Who we are

Pronto AI is a global leader in commercializing autonomous vehicle (AV) technology, deploying Autonomous Haulage Systems (AHS) that automate operations in mines, quarries, and construction sites worldwide. While much of the industry remains in R&D, we deliver real, production-ready autonomy that is already operating in the field.

We are on a mission to make mining operations safer, smarter, and more efficient through cutting-edge technology, and we are building toward becoming the world’s first profitable AV technology company.

What you’ll do

• Onboard new engineers and get them ready to support production.
• Know your team's technical work in depth and hold the team accountable for quality and response times.
• Step in hands-on to cover team members when needed.
• Grow engineers on your team toward Level 2.
• Partner with Robotics, Hardware, and Operations teams to resolve issues.
• Improve support processes and tooling so the team can support a growing fleet.

What we’re looking for

• Engineering background (robotics, software, or embedded systems), now focused on management.
• Experience leading engineering teams and a fluency in English to enable cross functional team collaboration.
• Strong people management skills.
• Advanced Linux and Bash, plus hands-on debugging of embedded systems over SSH and the command line.
• ROS, and Python or C/C++.
• Plus: experience in support or managing support teams.
• Plus: experience with 24/7 or shift-based operations.

Why join us 

• Work on real, production-deployed autonomy.
• Build technology that directly improves safety, efficiency, and productivity.
• Tackle complex challenges in demanding, real-world environments.
• Be part of a fast-moving team with high ownership and impact.

• Collaborate closely with experienced engineers and industry operators.

What else you need to know 

This role is based in our Belo Horizonte office location. As a company driven by innovation and continuous change, close collaboration is essential. We’re constantly reimagining our industry, creating new products, and refining our processes, and we do our best work together.
