This role offers a unique opportunity to leverage your expertise in the microelectronics and semiconductor industry to address critical challenges in global supply chain risk analysis. As the Program Manager, you will lead a small, specialized team to track and analyze trends, conduct in-depth technology assessments, respond to customer inquiries, and identify systemic vulnerabilities within the global microelectronics landscape.

While this position does not involve managing supply chain logistics or operations, a strong understanding of semiconductor industry ecosystems, technical processes, and supply chain complexities is required.

This is a remote role with the flexibility of working from home; however, candidates must live within a reasonable driving distance of the Boston, MA area to accommodate occasional site visits on short notice.

• Conduct in-depth analysis of semiconductor hardware, processes, and supply chains—from intellectual property to end-user delivery—identifying vulnerabilities and risk elements.
• Research and analyze publicly available data, including strategic planning, demand/capacity forecasts, regulatory considerations, safety and risk factors, and performance trends.
• Provide actionable recommendations and insights to mitigate supply chain risks and help government clients make informed decisions.
• Identify opportunities for process improvement in gathering open-source microelectronics data and creating risk assessments.
• Manage a small team to deliver high-quality, complex risk analysis deliverables.
• Provide on-site client support as needed for inquiries, ad-hoc reporting, and guidance on analytical methods.

Minimum Requirements:

• An active Secret U.S. Government security clearance (U.S. citizenship is required to maintain this clearance).
• Bachelor’s degree preferred; equivalent professional experience will be considered in lieu of a degree.
• 10+ years of experience in program management/support or supply chain risk analysis.
• At least 4 years of professional experience in the microelectronics/semiconductor industry.
• Proven ability to conduct detailed research and produce insightful analytical reports.
• Strong attention to detail and a demonstrated ability to manage competing priorities.
• Proficient in business tools like Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Strong understanding of n-tier supply chain risk analysis across the semiconductor ecosystem.
• Ability to lead effectively in ambiguous situations and adapt to evolving priorities.
• Exceptional relationship-building and influencing skills to engage stakeholders at all levels.
• Experience with strategic planning and process improvement initiatives related to risk analysis.
