Senior 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. This role is ideal for engineers who possess strong project and people management capabilities, a passion for advanced technology, and a drive to solve complex problems. May Mobility seeks individuals dedicated to transforming the future of mobility.

This position is particularly well-suited for experienced engineers who not only possess robust project management skills but also demonstrate exceptional capabilities in people management. Ideal candidates will exhibit a profound passion for advanced technology and a relentless drive to solve intricate problems. May Mobility is committed to transforming the future of mobility, and we are looking for individuals who share this dedication and are eager to contribute significantly to our mission. TPMs at May Mobility will be instrumental in guiding projects from conception through to execution, ensuring successful delivery of groundbreaking autonomous solutions.

Role Overview :

  • Lead teams in addressing challenging problems within autonomous driving.
  • Conduct in-depth, data-driven problem analysis.
  • Clarify ambiguous requirements and prioritize competing technical tasks.
  • Proactively assess and mitigate risks.
  • Maintain detailed status tracking of projects.
  • Foster effective cross-functional collaboration with teams including autonomy, vehicle engineering, software, product, finance, and operations.

Location :

  • Hybrid role based at May Mobility HQ in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
  • Occasional travel to operational sites may be required.
  • Essential Responsibilities :

  • Collaborate cross-functionally to scope, plan, and track autonomy projects, providing leadership in decision-making.
  • Understand technical architectures, propose alternatives, clarify priorities, and identify process efficiencies.
  • Proactively remove obstacles, identify communication / schedule gaps, support teams with competing priorities, and drive results.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with internal and external partners, aligning their needs with May Mobility's product vision.
  • Guide autonomy engineering in developing tools and processes to identify risks and coordinate on-time, high-quality product delivery, with a focus on data-driven decisions.
  • Consolidate input from various teams to produce and distribute project work plans, procurement requests, statements of work, program plans, and Gantt charts. Lead teams without direct supervisory authority.
  • Coordinate and facilitate workshops, managing agendas, tracking progress, and ensuring accountability for outstanding items.
  • Provide regular, data-driven status updates on autonomy projects, including progress and risks.
  • Ensure effective communication and coordination between development and production teams.
  • Drive decisions based on data and champion the acquisition of necessary data for informed decision-making.
  • Required Skills and Abilities :

  • Technical understanding of driving data and autonomy development.
  • Ability to integrate data-driven insights with real-world experience for decision-making.
  • Comprehensive understanding of autonomy systems and the downstream impact of their components.
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to execute tasks to completion.
  • Proactive project leadership, focusing on achieving results rather than merely managing task lists.
  • Aptitude for clarifying and documenting complex requirements to facilitate efficient problem-solving.
  • Clear and concise communication of technical concepts, including root cause analysis, technical challenges, solutions, and data-backed results.
  • Effective communication with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Qualifications and Experience :

    Required :

  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience (Engineering, Computer Science, or a highly technical degree preferred).
  • Minimum of 2+ years of experience as an engineer or in project management, including team management, planning, status updates, and risk management (experience in fast-paced research and development environments is advantageous).
  • High level of initiative; enthusiastic about taking on challenges, even those outside core responsibilities, to ensure project success.
  • Strong understanding of software and hardware development lifecycles, ML feature cycles, data infrastructure / pipelines, AI product development, integration processes, and test / validation complexity, with an emphasis on SDLC.
  • Desirable :

  • Working knowledge of the autonomous vehicle industry.
  • Prior project / program management experience.
  • Understanding of startup dynamics and the ability to balance short-term goals with long-term vision.
  • Previous experience with autonomy systems.
  • Salary Range : $152,000 - $185,000 USD

    Benefits and Perks :

  • Comprehensive healthcare suite including medical, dental, vision, life, and disability plans. Domestic partners who have been residing together at least one year are also eligible to participate.
  • Health Savings and Flexible Spending Healthcare and Dependent Care Accounts available.
  • Rich retirement benefits, including an immediately vested employer safe harbor match.
  • Generous paid parental leave as well as a phased return to work.
  • Flexible vacation policy in addition to paid company holidays.
  • Total Wellness Program providing numerous resources for overall wellbeing.
  • Don't meet every single requirement? Studies have shown that women and / or people of color are less likely to apply to a job unless they meet every qualification. At May Mobility, we're committed to building a diverse, inclusive, and authentic workforce, so if you're excited about this role but your previous experience doesn't align perfectly with every qualification, we encourage you to apply anyway! You may be the perfect candidate for this or another role at May.
