PGH | MFG - Open Doors @ Aurora
PGH | MFG — Open Doors @ Aurora Innovation
Open Doors is PGH | MFG’s facility tour series designed to bring manufacturers, operators, and ecosystem partners directly into the environments where advanced production and technology come to life.
For this event, the community will step inside Aurora’s Pittsburgh operations for a guided look at how autonomy is built, tested, and scaled. From hardware integration and system validation to the operational realities of deploying autonomous technology, attendees will gain insight into the intersection of manufacturing, robotics, and real-world application.
Aurora is developing self-driving technology designed to safely and reliably move people and goods — bringing together advanced hardware, software, sensing, and systems engineering. This tour will explore how those elements connect in practice and what it takes to support autonomy at scale.
The program will include:
🔹 Facility Walkthrough
A behind-the-scenes look at Aurora’s technical environment and operational workflows.
🔹 Discussion & Q&A
Conversation around system integration, supplier collaboration, and scaling complex technology.
🔹 Intentional Networking
Connect with manufacturers, sourcing leaders, robotics companies, and ecosystem partners in a focused, high-value setting.
Who we will hear from:
Panel: Jeremy Puhlman, Senior Manager, R&D Prototyping
Panel: Harold Hall, Director, Manufacturing
Moderator: Nate Manuel, Technical Program Manager, Vehicle Integration
