Full Job Description

Building a new-to-world personal device is not a single act of invention — it is a symphony of multiple interdependent work streams spanning silicon, software, industrial design, operations, and a global network of strategic partners, all converging on a single ship date with zero margin for error. Someone has to see the whole board, coordinate the plays and the players, and make it all land. That someone is you. As Principal Technical Program Manager on the Personal Mobile Devices team, you will be the connective tissue across every discipline required to bring next-generation devices from concept to customers’ hands at scale. You will orchestrate complex, multi-year programs that span product, design, hardware engineering, software and AI, operations, supply chain, and external vendor and partner ecosystems — driving alignment, resolving dependencies, facilitating problem soling, managing risks, holding schedule, keeping stakeholders informed, and bringing key operating executives together to make decisions. You will be the linchpin ensuring flawless execution across organizations that may have different ways of working, but share a single mission, inventing, simplifying and delivering for customers at scale. Key job responsibilities • Own end-to-end program execution for next-generation device programs — from early concept and architecture through EVT/DVT/PVT, software integration, regulatory certification, and mass production ramp. • Orchestrate across disciplines — serve as the single-threaded conductor connecting hardware engineering, software/AI, industrial design, operations, supply chain, quality, and customer experience teams into a coherent execution plan through launch. • Manage external partner and vendor relationships — work with the respective internal teams to drive alignment with strategic silicon partners, contract manufacturers, component suppliers, and technology licensors; hold external partners to the same bar of quality and urgency as internal
