Job summary

Mariana Minerals is seeking a Technical Product Manager to own the ML platform, simulators, and robotics initiatives that connect our applied AI/ML organization with software engineering. You will define direction, align stakeholders, and enable engineers to stay heads-down on meaningful work.

You will shape the path to autonomous processes and trustworthy models, while bridging teams across operators, engineers, and leadership.

Qualifications

  • 4–8+ years in technical product management, ML platform or robotics product roles, or equivalent experience leading cross-disciplinary technical programs.
  • Comfortable being the only PM in a highly technical room — you know when to drive a decision, when to defer to engineers, and how to build credibility without being the most technical person there.
  • Enough depth in ML systems — training, evaluation, deployment, perception, simulation — to earn credibility with both ML engineers and software engineers, and to know when a technical answer is a good one.
  • Track record of bringing structure to ambiguous, cross-functional initiatives: setting direction, aligning stakeholders, and owning outcomes end-to-end.
  • Strong prioritization and tradeoff skills — you know when to say no, and you say it visibly.
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication across audiences, from ML engineers to operators to executives

Responsibilities

  • Talk to our internal teams constantly — operators, process engineers, and MLEs are your users, and their problems set the roadmap.
  • Own the roadmap for the ML platform: which capabilities it needs next, for which use cases, and why.
  • Write the product specs, KPIs, and success metrics that turn ambiguous ML and autonomy asks into scoped, shippable work.
  • Own prioritization and stakeholder alignment so MLEs stay focused on deep technical work.
  • Own the path to process autonomy — models that inform, and increasingly set, process and chemical operating decisions — and the simulators that underpin it.
  • Own the roadmap for vision, sensor, and robotics initiatives: which plant problems get a model or a robot first, and what "good enough to deploy" means for each.
  • Own the seam between the applied AI/ML org and the software engineering org, and the boundary with MarianaOS, so nothing falls in the gap.
  • Define what it takes for a model, simulator, or robot to be trusted in production, and be explicit about which initiatives won't be pursued.
