This is a Senior Manager and Program Manager role in the Client Product Engineering Team. Responsibilities include defining and managing key product deliverables and schedules and driving cross-functional activities. The applicant will be responsible for pre-silicon planning and, once silicon arrives, will drive product performance, test, customer samples execution, and high-volume manufacturing readiness. Managing horizontally across several functional organizations is a key job function.

The role requires working with Asia Engineering and Operations counterparts, interacting with the Product Engineering organization, and coordinating with Design, Supply Chain, Quality, Business, and Customer Engineering. The applicant must be a team player with a commitment to meeting deadlines and an aptitude to thrive in a fast-paced multi-tasking environment.

The ideal candidate will be an experienced Product Development Engineer who encourages their team to find effective solutions to complex problems and drive continuous improvement. They should have a technical understanding of silicon performance and/or test, be a technical leader and innovator, and be able to work with geographically distributed product engineering teams. The candidate should have a passion for product engineering and a willingness to dive into technical areas outside of their expertise to remove blockers.

They should also possess excellent communication skills with diverse audiences ranging from executives to new hires, demonstrate the ability to learn quickly, and be adaptable to real-time changes in business or customer requirements.
