Technical Project Manager

Role Overview

We are seeking a technically strong Technical Project Manager (TPM) experienced in managing the development of embedded hardware and firmware-based products from samples to production. The ideal candidate will bridge engineering execution and project delivery—ensuring complete handover to manufacturing and robust production readiness.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead end-to-end project execution for hardware and firmware-based products, from requirement definition through design, validation, and production release.
• Coordinate cross-functional teams (hardware, firmware, mechanical, test, and production) to ensure timely and high-quality deliverables.
• Drive hardware design reviews, firmware integration milestones, and validation test planning.
• Establish and maintain comprehensive project schedules, risk registers, and progress status reports.
• Collaborate with supply chain and production teams to ensure manufacturability (DFM/DFT) and readiness for mass production.
• Ensure product documentation, BOMs, and firmware releases are version-controlled and properly handed over to production.
• Facilitate effective communication between engineering, quality, and manufacturing departments for smooth production transitions.
• Support issue resolution during pilot runs and production ramp-up.
• Track key project KPIs, budgets, and stakeholder expectations throughout the project lifecycle.

Qualifications and Skills

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Embedded Systems, or related discipline.
• 2–3 years of experience, with at least 1+ years in a technical project management or program management role.
• Proven experience in embedded product development involving both hardware and firmware.
• Hands-on understanding of hardware design cycles (schematics, PCB, validation) and embedded software development processes.
• Demonstrated ability in product industrialization and production handover.
• Proficiency with project management tools (JIRA, MS Project, Confluence, or equivalents).
• Strong communication, leadership, and stakeholder management skills.

Good-to-have Experience

• Worked with automotive, EV, or industrial embedded systems (e.g., BMS, controllers, sensors).
• Familiarity with quality standards such as ISO 9001, IATF 16949, or AIS standards.
• Experience in vendor coordination and contract manufacturing.
