Director Technical Program Manager, Software

What the role actually is

Collaborative Robotics is hiring a director-level TPM for robot software. The role guides software programs for Proxie across autonomy, localization, perception, navigation, robot behaviors, and fleet-management systems.

This is an executive-facing execution role rather than a pure people-management listing. The person would help make the software roadmap legible across engineering, hardware, customer operations, and company leadership.

What you would work on

• Lead software program planning and delivery for Proxie and future robot generations
• Coordinate autonomy, behavior, fleet, hardware, and customer operations dependencies
• Create decision frameworks for scope, schedule, resource, and technical tradeoffs
• Keep leadership aligned on the path from software capability to deployed robot behavior

What they are asking for

• Director-level technical program leadership for robotics, AI, or complex software systems
• Experience driving cross-functional execution through ambiguity and technical risk
• Strong communication with senior engineering, product, customer, and company leaders
• Ability to connect program plans to customer-centric robot outcomes

Why this one is worth a look

Director-level TPM roles in robotics are often where ambition meets reality. This one is worth watching because Collaborative Robotics' product promise depends on software behavior that feels reliable around people, not just impressive in a demo.
