Why This Role Matters

We're building Vega™, a breakthrough 3D weaving system that turns yarn directly into garments in minutes. As our Program Management Lead, you'll be the connective tissue that brings our technology from prototype to global deployment, directly supporting our mission to reduce global carbon emissions by 1%.

A Typical Day Might Include

  • Working with executives to translate vision into actionable roadmaps
  • Leading cross-functional meetings to resolve complex tradeoffs
  • Creating frameworks that help teams make better decisions faster
  • Communicating priorities and progress to stakeholders at all levels

  • Can you balance technical detail with strategic perspective?
  • Are you energized by facilitating difficult conversations and decisions?
  • Do you excel at translating between different functional languages?

Why unspun?

We're not just another tech company - we're reinventing how things are made. Here's what makes us special:

  • Mission-Driven: Your work directly reduces global carbon emissions
  • Innovation at Scale: Coordinate breakthrough technology deployment
  • Amazing Team: Work with passionate experts across disciplines
  • Growth Opportunity: Shape our approach to program management
  • Comprehensive Benefits: Details below, but we take care of our team

Our Culture

We're relentless in pursuing our mission, intentional in our decisions, and fundamentally human in how we work together. We celebrate small wins, speak up to benefit many, and aren't afraid to make mistakes along the way.

Benefits

The salary range for this role is $151,000 - $167,000 USD annually, plus 0.02% - 0.03% equity.

Benefits Include

  • Self-regulated vacation policy
  • Comprehensive (gold & platinum) health/dental/vision insurance
  • Company sponsored 401k and FSA or HSA
  • Monthly wellness or education grant up to $150
  • Pre-tax commuter benefits

Our Philosophy

We won't roll our eyes if your socks don't match. We get it. But then, if you spend those extra few minutes in the morning matching your socks and shirt, we get that too. Our workspaces are sometimes spotless and sometimes chaotic, and we celebrate messy exploration. We work through complex problems but generate simple and elegant solutions. We strive to look at things differently, and never do anything solely because "that's the way it's always been done."

We're a team of designers and engineers, industry-veterans and serial entrepreneurs, artists and developers. We're aspiring chess masters and climbers, bakers and photographers. Originally spun out of Stanford and the University of Colorado, we now call the SF Bay Area home, with strong ties to Hong Kong. We are looking for teammates who share our desire to work on ambitious problems and leave the world better than we found it.

unspun is an equal opportunity employer, and we are committed to being a diverse team that reflects a broad range of background, thought, and experience. We do not discriminate based on race, color, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, national origin, status as an individual with a disability, status as protected veteran, or any other legally protected characteristics. Women, minorities, and people from underrepresented backgrounds are strongly encouraged to apply.
