Technical Program Manager | Operations Leader & AI Systems Builder

About

Proof first. Then systems. Then the timeline that connects both. I am an operations leader and systems builder with 15+ years spanning AT&T retail leadership, Zoox autonomous vehicle operations, managed IT, and founder-led AI systems. Since 2018 I have run RocketServe.io LLC / RocketServe Legal, a technology-enabled legal support operation, where I build the workflows, automation, and evidence trails that make document-heavy service delivery accurate, traceable, and on time. Alongside RocketServe I design and ship my own systems: Athena, a persistent AI environment with a memory graph and execution orchestration; OpenClaw, a configuration and integration layer for local AI operations; Notary Score Kit, an adaptive learning and scoring workflow; DifficultResearch, a collaborative investigation platform; and offkilter.tv, a creator ecosystem. Hands-on with Linux/Unix, macOS, Windows, TCP/IP, VPN, SSH, FTP, Wireshark, Cisco IOS CLI, Office 365, Active Directory, GCP administration, Jira, and AI workflow platforms. How I work: pressure needs process, standards beat speeches, founders own handoffs, customers remember follow-through, context is infrastructure, and quality must be measurable. Approachable in tone, strict in delivery, consistent in follow-through. Portfolio, projects, and verified credentials: itsjustrobby.com

What I'm looking for

A remote-first senior role where operations discipline and systems building are the same job: technical program management, operations leadership, or AI/workflow operations. I own cadence and handoffs on programs where accuracy and traceability matter — building the runbooks, checklists, dependency maps, and automation that keep quality measurable, then coaching a team to hold the standard. Fully remote, US Pacific, full-time or contract. Portfolio: itsjustrobby.com

Applied AI-assisted planning and automation to reduce ambiguity in service delivery, customer communication, and evidence organization.
