How you’ll demonstrate Ownership

As a Co-Innovation Program Manager, you'll drive the programs that turn Cognite's emerging capabilities into production-ready product. You'll work at the seam between product development and customer reality—using real-world deployments to harden new features, identify gaps, and systematically improve the platform, systems, and processes.

You use customer deployments as the proving ground to ensure our product capabilities are reliable, scalable, and ready for repeatable delivery.

You'll need the instincts of a deployment strategist—analytical, curious, comfortable with ambiguity—combined with the rigor of a technical program manager. You orchestrate across engineers, product managers, designers, and customer teams to keep complex programs on track and ensure learnings flow back into the product roadmap.

The Impact you bring to Cognite
  • Drive Co-Innovation: Own end-to-end delivery of customer-partnered programs, managing scope, timelines, resources, and risks.
  • Harden the Product: Use production deployments as a proving ground to surface edge cases, integration challenges, and system gaps.
  • Feed Field Insights to Product: Systematically translate field learnings into actionable product requirements in partnership with Product and Engineering leads.
  • Orchestrate Delivery: Coordinate cross-functional teams (Engineers, Data Scientists, Designers, Product Managers) to align dependencies and clear roadblocks.
  • Ensure Production Readiness: Define readiness standards to guarantee capabilities scale effectively before broad commercial release.
  • Facilitate Customer Collaboration: Lead technical workshops and working sessions with enterprise customers to validate high-leverage solutions.
 
Required Qualifications

  • Education and experience: Degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field. 5+ years of experience in technical program management, solutions engineering, product management, or similar roles that combine technical depth with delivery accountability.

  • Program leadership: Proven track record of managing complex, cross-functional initiatives from concept through delivery—coordinating across engineering, product, and customer-facing teams to deliver results

  • Technical & Systems Acumen: Strong ability to navigate complex software architectures, data systems, and integration patterns.

  • Industrial Expertise: Experience in or with industrial sectors (energy, manufacturing, process industries) and understanding operational workflows..

  • Execution & Communication: Exceptional precision in written/verbal communication, strong organizational rigor, and a hands-on, action-oriented mindset

Preferred Experience

  • Prior exposure to AI/ML systems, LLM applications, or agentic workflows.
  • Hands-on experience with industrial data types (time series, sensor data, knowledge graphs) or platforms like Cognite Data Fusion (CDF).
  • Experience with operational technology (OT), control systems, or industrial software.
  • Background in fast-paced product environments with rapid iteration cycles.
