Autonomy Technical Project Manager

May Mobility is transforming cities through autonomous technology to create a safer, greener, more accessible world. Based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, May develops and deploys autonomous vehicles (AVs) powered by our innovative Multi-Policy Decision Making (MPDM) technology that literally reimagines the way AVs think.

Our vehicles do more than just drive themselves - they provide value to communities, bridge public transit gaps and move people where they need to go safely, easily and with a lot more fun. We’re building the world’s best autonomy system to reimagine transit by minimizing congestion, expanding access and encouraging better land use in order to foster more green, vibrant and livable spaces.

Since our founding in 2017, we’ve given more than 300,000 autonomy-enabled rides to real people around the globe. And we’re just getting started. We’re hiring people who share our passion for building the future, today, solving real-world problems and seeing the impact of their work. Join us.

May Mobility is looking for highly motivated, activated, and energetic technical project managers who can lead teams to solve some of the hardest problems in autonomous driving. Work will include: leading teams to deeply analyze and understand problems through data, clarifying fuzzy requirements and prioritizing competing technical tasks, assessing and aggressively mitigating risks, and detail oriented status tracking. Technical project managers at May coordinate frequently and effectively across all company functions including autonomy, vehicle engineering, software, product, finance, and operations.

• Work cross-functionally with autonomy, engineering, product, customer operations, finance, and strategy teams to scope, plan and track the various autonomy projects. Provide leadership in decision making.
• Understand technical implementation at the architectural level and propose alternatives when necessary, ask questions that clarify priorities and look for process efficiencies. Take command in setting priorities based on information available and insight gained.
• Proactively remove obstacles to drive momentum and progress, identify gaps in communication or schedule, provide support to teams balancing competing priorities and drive results through actions.
• Build and maintain relationships with May Mobility’s internal and external partners, understand their needs and drive alignment with May Mobility’s product vision.
• Help lead autonomy engineering focusing on autonomy features to build tools and processes to identify risks and coordinate on-time and high quality product delivery, specifically identifying data needed to drive decisions.
• Consolidate input from autonomy, engineering, safety, legal, and business teams to produce and distribute project work plans;
  Requests for Procurement, Statements of Work, Program Plans, and Gantt charts. Must have the ability to lead the team without direct reports with ownership of duties, along with follow up and corrections as needed.
• Coordinate and drive workshops with partners; build agenda, track progress and be responsible for outstanding items and next steps. Be a reliable problem solver with critical and creative thinking skills that drive the business forward.
• Provide regular status updates on autonomy projects and program progress and risks based on data driven decisions.
• Coordinate and communicate effectively between development and production teams.
• Drive decisions based on data and drive data needs to make sound decisions.

• Technical understanding of driving data and autonomy development.
• Understanding how to make decisions based on data in conjunction with real-world experience.
• Understanding of autonomy systems and various components and their downstream impact.
• Ability to track details and execute tasks through completion.
• Taking command of project(s) while gathering data to drive towards results - not just task lists.
• Ability to clarify and document fuzzy requirements and challenges such that a project team can efficiently and effectively solve problems.
• An ability to clearly and concisely communicate technical concepts including root…
