Overview

We're looking for a Technical Program Manager to drive program execution and manage stakeholders and dependencies of our uLED backplane silicon programs, from early development through high-volume manufacturing. As a Display Silicon TPM, you will work across two primary sets of relationships: between Client display silicon team and its cross-functional partners inside Client (uLED, test, packaging, sourcing); and between Client and our external foundry and silicon vendor partners. You will translate high-level vendor milestones into task-level schedules, track cross-functional dependencies, manage 2-way and 3-way communication between Client and vendors, and ensure decisions reach every team that depends on them. The role involves close collaboration with display silicon architects, test and product engineering, sourcing, and external vendor program management to drive complex multi-stakeholder programs to closure. The ideal TPM brings strong cross-functional execution and follow-through, the communication skill to keep stakeholders engaged and informed at the right level of detail, and the discipline to translate ambiguity into clear, well-tracked action. This role offers the opportunity to work closely with world-class silicon, packaging, and sourcing teams across Client Reality Labs to deliver the silicon that ships in Client AR and smart glasses.

Responsibilities

• Internal Cross-Functional Coordination: Run recurring meetings and program reviews that bring uLED, test, packaging, and sourcing teams into alignment.
• Track decisions, surface dependencies and risks, and resolve gaps before they require escalation.
• External Vendor Interface Management: Run recurring meetings and program reviews with external foundry and silicon vendor partners, including joint working sessions, milestone reviews, and face-to-face meetings.
• Drive vendors to execute against Client-specified requirements, maintain integrated program schedules that bridge Client milestones with vendor-committed dates, and surface misalignment early.
• Program Tracking and Reporting: Maintain authoritative trackers for program status across internal and external workstreams. Produce milestone readouts and decision items for silicon leadership and cross-functional stakeholders.
• Risk Management: Maintain a living risk register covering technical execution, vendor delivery risk, IP and confidentiality concerns, and schedule risk. Drive mitigation plans with named owners and resolution dates. Produce risk summaries for leadership readouts.
