Technical Program Manager – VLSI

What You'll Be Doing

• Translate complex VLSI project management methodologies into highly scalable, full-stack software solutions.
• Develop, containerize (eg: Kubernetes, Docker), and maintain AI-driven agents to automate routine project management tasks such as schedule tracking, resource mapping and dependency mapping.
• Partner with VLSI Program Managers and Engineering Leads to assess how work gets done, systematically upgrading processes from undocumented, manual tasks into measured baselines, and ultimately into robust, self-improving automated systems.
• Use Python, modern web frameworks, and AI-assisted environments (like Cursor, Claude, Codex, etc.) to build internal tools and API integrations that seamlessly ingest lab and engineering data into real-time program health dashboards.
• Reduce manual overhead for technical leads by implementing CI/CD pipelines and DevOps best practices for our internal project management tooling.

What We Need To See

• BS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field or equivalent experience (Masters preferred)
• 5+ years of engineering experience with 2+ years of project or program management experience, backed by a solid technical/engineering foundation.
• Proficiency in Python is mandatory. You should have robust full-stack and DevOps experience (Kubernetes, containerization, cloud infrastructure) and be comfortable using AI-assisted coding environments.
• Proven experience or strong interest in deploying Large Language Models (LLMs) and agentic frameworks to solve operational bottlenecks.
• Deep understanding of organizational workflow maturity—the ability to identify process gaps, add necessary telemetry, and engineer the transition from manual playbooks to reliable code.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment where you must maintain composure while embracing rapid changes in AI technology.

Ways To Stand Out From The Crowd

• Prior experience in Hardware Project Management or exposure to the ASIC/SoC development lifecycle.
• Advanced experience with API integrations between project management tools (e.g., Smartsheet, Jira) and custom full-stack applications.
• Background in data engineering or building automated KPI dashboards.
