Role Description
As a Technical Program Manager at Gridware, you’ll drive complex, multi-disciplinary projects across firmware, hardware, and supporting software systems. You’ll partner with engineers and stakeholders to plan requirements, identify risks, manage schedules, and deliver critical programs on time. You should be equally comfortable discussing system trade-offs with engineers as you are presenting recommendations to executives. This role sits at the intersection of firmware, hardware, and embedded systems with visibility into mobile, web, backend, and data platforms that integrate with our devices.
