Job Summary

Mersino is seeking an innovative and strategically minded IoT Program Manager to lead the growth and execution of our proprietary telemetry and remote operations platform, Messenger / Mersino Connect. This role is responsible for driving the technical direction, overseeing daily program operations, managing cross-functional teams, and helping shape the long-term roadmap for how our company uses remote data, automation, and intelligent controls to improve pump performance and project outcomes.

• Execute roadmap priorities as defined by senior leadership, while proactively developing and pitching new ideas, enhancements, and efficiencies
• Serve as the primary program owner, leading prioritization, coordination, and execution across software, hardware, AI, and customer-focused workstreams
• Collaborate with IT, Sales, Field Operations, and Engineering to ensure development efforts align with real-world usage and operational goals
• Directly manage a team of seven employees, including telemetry technicians, programmers, help desk staff, and developers
• Lead hiring, coaching, performance reviews, and team structure as the program evolves
• Set internal processes and KPIs for tracking team deliverables, development velocity, and program milestones
• Drive continued development of the Messenger / Connect ecosystem, ensuring platform scalability, reliability, and practical impact
• Oversee the integration of new features and hardware across field and digital systems
• Ensure all system enhancements are user-tested, documented, and deployed with clarity and accountability
• Serve as a champion for AI readiness by helping conceptualize future applications that increase automation, monitoring, and intelligent alerting within the system
• Promote Messenger / Connect capabilities to internal and external stakeholders in a clear, practical, and value-driven manner
• Maintain high-quality documentation for features, SOPs, training, and operational use, including communicating status updates to leadership.
