Auto-ApplyProduct Manager, Omni Analysis & Q&A
Quality assurance manager job in San Francisco, CA
Airtable is the no-code app platform that empowers people closest to the work to accelerate their most critical business processes. More than 500,000 organizations, including 80% of the Fortune 100, rely on Airtable to transform how work gets done.
Airtable stores some of our customers' most valuable operational data. Because we're the system customers use to power some of their most important collaborative operational workflows, much of this data only exists in Airtable. This data is often combined with data from other organizational systems of record in structured ways. All together, that means we have an incredibly differentiated body of context about our customers that can power insights about their business that they couldn't get anywhere else. Today, getting value from all of this data requires builder skills.
We want to make insights about this data accessible to anyone through natural language.
This area of our AI product investment is relatively early, and we believe it represents a significant opportunity across three dimensions:
Enterprise leverage: Our most mature bases are in enterprise accounts. These contain years of historical campaigns, product feedback, roadmaps, call transcripts. These customers are already bought in on Airtable as their operational data layer. AI-powered analysis lets them extract dramatically more value without additional building.
Non-builder expansion: Today, you need to be a builder to get value from Airtable. Analysis and Q&A is the most accessible entry point for the much larger population of collaborators, consumers, and executives who will never create a view or write a formula but who have questions about their data.
Becoming the business context repository: There's an untapped opportunity for individuals to proactively bring together data from different tools explicitly to create personal or team context repositories that AI can reason over.
What you'll do
Define the opportunity space and shape what AI-powered analysis and synthesis looks like for Airtable.
Own the AI-powered search, Q&A, and analysis experience by building conversational interfaces that let users query, synthesize, and generate insights from their operational data without needing to be Airtable experts
Drive AI adoption among non-builders by expanding who benefits from Airtable by creating AI experiences that surface value for users who never touch the builder
Build the intelligence layer that keeps Airtable in the loop as AI agents and external systems interact with Airtable data, ensure our AI capabilities deliver superior context-aware responses
Shape how quantitative analysis works in an AI-native context leveraging Airtable's unique position as a structured, flexible, composable data store
Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, design, and data teams to ship high-quality AI experiences that users trust and rely on daily
Who you are
Experience building AI chat/assistant products: you've shipped conversational AI, copilot, or Q&A experiences and understand the nuances of prompt engineering, context management, retrieval, and user trust in AI-generated outputs
8+ years of product management experience: you have a track record of shipping products that users love, ideally including AI/ML-powered features at scale
Genuine AI fluency: you understand how LLMs work at a technical level (not just as a user), can evaluate tradeoffs between model capabilities, and have opinions on RAG architectures, fine-tuning, evals, and prompt design
Strong product taste for AI interactions: you have a refined sense for what makes AI responses feel helpful vs. frustrating, when to show confidence vs. uncertainty, and how to build trust through transparency
Comfort with ambiguity: you're energized by defining problems, not just solving well-scoped ones. You can make progress when a roadmap doesn't exist yet.
Analytical rigor: you fluent enough with AI and data to define success metrics for AI features and build measurement frameworks for inherently fuzzy outcomes
Technical depth: you can partner effectively with engineers to drive the priority and importance of architecture decisions and infrastructure investments
User empathy: you understand how non-technical users think about their data and can translate complex capabilities into intuitive experiences
Airtable is an equal opportunity employer. We embrace diversity and strive to create a workplace where everyone has an equal opportunity to thrive. We welcome people of different backgrounds, experiences, abilities, and perspectives.

Head of Manufacturing Quality
Quality assurance manager job in South San Francisco, CA
Do you want to change the world? Zipline is on a mission to transform the way goods move. Our aim is to solve the world's most urgent and complex access challenges by building, manufacturing, and operating the first instant delivery and logistics system that serves all humans equally, wherever they are. From powering Rwanda's national blood delivery network and Ghana's COVID-19 vaccine distribution, to providing on-demand home delivery for Walmart, to enabling healthcare providers to bring care directly to U.S. homes, we are transforming the way things move for businesses, governments, and consumers.
The technology is complex, but the idea is simple: a teleportation service that delivers what you need, when you need it. Through robotics and autonomy, we are decarbonizing delivery, decreasing road congestion, reducing fossil fuel consumption and air pollution, while building a more resilient global supply chain.
