Launch Location Manager

Autonomous transport is a promising and technologically complex direction of Yandex, one of Russia's most innovative companies. Our delivery robots are already delivering groceries and ready-made meals to users.

We strive to expand the service, make it as accessible as possible for customers, and increase its economic efficiency — to achieve this, we optimize operational processes, improve operational safety, automate fleet management, and launch new locations. Our goal is to ensure the sustainable growth of autonomous delivery by reducing costs and increasing reliability.

What tasks await you

Project and analytical activities for launching locations for delivery robots One of the important tasks is the development and implementation of projects for searching, evaluating, and organizing work for new robot delivery territories. You will analyze data of different types and volumes (including geodata), draw conclusions, and present results to the team. You will coordinate the work of several teams, formulate technical requirements, maintain reporting, control deadlines, and implement improvements to processes.

Operational activities You will ensure the fulfillment of tasks set for the team within established deadlines and SLAs, support the exploration of new territories for robot launches and their commissioning — from site selection to the first delivery. Additionally, you will need to monitor compliance with current regulations and develop new, more efficient procedures.

Administrative work You will plan the team's work, create and control schedules to ensure project continuity. You will organize and maintain optimal working conditions for employees, as well as oversee the activities of remote teams.
