Run the cadence: lead planning, daily stand-ups, and retrospectives, and keep sprint goals tied to the broader program milestones,  Get ahead of dependencies: surface dependencies on partner teams early enough that they're a planning conversation, Build the HIL capability: own the roadmap and timeline for our HIL test capability, partnering closely with our HIL architect and the cross-functional team to drive automated test development and test coverage across subsystems and full systems. Plan with the people who'll live the plan: partner with the Senior Manager of Systems Integration and with Mechanical, Electrical, Firmware, and Software leads to turn program goals into sequenced integration plans, with clear owners, dependencies, and dates,  Own the integration pipeline: keep the integration Jira project and dashboards current: asset status, build milestones, bugs, and the weekly rhythm that keeps the program honest about where things stand.

Numbers & Facts

LocationHybrid- Fremont, CA

Description

Agility’s commercially deployed humanoids operate alongside teams in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and distribution centers—tackling physically demanding and repetitive tasks while enabling workers to focus on higher-value work. With industry-leading safety standards and years of proven deployment data, we're pioneering a new era of automation that enhances human potential.

Role Overview

Agility Robotics is seeking a Senior Technical Program Manager, Systems Integration to join our SEIT Technical Program team. This role owns planning and execution for systems integration while supporting the stand up of a new Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) test capability, partnering closely with Mechanical, Electrical, Firmware, and Software engineering to keep the robot's path from subsystem to full system on track.

You're equally comfortable running a planning session with program leadership and sitting in a design review working through an interface spec with an electrical engineer. People need to be able to hand you a half-formed integration risk and trust you'll turn it into a plan, and they need to be able to send you into a room to represent their work without anything getting lost in translation. This is a hybrid role, requiring you to be at our San Francisco Bay Area (Fremont) facility at least 3-days a week and occasional travel to the RobotFab facility in Salem, Oregon.

Key Responsibilities

  • Plan with the people who'll live the plan: partner with the Senior Manager of Systems Integration and with Mechanical, Electrical, Firmware, and Software leads to turn program goals into sequenced integration plans, with clear owners, dependencies, and dates, 
  • Own the integration pipeline: keep the integration Jira project and dashboards current: asset status, build milestones, bugs, and the weekly rhythm that keeps the program honest about where things stand.
  • Run the cadence: lead planning, daily stand-ups, and retrospectives, and keep sprint goals tied to the broader program milestones, 
  • Get ahead of dependencies: surface dependencies on partner teams early enough that they're a planning conversation,
  • Build the HIL capability: own the roadmap and timeline for our HIL test capability, partnering closely with our HIL architect and the cross-functional team to drive automated test development and test coverage across subsystems and full systems.
  • Make test data decision-ready: build program-level visibility into test coverage, automation status, and failure trends, and use that data to drive real calls about what ships.
  • Clear the path: coordinate the benches, rigs, and simulation environments HIL testing needs, and unblock whatever's standing between the team and the next test run.
  • Know the system, not just the schedule: build a real working understanding of the robot's architecture and interfaces, enough to catch an integration gap before it becomes a schedule risk.
  • Be the trusted translator: facilitate technical discussions across hardware, firmware, and software teams to resolve interface questions and surface risks early, and represent that engineering work clearly and accurately in cross-functional and leadership reviews.
  • Track it to the end: drive cross-functional tracking of issues, risks, and dependencies through to resolution, and escalate the ones that matter with a clear recommendation,
  • Make program health legible: maintain dashboards, status reports, and documentation that let anyone, from an individual engineer to program leadership, understand where integration actually stands.

Technical Skills & Requirements

Core Requirements

  • 8+ years of experience in technical program management, systems integration, or hardware/robotics engineering, including 3+ years leading cross-functional technical programs.
  • Experience building and managing integration plans: schedules, milestones, dependencies, and risk mitigation, for complex electromechanical systems.
  • Strong technical understanding of systems engineering, system bring-up, integration testing, and the interfaces between hardware, firmware, and software.
  • A track record of running technical discussions with engineers directly and representing their work accurately to cross-functional partners and leadership.
  • Proficiency with Jira and Confluence, and comfort building dashboards or reports that make program health legible at a glance.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with humanoid robotics, autonomous systems, aerospace, automotive manufacturing, or other complex electromechanical platforms.
  • Familiarity with hardware, firmware, and software release processes and configuration management.
  • Direct experience designing, standing up, or scaling Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) test systems, automated test frameworks, or simulation-based validation environments.
  • Background in reliability tracking, issue management, and root cause analysis.
  • PMP/PgMP certification, or equivalent practical rigor.

Education

  • Bachelor's degree in Robotics, Mechatronics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field (Master's preferred).
