• Identify, assess, and prioritize RPA and AI-driven automation opportunities with business stakeholders. • Define and maintain the enterprise automation roadmap aligned with business strategy and ROI. • Lead process discovery, feasibility analysis, and solution design (PDDs, SDDs). • Oversee development, testing, deployment, and support of RPA bots and AI-enabled automations. • Incorporate AI capabilities such as IDP/OCR, NLP, ML, and GenAI where appropriate. • Establish and enforce automation standards, governance, security, and best practices. • Lead and mentor automation teams; conduct design and code reviews. • Serve as the primary liaison between business, IT, and leadership, communicating progress and value.

• Own the Roadmap: Define the vision and feature set for our internal Robotics Data Platform. This tool must handle complex multimodal data types specific to robotics datasets. • Engineering Management: Act as the Product Owner for a dedicated team of software engineers. Translate business requirements into technical user stories, manage sprint priorities, and ensure the infrastructure is scalable and secure. • UX & Workflow Design: Design the interfaces to maximize efficiency for human annotators working on complex tasks. • Pipeline Architecture: Define the requirements for high-volume data ingestion pipelines. You will direct the engineering team on how to architect systems that ingest raw data from disparate sources and prepare it for the labeling platform. • Quality Control Systems: Spec out automated programmatic QA features to be built into the tool, reducing the reliance on manual review. • Technical Translation: Participating in discussions with leading robotics labs and foundation model builders. Translate their high-level objectives into data collection protocols and platform feature requirements. • Feasibility Analysis: Assess whether customer requirements can be met with current tooling or if new engineering features need to be prioritized. • Project Execution: Once the tool is operational, you are responsible for the project management of the actual data delivery. You will own the timeline, budget, and final quality output. • Workforce Management: Define the profiles for and manage the recruitment of specialized annotators and reviewers. • Dataset Delivery: Ensure final datasets are exported in the exact formats required by the customer.

• Design and implement advanced behavior planning and control for autonomous sidewalk robots in complex urban environments. • Architect mission/route ingestion at the robot level and integrate it with mapping, perception, prediction, planning, and control. • Build and own the behavior layer (state machine/behavior tree) for cruise, overtake, peek/yield, and stop/move-to-side behaviors. • Define lane selection and speed governance (right/center/road-side) with safety envelopes, comfort limits, and social etiquette. • Instrument the stack with structured telemetry (option costs, clearances, interventions) and define KPIs and dashboards for release gating. • Drive improvements to the robot’s ability to handle failure scenarios, correct inefficiencies, and compose low-level robotic skills into high-level, goal-directed behaviors. • Lead testing and validation efforts in both simulation and real-world deployments, ensuring planning systems are reliable, safe, and performant. • Maintain clear and comprehensive documentation of algorithms, codebases, interfaces, and system designs to support cross-team collaboration and long-term maintainability.
