Project Manager, Robotics Deployment

We are looking for a Project Manager, Robotics Deployment to keep our field deployments on schedule and on plan. You will build and maintain the project plans for deploying Field AI systems — including drones, quadrupeds, and humanoids — at customer sites, coordinate the engineers and operations staff who execute them, and be the person who knows the status of every workstream at any moment.

You'll interface directly with the customer and work alongside Field Application Engineers, hardware and software teams, and operations staff. This is a strong role for someone with a technical foundation who wants to grow into program ownership: you don't need to debug a robot yourself, but you do need to understand what broke, who fixes it, and what it does to the schedule.

This role is based in Singapore with occasional international travel.

What You'll Do

Project Planning & Tracking

• Build and maintain project plans for assigned deployments — tasks, owners, dates, dependencies, and readiness criteria

• Track progress against milestones and keep the plan current as conditions change in the field

• Maintain the issue and risk log for each deployment, escalating blockers to the deployment lead with context and options

• Prepare status reports, milestone readouts, and metrics summaries for internal and customer stakeholders

• Run recurring project meetings: agendas, notes, decisions, action items, and follow-through to closure

Deployment Execution Support

• Coordinate the logistics that make a deployment happen — equipment shipments, spares, tooling, site access, badging, safety documentation, and customer scheduling

• Support commissioning, field testing, and validation activities on site, capturing results against test plans and acceptance criteria

• Triage issues raised in the field: reproduce and document the problem, route it to the right engineering owner, and drive it to resolution

• Track open defects and customer requests through to closure, keeping the customer informed of status

Cross-Functional Coordination

• Coordinate across Software, Hardware, Robotics, Product, and Customer Success to confirm commitments and surface conflicts early

• Keep the deployment lead and engineering owners aligned on what's due, what's late, and what's at risk

• Capture customer feedback and deployment learnings in a structured form the product and engineering teams can act on

Documentation & Process

• Maintain deployment playbooks, checklists, standard operating procedures, and post-deployment retrospectives

• Keep project documentation and shared workspaces organized, current, and usable by the next person who runs the same deployment

• Identify recurring friction in the deployment process and propose improvements

What You Bring

Experience & Background

• 2–4 years of experience in project coordination, project management, technical operations, field operations, or a similar role supporting complex technical work

• Experience running projects with multiple stakeholders and moving dates, in an environment where plans change frequently

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Construction Management, Business, or a related field

• Strong Experience in a customer-facing or on-site setting is strongly preferred

Skills & Competencies

• Strong organizational skills and clear written communication: status updates, meeting notes, and issue write-ups that people actually read

• Comfortable working with planning and tracking tools such as Jira, or MS Project

• Able to hold engineers to commitments without authority over them, and to escalate constructively when that isn't enough

• Calm and resourceful in dynamic field conditions, where the schedule meets weather, site access, and hardware reality

• Comfortable working on site in industrial environments, including PPE requirements and site safety protocols

Industry & Technical Knowledge

• Enough technical literacy to follow discussions about robotic systems, sensors, networking, and Linux-based environments, and to summarize them accurately for others

• Exposure to robotics, autonomous systems, drones, or industrial automation is highly advantageous

• Familiarity with industrial customer environments — manufacturing, construction, mining, or energy — is a plus

• PMP or Scrum certification is a plus, not a requirement

• Basic scripting or data skills (Python, SQL, spreadsheets beyond the basics) for building status reporting are a plus
