Senior Program Manager, Mapping Operations

• Improving the map production system so it is faster, cleaner, and more scalable • Turning quality or throughput questions into clear plans with owners and timelines • Auditing labeling patterns, finding root causes, and redesigning workflows • Driving real commitments from tool owners, partner teams, and vendors If you are energized by complex systems, cross-functional influence, and work that connects directly to safe autonomous driving, we would love to meet you. This is an opportunity to own work that genuinely matters to Nuro’s ability to scale. You will lead the strategic health of mapping operations end to end: how work flows, how quality is defined, how teams collaborate, and how our tools and processes evolve. Nuro is growing quickly, and mapping operations need to grow with it. You will look across the full system, decide what needs to be built, improved, simplified, or retired, and drive the changes that move us forward. That will require clear judgment, strong stakeholder management, comfort with ambiguity, and the ability to stay steady when priorities shift. We are looking for someone who is AI-native: someone who reaches for AI as a practical tool for investigation, analysis, drafting, automation, and systems improvement, and helps the broader team understand what strong AI-enabled operations can look like. Depending on team needs and your experience, this role may include managing operations PMs or labeling specialists. Strong individual contributors are equally welcome. What matters most is systems thinking, backbone, clear communication, and genuine care for getting the work right.

You do not need to have done this exact job before. We are looking for someone who cares about program management as a craft, systems thinking as a default, AI as a multiplier, and mission-driven work as a motivator. If you are energized by entering a fast-moving environment and leaving it materially stronger than you found it, this role was written for you. • 6+ years in program management, project management, operations, technical operations, or a related role in a software or technology environment • Experience working close to technical or operational systems, with a track record of designing, redesigning, or scaling how work gets done • AI-native instincts and practical experience applying AI to operational, analytical, or automation problems • Confidence under pressure, sound judgment in ambiguity, and the ability to help others stay focused through change • Strong stakeholder management, including the ability to push senior partners while maintaining trust • Executive-level communication and strong data fluency, including metrics, reporting, trend analysis, and structural decision-making
