Description
As a Technical Program Manager, you will wear multiple hats, including being a technical consultant and end-to-end system expert, rolling out new robotic technologies and products, and advocating for customer needs back into AR. You will use data to deep dive system functionality, evaluate operational best practices, tools, and promote new AR technology to ensure optimal robotic system health and performance, driving mitigations and corrections with technical teams, and influencing long-term root cause corrective actions.
You will work cross functionally to aid support of new product roll outs and experimentations in their region. You are also expected to work independently and with ambiguity in a complex, fast-paced, and high-throughput environment where multi-tasking is required. As the conduit from the FC back to AR you will be expected to work closely with AR Product Management and Field Support teams to influence product development and adoption by reporting on and prioritizing enhancements and issues from the field.
Key job responsibilities

· Dive deep into data and operational or technological issues, provide clear resolution and path forward. Solve problems that span support, software, hardware, and system performance teams
· Contribute to and leverage best practices and standards, staying current on both the technology and product to anticipate and prevent unnecessary escalations
· Own investigation and resolution of customer questions and issues at various levels of complexity and customer impact, escalating where necessary
· Identify and drive improvement opportunities regionally and to the global network through technical and/or operational changes.
· Assist with new product/feature introduction in alignment with the product development organization
· Develop training documentation and mentor other team members
· Drive the development of automation tools to reduce failures and manual task execution, therefore improving overall application performance and availability
