We are seeking a Technical Program Manager to lead cross-functional programs spanning silicon, hardware, firmware, software, system integration, and product delivery. You will partner with technical teams to turn complex development plans into coordinated execution. This includes building schedules, managing dependencies, identifying risks, facilitating technical decisions, and ensuring that hardware and software teams remain aligned through major product milestones. Direct ASIC tapeout experience is valuable, but we will also consider candidates who have led sophisticated hardware-development programs involving embedded systems, processors, automotive electronics, robotics, aerospace, consumer devices, or advanced computing platforms. The position is based in Laguna Hills, California. Relocation assistance may be available for qualified candidates.
