readiness.
• Surface risks early and drive decisions, owners, and actions to closure.
