Responsibilities
- Own the end‑to‑end program lifecycle of electronic products from ideation to delivery, integrating hardware, software/firmware, mechanical and industrial design workstreams into a single executable plan.
- Drive disciplined stage‑gate execution across concept, prototyping, EVT, DVT, PVT and mass production, ensuring entry/exit criteria are met at each phase.
- Create and maintain integrated program plans, schedules, dependency maps and risk registers; surface critical path and proactively remove impediments.
- Plan and manage prototyping and bring‑up cycles, coordinating board bring‑up, integration, debug and iteration loops between hardware and firmware teams.

- Lead commercialization/industrialization activities – NPI ramp, manufacturing line setup and transfer, tooling, first‑article and yield improvement at the contract manufacturer.
- Coordinate certification and regulatory compliance (EMC, safety, ingress and applicable automotive/regional standards) within the program timeline.
- Partner with sourcing and operations on component qualification, supplier readiness, lead times and supply continuity.
- Manage cost, schedule and scope; track program health, costs and roadmaps through clear, communicable dashboards for leadership and stakeholders.
- Run Agile/Scrum for software and firmware deliverables, Kanban for recurring activities, and milestone‑based tracking for hardware; flex the model to fit each workstream.
- Communicate status, risks and trade‑offs to leadership and cross‑functional stakeholders; build consensus and enable visibility across the organization.
- Plan achievable goals working with vendor/partner PMs and internal cross‑functional teams; make timely corrections and alternative plans to keep final deliverables on time.

- Hands‑on exposure across the full stack — hardware, embedded software/firmware and mechanical — with the ability to converse credibly with each function.
- Demonstrated experience taking products through prototyping and into commercialization/industrialization and mass production.
- Strong program planning, risk management and cross‑functional leadership skills, with experience managing external manufacturing and supplier partners.
- Comfortable operating in both Agile development and structured hardware stage‑gate (EVT/DVT/PVT) environments.
