Job Summary – Technical Program Manager, Smart Manufacturing AI Pathfinding & Innovation (AIPI)

We are seeking a highly strategic and technically fluent Technical Program Manager (TPM) to join our Smart Manufacturing AI Pathfinding & Innovation (AIPI) team. In this role, you will sit at the absolute forefront of technological discovery, guiding initiatives from speculative research concepts into functional proofs-of-concept (PoCs). This team focuses explicitly on exploring unproven AI architectures, next-generation large language models (LLMs), speculative multimodal systems, and emerging agentic frameworks.

As an AIPI TPM, you will thrive in deep ambiguity. You aren't just tracking timelines; you are structuring the discovery process itself. You will bridge the gap between research, machine learning engineers, infrastructure teams, and executive leaders to systematically de-risk and validate the future of our AI technical roadmap.

This role requires a strong technical foundation and hands-on experience in managing complex AI/ML and data-driven projects. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams including data scientists, engineers, SMEs, and senior leadership to define functional objectives, translate them into actionable plans, and ensure seamless execution.

Job Responsibilities:

• Drive the daily work and enable the long-term strategy of AIPI programs.
• Develop and document processes and methodologies to drive consistency across AIPI initiatives.
• Represent the AIPI function in cross-functional operations initiatives/working teams/meetings to further priorities, establish relationships and act as liaison between organizations.
• Develop, coordinate, and sustain top-level organizational objectives with regular read-outs to senior/executive stakeholders.
• Oversee all aspects of AI pathfinding projects, including resourcing and timeline.
• Identify and work to close any technical gap or barrier stalling project achievement.
• Design and maintain scalable project roadmaps aligned with strategic goals.
• Act as a central point of contact and single source of truth for AIPI programs.
• Advise leadership on technical feasibility, risk mitigation, and resource allocation to optimize outcomes.
• Partner to identify technical bottlenecks, evaluate trade-offs, and decide when to pivot, scale, or sunset experimental paths.
• Remove technical and operational barriers so research teams can move fast.
• Communicate high-level technical risks and breakthroughs clearly to non-technical executives.
• Establish quick learning loops, milestones, and metrics for unproven technologies.

Track Objective and Program/Project Progress:

• Partner closely with stakeholders and SMEs to develop meaningful, measurable objectives and actions.
• Implement and oversee key metrics to ensure deliverables are achieved and have desired impact.
• Provide clear data analysis to communicate project status, results and business impact.
• Propose and develop processes and policies to drive consistency across the organization and eliminate work for senior leadership.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Computer Science, Engineering or other related technical degree
• 5+ years experience in complex program management and demonstrated success in global program execution
• Expertise in program management, project management, and vendor relationship management
• Extensive experience interacting with senior executives.
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to make data-driven decisions in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
• Proven ability to manage complex technical programs, coordinate cross-functional teams, and drive projects to successful completion while balancing competing priorities and constraints.
• Ability to navigate ambiguity, and shape unstructured, exploratory ideas into defined experimental roadmaps.
• AI Literacy: Solid foundational understanding of AI concepts, including deep learning, neural network architectures, transformers, training vs. inference lifecycles, and modern data processing workflows.
