Role Purpose

The Technical Program Manager (TPM) acts as the operational engine and central technical interface representing the factory's production performance, readiness, and manufacturing improvements directly to customer.

You will not only be an administrative metrics tracker—you are accountable for the results, finalizing technical decisions for the project and factory. You will coordinate cross-functional teams through tight delivery schedules to perform validation builds, manage technical asset readiness from NPI to mass production, and masterfully balance customer expectations with internal factory realities.
