Technical Program Manager - Data

At Oxa, we're building the future of Industrial Mobile Autonomy (IMA) and are in the market for new talent. Oxa’s customers are the operators of some of the world's largest industrial facilities. Our technology transforms existing industrial vehicles into intelligent autonomous fleets, unlocking new levels of productivity, safety, and performance.   ‘The phone in your hand, the coffee on your desk, the shirt on your back - they all moved through a web of ports (air and sea), distribution yards and manufacturing hubs. This is the invisible circulatory system of global trade, and it relies entirely on a relentless, repetitive shuffle of goods. Towing. This towing task happens in complex, commerce-critical industrial environments. Here, having self driving technology “do the driving” delivers immediate, measurable impact. IMA will revolutionise the movement of goods across the world's ports, airports, and yards. You can be part of that as an Oxbot’ ‘Paul Newman - Founder and CEO’   Our Products: Our products are built on four core technology pillars which come together to build a complete system: Oxa Ware – Our modular autonomy hardware systems for consistent and repeatable integration of autonomy with existing vehicles. Oxa Driver – Our Physical AI, embodied in Oxa Ware, self-driving software that enables vehicles to perceive, reason, and drive autonomously in complex real-world environments. Oxa Foundry – Our development toolchain that leverages generative AI to continuously train and assure Oxa Driver, synthesising situations and sensor data. Oxa Hub – Our suite of cloud services for monitoring, managing and orchestrating fleets driven by Oxa Driver, including an API for integration with existing logistics systems.   Behind these technologies is our exceptional team, the Oxbots. We are home to some of the world's leading experts in autonomous systems, robotics, machine learning, artificial intelligence, cloud infrastructure, and distributed software engineering. Together, we're solving some of the hardest technical challenges in autonomy, turning the research and development we do into production and deploying it into environments. Making robots do useful work.   Your Team: You will join the Data layer of Oxa Driver: the teams that train, teach and test the machine-learning systems our vehicles rely on. They turn data from our vehicles and simulation into the datasets, scenarios and tools the rest of the stack builds on, and their workload grows with each new operating domain and site we take on. Data is a group of teams responsible for: collecting and curating real-world data, including dataset quality and labelling generating synthetic sensor data to fill gaps in real-world coverage simulation and digital twins of the sites our vehicles operate in the data infrastructure that stores, organises and serves this data applying machine learning to hard problems across the stack The teams work closely with Autonomy Applications, who train and deploy models on this data, Integration & Test, our data ingest and platform teams, our safety team, and the Solutions team who take our products to customers. Your Role: Our Technical Program Manager is the delivery enabler for the Data teams. They coordinate delivery so the teams can collect, curate, generate and ship data with less friction, and their leads can focus on engineering. They will work with engineering, product and solutions leaders across the stack who own customer outcomes. The focus of the Program Manager is to make sure the datasets, simulations and tools other teams depend on arrive when planned, with risks and dependencies visible early. This role will be based in our Oxford office, with occasional visits to our vehicle sites to support understanding of how data is collected and used.     Your Responsibilities: Take the layer's commitments in our product engineering plan and, with the leads, turn them into sequenced work wit
