About the Role
~1 min readWe build the hardware behind frontier AI, and getting it into volume production reliably is a team sport. We're looking for a Technical Program Manager to drive our manufacturing test programs - the hardware and software used to test our products at the board, sub-module, and system level - from new product introduction (NPI) through to full production. You'll be the connective tissue between engineering and the factory, turning new test capabilities into qualified, repeatable, high-volume production flows and keeping them on schedule as we ramp.
