About The Position

Agility Robotics is scaling its operations and is seeking a Technical Program Manager, Operations to bridge the programmatic gap across the Operations department (Supply Chain, Manufacturing engineering, Production, Quality) to support the deployment of Digits next generation robot.

CAPM or Agile certification.
Experience building dashboards or light automation (Jira filters/JQL, Smartsheet formulas, Excel Power Query).

Responsibilities

Run the Operations execution work: facilitate weekly deliverable check-ins with Supply Chain, Tech Ops, and Manufacturing; track commitments, risks, and cross-team actions to closure.
