Requirements: - Senior Technical Leadership & Life Cycle Ownership: Over 15 years of experience leading complex, integrated hardware/software programs from R&D/prototyping through NPI, high-volume production, and global customer deployment. - Strategic Financial & Operational Stewardship: Proven ability to independently manage programmatic financials (EAC, labor/non-labor forecasting, variance management, and revenue inputs), including direct experience with Earned Value Management (EVM) and serving as a Control Account Manager (CAM) or similar to ensure alignment with programmatic governance standards. - Cross-Functional & Executive Influence: Proven success as a primary technical interface, capable of synchronizing diverse teams (e.g. Engineering, Supply Chain, and Finance) while effectively communicating program health and strategic recommendations to executives and federal/commercial customers. Preferred Qualifications: - Advanced Technical Foundation: Possession of an advanced degree in a technical or business discipline, providing the academic rigor required for complex systems engineering. - Deep Domain Expertise: Significant experience in high-complexity sectors such as quantum computing, aerospace, defense, semiconductors, or optical and secure communications. - Public Sector Navigational Skills: A proven background managing programs within federal, DoD, DOE, or national laboratory environments, including navigating government contracting requirements. - Lifecycle Transition Mastery: Expert at leading systems from prototype to production, specifically overseeing production line setup, material readiness, and supply chain synchronization. - Data-Driven Financial Modeling: Ability to develop sophisticated financial models, revenue forecasts, and capacity plans that directly inform executive-level business cases and decisions. - Professional Certification & Methodology: Industry-recognized credentials (PMP, PgMP, Six Sigma, or Agile) that demonstrate a commitment to standardized, high-quality program governance. - Advanced Tool Proficiency: Power-user capabilities in technical and analytical stacks, including Jira/Confluence, GitHub, SAP/Oracle, and data visualization tools like Tableau or PowerBI. - Organizational Scaling: Demonstrated ability to build scalable TPM processes from scratch, establishing operating rhythms that improve the efficiency of the entire engineering organization. - Strategic Technology Sunset: Experience managing the full product "tail," including end-of-life transitions, technology sunsetting, and replacement planning to ensure seamless customer handoffs.
