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 DoProject 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
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
