About the role

Technical Product Manager responsible for the ML platform, simulators, perception and robotics initiatives, and the seam between applied AI/ML and software engineering at Mariana Minerals.

Responsibilities

  • Talk to internal teams constantly — operators, process engineers, and MLEs are your users, and their problems set the roadmap.
  • Own the roadmap for the ML platform: which capabilities it needs next, for which use cases, and why.
  • Write the product specs, KPIs, and success metrics that turn ambiguous ML and autonomy asks into scoped, shippable work.
  • Own prioritization and stakeholder alignment so MLEs stay focused on deep technical work.
  • Own the path to process autonomy — models that inform, and increasingly set, process and chemical operating decisions — and the simulators that underpin it.
  • Own the roadmap for vision, sensor, and robotics initiatives: which plant problems get a model or a robot first, and what "good enough to deploy" means for each.
  • Own the seam between the applied AI/ML org and the software engineering org, and the boundary with MarianaOS, so nothing falls in the gap.
  • Define what it takes for a model, simulator, or robot to be trusted in production, and be explicit about which initiatives won't be pursued.

Qualifications

  • 4–8+ years in technical product management, ML platform or robotics product roles, or equivalent experience leading cross-disciplinary technical programs
  • Comfortable being the only PM in a highly technical room
  • Enough depth in ML systems — training, evaluation, deployment, perception, simulation
  • Track record of bringing structure to ambiguous, cross-functional initiatives: setting direction, aligning stakeholders, and owning outcomes end-to-end
  • Strong prioritization and tradeoff skills
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication across audiences