About You and the Role
Are you a hands-on, systems-level thinker who thrives at the intersection of technical rigor, operational excellence, and team leadership? Do you love building and scaling quality systems that ensure products meet the highest standards of reliability, safety, and performance-without slowing innovation?
As Head of Quality, you will lead Zipline's Quality organization-including our Quality Engineers and Quality Technicians-overseeing the end-to-end quality lifecycle across all feeder lines and top-level assemblies: aircraft, droid, and dock. You will own the quality strategy, execution, and continuous improvement across Incoming Quality Control (IQC), End-of-Line (EOL), and Outgoing Quality Control (OQC) processes to ensure every Zipline product meets the performance and reliability expectations required for global operations.
This role is both strategic and deeply operational. You'll develop scalable quality processes, coach and empower a high-performing team, and use data to drive continuous improvement in first pass yield (FPY), cost of poor quality (COPQ), and field reliability. As a key manufacturing leader, you'll collaborate closely with Production, Manufacturing Engineering, Supply Chain, and Product Design to ensure quality is built into every stage-from supplier through shipment.
You'll need to be comfortable operating in an ambiguous, rapidly evolving environment, balancing day-to-day problem solving with building long-term systems that will scale as Zipline grows globally.
What You'll Do
As Head of Quality, you'll define and drive Zipline's quality vision and roadmap across production and field operations. You'll empower your team to execute with precision, while building the systems, tools, and culture that enable sustained quality excellence.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
Lead and develop Zipline's Quality Engineering and Quality Technician teams, ensuring effective execution across IQC, EOL, and OQC functions.
Define, implement, and continuously improve quality processes across top-level assemblies (aircraft, droid, dock)
Establish and track key quality metrics including first pass yield, defect rates, rework hours, and field quality escapes (modifying these as scale changes)
Drive cross-functional investigations for major production or field quality issues-owning containment, root cause analysis, corrective/preventive actions (CAPA), and communication to leadership.
Drive PFMEAs for all products to be manufactured on the production lines to establish control plans and quality procedures
Partner with Manufacturing Engineering, Supply Chain, and Product Design to implement design-for-quality (DFQ) and process control strategies that reduce variability and improve manufacturability.
Oversee and optimize incoming inspection programs to ensure parts and subassemblies meet quality standards before entering production.
Champion reliability improvement and validation testing at end-of-line to prevent downstream failures and quality escapes to the field.
Own the overall Quality Management System (QMS) maturity roadmap-balancing rigor with practicality as the company scales.
Lead continuous improvement initiatives focused on driving yield improvement, waste reduction, and process standardization.
Build and foster a culture of accountability, root cause problem-solving, and pride in quality across the production floor.
Serve as the senior quality voice in leadership reviews-providing transparency into risks, performance trends, and improvement priorities.
Must Have Experience / Skill Sets
10+ years of experience in manufacturing quality, reliability, or production engineering, including 3+ years in a leadership role managing quality teams.
Experience with scaling a quality system from low prototype production to low volume production (100/wk) to high volume production (1000s/wk) with complex electro-mechanical hardware (automotive, small aircraft, robotics, etc)
Strong understanding of quality engineering tools and methodologies: PFMEA, control plans, and CAPA.
Demonstrated success in scaling quality systems across complex electro-mechanical products.
Hands-on experience in production environments managing inspection, testing, and validation activities.
Proven ability to reduce quality escapes and improve first pass yield in high-mix, low- to mid-volume operations.
Strong data analysis skills; comfortable using quality metrics to drive improvement and accountability.
Experience collaborating closely with Manufacturing Engineering, Supply Chain, and Design Engineering teams to influence product and process quality.
Excellent leadership and communication skills-capable of motivating teams and driving cross-functional alignment.
Ability to balance hands-on problem solving with long-term strategic planning.
Comfort operating in a fast-paced, ambiguous, and rapidly scaling environment.
Nice to Have
Experience in robotics or automotive manufacturing.
Background in supplier quality and global production scaling.
Familiarity with MES, ERP, and PLM systems for quality data traceability.
Experience managing automated or semi-automated inspection systems.
What Else You Need to Know
Zipline is an equal opportunity employer and prohibits discrimination and harassment of any kind. We value diversity and welcome applications from those who are traditionally underrepresented in tech. If you like the sound of this position but are not sure if you are the perfect fit, please apply!
