ANA is headquartered in Henderson, Nevada, with locations in Cypress, California, and Spartanburg, South Carolina. ANA is growing and scaling, and we are seeking an NPI Program Manager to join our growing team in an on-site position in Henderson, Nevada. The New Product Introduction (NPI) Program Manager leads ANA's cross-functional phase-gate process for new products and major variants, from approved concept through production stabilization.
The role aligns Product Management, Engineering, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, Quality and Regulatory, Finance, Service and Aftermarket, Sales, and Marketing. It is accountable for program governance, timely decisions, launch readiness, and cross-functional alignment – not detailed engineering execution. The NPI Program Manager facilitates evidence-based gate decisions and recommends whether programs should be held, conditionally released, or advanced. The role partners closely with the Engineering Project Manager, who owns engineering execution, and with functional workstream owners, who remain accountable for their deliverables.
This fully onsite position operates weekdays from 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. and reports to the Director of Product Management.
Role & ResponsibilitiesNPI Portfolio & Gate Governance- Own and continuously improve ANA's phase-gate process, including entry and exit criteria, required evidence, functional ownership, decision rights, approvals, and standard templates.
- Facilitate gate and program reviews; confirm readiness evidence, document decisions and exceptions, and drive actions to closure.
- Manage portfolio priorities, sequencing, cross-program dependencies, and shared-resource conflicts.

- Provide evidence-based status and escalations to leadership, recommending trade-offs among schedule, cost, scope, quality, customer, and resource priorities.
- Partner with the Engineering Project Manager on every new product to integrate engineering milestones, technical dependencies, and design maturity into the cross-functional program plan.
- Maintain clear role boundaries: the Engineering Project Manager owns the detailed engineering schedule, technical execution, design and validation coordination, change‑control workflows, technical documentation, and engineering master data. The NPI Program Manager owns gate governance, cross-functional commitments, business readiness, and escalation.
- Coordinate cross‑functional review of scope and design changes for cost, schedule, inventory, supplier, manufacturing, quality, regulatory, service, and commercial impact, using Engineering's change‑control record as the technical source of truth.
- Maintain the program‑level risk, issue, and dependency view; coordinate mitigation and elevate unresolved items while Engineering manages detailed technical risks.
- Convene all gate functions – Product Management, Engineering, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, Quality and Regulatory, Finance, Service and Aftermarket, Sales, and Marketing – to define deliverables and confirm readiness.
