Job Description Summary
The Lead Program Integrator (LPI) is a highly visible, mission-critical leadership role within the Magnetic Resonance (MR)'s Program Management and Integration Office (PMO).

The LPI owns end-to-end leadership of the New Product Introduction (NPI) development process, driving day-to-day execution while establishing the planning rigor, governance, and controls required to successfully deliver complex programs.

The LPI is the integrator, decision-maker, and execution leader who turns strategy into results.

The LPI will also lead strategic work not directly tied to traditional NPI, including M&A integration activities. This includes planning and coordinating software integration efforts, supporting delivery across the software lifecycle, and partnering with software subject matter experts to assess solution quality, maturity, and readiness.

  • Proactively identify, assess, and manage program risks and issues, developing contingency plans and tracking mitigation actions to closure.
  • Establish and maintain effective communication mechanisms to enable alignment, transparency, and execution rigor across global business units, functions, program teams, third-party partners, and business leadership.
  • Establish cost target baselines, track progress across product and service-related cost elements, and communicate NPI product cost status to the program core team and business leadership.
  • Ensure program cost management activities are aligned with broader MR product and service productivity initiatives, leveraging common tools and synchronized efforts to maximize business impact.
  • Ensure all regulatory deliverables are met by working closely with Regulatory Affairs and cross-functional stakeholders throughout the program lifecycle.
  • Lead planning, scheduling, and execution of global cross-functional teams, including UX Design, Usability, Software Engineering, firmware, and hardware teams, while operating within the SAFe framework.
  • Leads change through creative solutions to product, process and system design issues
  • Support M&A integration activities by coordinating third-party software integration, aligning acquired capabilities with MR product workflows, and partnering with software SMEs to assess software quality, maturity, readiness, and integration risk.
