What To Expect
We are looking for a Program Manager to take the Optimus roadmap and turn it into work external-facing teams can execute — content, merchant, apparel, and rewards. You sit with the program, understand what is coming, and make sure the people who talk to customers, partners, and the public are working from the same plan.
What You'll Do
Own translation of the Optimus roadmap into briefs, calendars, and launches for content, merchant apparel, and rewardsKeep a single source of truth so external-facing employees know what is live, what is next, and what is blockedPartner with engineering, data collection, and go-to-market stakeholders; surface dependencies early and keep launches on Tesla speedRun the cross-functional drumbeat — standups, milestones, owners, and close the gap between roadmap intent and field executionFind broken handoffs (assets, timing, messaging) and put simple, repeatable workflows in placeRepresent the program with external-facing teams without losing the technical reality of what Optimus can and cannot do yet
What You'll Bring
Experience as a program or project manager in content, merchandising, apparel, consumer products, or another external-facing launch environmentTrack record of turning a product or technical roadmap into work other teams can actually shipStrong organization and stakeholder management — you can hold a calendar, a brief, and a roomComfort in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment; you prioritize without perfect informationClear writing and communication for operators, not slide decksPassion for Tesla’s mission and humanoid robotics
