About The Position

As a Technical Manufacturing Program Manager at Fauna, you will own the integrated program that brings our hardware from development through production — connecting workstreams across contract manufacturing, supply chain, quality, and manufacturing engineering into a unified plan with clear milestones, dependencies, and accountability. You are the person ensuring all functions are moving in lockstep, risks are surfaced early, and the right decisions are made at the right time. This is a high-impact program management role for someone who thrives in ambiguous, fast-moving hardware environments and knows how to bring structure without bureaucracy.

Requirements

• 5+ years of technical product or program management experience
• 7+ years of working directly with engineering teams experience
• 3+ years of software development experience
• 5+ years of technical program management working directly with software engineering teams experience
• Experience managing programs across cross functional teams, building processes and coordinating release schedules

Nice To Haves

• 5+ years of project management disciplines including scope, schedule, budget, quality, along with risk and critical path management experience
• Experience managing projects across cross functional teams, building sustainable processes and coordinating release schedules
• Experience defining KPI's/SLA's used to drive multi-million dollar businesses and reporting to senior leadership

Responsibilities

• Own and maintain the integrated master schedule across manufacturing, supply chain, quality, and engineering workstreams — with clear milestones, owners, dependencies, and critical path visibility
• Build and scale the program management processes, tools, and reporting that the team runs on — appropriate for a team that is growing quickly and building these systems for the first time
• Look around corners: identify risks and interdependencies before they become blockers, surface them early, and drive mitigation plans to resolution
• Establish and drive the operating cadence that keeps workstreams synchronized and decisions moving
• Drive alignment across functional leads, contractors, partners, and workstream owners to ensure coordinated delivery against shared milestones
• Manage escalation paths and ensure leadership has the visibility it needs to make informed tradeoff decisions on schedule, cost, and quality
• Partner with supply chain, quality, and others to understand workstream health and ensure interdependencies are reflected in the integrated plan
• Ensure ECOs, tooling decisions, and process changes are communicated across all affected workstreams with appropriate lead time
• Lead post-mortem and lessons-learned processes after each build phase to improve execution on subsequent cycles
• Mentor team members on program rigor, stakeholder management, and best practices as the organization grows

Benefits

• sign-on payments
• restricted stock units (RSUs)
• health insurance (medical, dental, vision, prescription, Basic Life & AD&D insurance and option for Supplemental life plans, EAP, Mental Health Support, Medical Advice Line, Flexible Spending Accounts, Adoption and Surrogacy Reimbursement coverage)
