About the role
Hardware-focused Technical Program Manager leading cross-functional, system-level programs for AI and hyperscale server platforms across the full product lifecycle, from definition to production ramp and lifecycle sustainment.
Responsibilities
- Own system‑level technical program strategy and execution across feature delivery, product quality, and continuity of supply, balancing technical trade‑offs, customer requirements, and business priorities across the full product lifecycle.
- Drive cross‑functional alignment between Engineering, Product Management, Sales, Operations, and Supply Chain, translating platform capabilities, system constraints, and roadmap strategy into executable plans that support customer commitments and business outcomes.
- Lead execution of highly complex, multi‑disciplinary system solutions, spanning PCBAs, mechanical architecture, power and thermals, operating systems, BMC, BIOS, solution software, diagnostics, validation, and test while coordinating internal teams and external vendors to meet cost, quality, and schedule objectives.
- Act as a system‑level integrator, ensuring alignment across hardware, firmware, and software architectures, proactively managing inter‑team dependencies and surfacing systemic risks early.
- Ensure designs meet manufacturability, reliability, serviceability, and scalability requirements, partnering with manufacturing, quality, and supplier teams to enable production readiness and long‑term lifecycle sustainability.
- Establish and lead core execution mechanisms, including weekly program reviews and milestone checkpoints with global, cross‑functional stakeholders, driving accountability, resolving escalations, and ensuring on‑time milestone delivery.
- Identify, assess, and communicate program risks at the system level, defining mitigation plans and driving cross‑functional hardware and software solutions to minimize impact to schedule, cost, quality, and supply continuity.
- Serve as a trusted advisor to senior leadership, providing clear, data‑driven program status, decision trade‑offs, and escalation paths for high‑impact system and execution issues.
- Own program governance, documentation, and communications throughout the development lifecycle, ensuring timely, accurate dissemination of decisions, execution status, and deliverables to internal stakeholders, customers, and partners.
- Define, track, and publish program metrics and KPIs, using quantitative insights to support execution reviews, continuous improvement, and program health reporting.
- Lead BOM strategy and execution from early prototype through production, facilitating BOM reviews to ensure technical integrity, cost optimization, supplier readiness, and alignment with manufacturing and sourcing strategies.
- Partner with engineering and configuration management teams to manage BOM lifecycle transitions, ensuring disciplined change control, traceability, and alignment from preliminary design through high‑volume manufacturing.
- Mentor and influence other Technical Program Managers and technical leads, elevating execution rigor, system‑level thinking, and operational excellence across the organization.
