Technical Program Manager (Data Operations)

Join Wayve as a Technical Program Manager in Data Operations. You will be responsible for managing the end-to-end delivery of data and annotation operations, working across various teams and external suppliers. Your impact will be measured by the reliability of data work and your ability to create clarity and unblock progress. You will also have the opportunity to improve processes and support self-serve users.

• Assurer la gestion des demandes de manière proactive, en coordonnant l'estimation, la planification et l'exécution des projets.
• Établir des relations solides avec les parties prenantes, en clarifiant les attentes et en garantissant que les objectifs sont atteints.
• Identifier et mettre en œuvre des améliorations continues dans les processus d'intake, de ticketing et de reporting.
• Strong stakeholder management and comfort with ambiguity: you create clarity from underspecified asks and stay neutral and constructive when priorities compete
• Growth mindset: open to feedback and always improving how the work gets done
• Systems thinking: You reason about how the parts of a complex system fit together, and how a change in one area ripples into others
• Technically fluent enough to coordinate: comfortable working with engineers and data science / ML and reasoning about data and pipelines, even though you won't write production code
• Bias for action: ~3+ years in program, delivery, or operations coordination (TPM, project / program coordinator, or similar). You get things done and deliver reliably within a defined scope
• Brings structure without slowing things down: proactive risk and issue management; escalates early with clear options
• Product-minded: You focus on outcomes and the people your programs serve - prioritising by impact and defining what good looks like, not just tracking activity
• Collaborative: you influence without authority and build trust across teams and suppliers
• Clear, frequent communicator: you keep many parties aligned with timely, tailored updates
• Exposure to ML / data pipelines, autonomy, or robotics
• We understand that everyone has a unique set of skills and experiences and that not everyone will meet all of the requirements listed above. If you’re passionate about self-driving cars and think you have what it takes to make a positive impact on the world, we encourage you to apply
• Experience in data operations, annotation / labelling workflows, or external vendor / supplier management
• Comfortable with Jira (or similar) and with workflow automation
