About the Role:
As Director of Field Operations you will:
Lead the Field Team responsible for data collection and develop a strategy for cost-effectively growing our operations. In the near term you will oversee an in-house team of foresters and field staff, as well as external contractors. You will be responsible for timely data collection, safety in the field and overall cost management.
Ensure robust operational planning. This includes overseeing the inventory of robots to ensure appropriate availability of robots for project work. As we scale, you will need to lead implementation of improved systems for operational planning and inventory management.
Establish critical feedback loops between our field operations and other teams. Whether it is feedback on performance of our hardware or our AI models effectively collecting and addressing feedback from the field is critical to Treeswift’s overall success.
Be prepared to tackle new challenges as they arise ! Whether it be future international deployment or customers operating our robots we are looking for someone flexible to deploy their strength in operations creatively to new challenges.
This role requires deep people management experience, ideally with teams based remotely and often in the field, meticulous organizational skills, and ability to efficiently collaborate and make decisions quickly with your counterparts in leadership. Experience managing a fleet of hardware products (or other inventory) is a big plus. You will be expected to travel to customer field sites as needed.
