Job Description & How to Apply Below
The Role Screen Innovations is looking for a Senior Technical Program Manager to drive cross-functional execution across our hardware, firmware, software, and manufacturing teams. This is a hands-on role for someone who can bring structure to fast-moving, engineering-driven product development without slowing it down — someone equally comfortable in a factory walkthrough and a sprint planning meeting.
You'll partner closely with Engineering, Product, Manufacturing/Operations, and executive leadership to plan, de-risk, and ship new products — from motorized shade systems and screen materials to the connected-home electronics (like Janus) that control them.
What You'll DoOwn end-to-end program planning and execution for major product initiatives, spanning mechanical/industrial design, electrical/firmware engineering, embedded software, and manufacturing readiness
Build and maintain program roadmaps, schedules, and dependency maps across hardware and software work streams, and keep leadership informed with clear, honest status reporting
Identify risks early — supply chain, tooling, design, integration — and drive mitigation plans before they become fire drills
Facilitate cross-functional rituals (planning, standups, design reviews, gate reviews) that keep engineering, product, and operations aligned without adding unnecessary process overhead
Coordinate new product introduction (NPI) from concept through pilot production and full manufacturing ramp on the factory floor
Work directly with suppliers and internal manufacturing/operations teams to align component availability, tooling, and production timelines with program milestones
Manage scope and trade-off decisions in partnership with product management and engineering leads, keeping programs on schedule and within budget
Champion continuous improvement of program management practices, tooling, and documentation as SI's product portfolio grows
What We're Looking For6+ years of experience in technical program or project management, with a track record of shipping physical/hardware products that include embedded electronics or connected-home/IoT components
Demonstrated ability to manage programs that span mechanical engineering, electrical/firmware engineering, and manufacturing — not just software
Strong working knowledge of NPI processes, from prototype through pilot to volume production
Comfortable reading and reasoning about schedules, BOMs, and technical trade-offs well enough to challenge engineers and hold teams accountable
Excellent written and verbal communication skills; able to translate technical complexity into clear updates for both engineers and executives
Experience working directly with manufacturing operations and/or suppliers, ideally in a facility that designs and builds its own hardwareA bias toward action and pragmatic problem-solving — comfortable in a company where things move quickly and priorities can shift
Bachelor's degree in engineering, computer science, or a related technical field (or equivalent practical experience)
Nice to have:
Experience with smart home, AV, or building automation products
Familiarity with LEAN manufacturing principlesPMP, PgMP, or similar program management certification
Experience with PLM/PDM tools and program management software (e.g., Jira, Asana, Smartsheet)
