Mill is a waste prevention technology company reimagining what it means to eliminate waste, starting with food. We build smart systems and infrastructure for homes, businesses, and municipalities that transform food scraps from landfill-bound waste into valuable resources, including chicken feed. Tens of thousands of Mill’s residential food recyclers are already helping households divert millions of pounds of food scraps every year, paving the way for our upcoming launch of Mill Commercial—the industry’s first end-to-end solution for managing, understanding, and preventing food waste in commercial environments (e.g. grocery, restaurants, food services). At Mill, we are passionate about building easy-to-use, beautifully designed technologies that keep food in the food system and out of landfills.
About the Role
~1 min read- Track resourcing across SW teams and applications on the Mill Commercial platform, and flag gaps or conflicts before they become blockers
- Serve as Scrum Master and Jira lead for the SW Applications & Data team
- Own key third-party data integrations, customers, partners, and vendors, including sample data requests, schema, and API connections
- Build and maintain the integrated SW deployment schedule across Fleet Management, UI Design, and Data Integrations
- Run regular executive updates on resourcing, scheduling, and budget
- Turn shifting requirements into a shared set of priorities that eng, product, and partners can plan against
- Surface risks, blockers, and scope creep the moment you see them, with enough context for execs to make a fast call
- Map dependencies across teams (SW, firmware, data, CV) to catch where one team's slip becomes another's blocker
- 8+ years of SW program management, with strong preference for SW products with a physical hardware component
- Gen 1 software product experience: you've organized the development of complex, first-generation software products
- Software and firmware knowledge: you've worked with both on-device software and cloud-based applications for monitoring and controlling devices
- Data integration expertise: from native APIs to flat-file ingestion; experience with AI-powered workflows is a plus
- Strong cross-functional executor: you keep eng, product, ops, and sales coordinated, and you run meetings that produce clear decisions and owners
- Technical depth: comfortable in a room full of engineers, you can engage substantively on tradeoffs and know when to escalate
- Shipped multiple software products: you've taken more than one through late-stage development, pilot, and into commercial deployment
- Clear, direct communicator: you write status updates and requirements that get read, not skimmed, and you can distill a messy technical problem into a one-line ask for an exec or a one-page brief for a partner
- Fluent with AI tools: you use AI-powered tools day to day for things like summarizing meetings, drafting requirements or specs, or synthesizing data, and you can help the team find similar leverage in their own workflows
- Advanced with program management tools like Jira, Notion, etc., with experience running Scrum rituals up to and including Scrum of Scrums
- Experience coordinating dependencies across many engineering disciplines, from full stack to computer vision to data integration
