Full Job Description
We are looking for a Technical Program Manager (TPM) to join our Mobile Engineering organization. In this high-impact role, you will drive the execution of complex, cross-functional mobile applications that define the future of physical security—spanning AI-powered video surveillance and cloud-based access management. Our mobile solutions provide customers with seamless, intuitive access to manager and monitor their security systems worldwide.
In this role, you will report directly to the Mobile Engineering Manager of Avigilon, serving as a strategic partner to engineering leadership and a primary driver of technical delivery.
The Role:
As a TPM, you are more than a project manager; you are a technical leader who understands the "how" as much as the "when." You will navigate the intersection of hardware, firmware, cloud software, mobile applications, and AI analytics. You will be responsible for orchestrating the entire product development lifecycle, ensuring that our roadmap is translated into high-quality, scalable solutions that protect people and property worldwide.
Key Responsibilities:
• Program Lifecycle Management: Lead the end-to-end delivery of complex programs, managing dependencies across hardware, embedded software, cloud, and mobile teams.
• Strategic Alignment: Work closely with Engineering and Product Management leaders to translate business strategy into actionable technical milestones and execution plans.
• Risk Mitigation: Proactively identify technical bottlenecks, resource constraints, and cross-functional dependencies. Develop mitigation strategies to keep programs on track.
• Technical Problem Solving: Dive deep into architectural discussions and technical hurdles. Use your mobile engineering background to help teams make trade-offs between scope, schedule, and technical debt.
• Stakeholder Communication: Provide transparent, data-driven updates to executive leadership. You will be the "single source of truth" for program health, budget, and timelines.
• Process Excellence: Continuously improve the Mobile engineering execution model, implementing best practices for Agile, Waterfall, or Hybrid methodologies as needed.
Qualifications & Skills:
• Experience: 8+ years of experience in Technical Program Management or Engineering Leadership, specifically within a product development environment. Bonus points: Experience working with mobile devices.
• Domain Expertise: Proven track record in one or more of the following: Android and/or iOS Development, Physical Security (VMS/ACS), IoT, Embedded Systems, Cloud Infrastructure (AWS/Azure), or AI/Video Analytics.
• Strategic Thinking: Experience working directly with executive-level leadership (VP/AVP level) to align engineering output with business goals.
• Execution Focus: Expert-level knowledge of SDLC and hardware development cycles. You know how to get things done in a fast-paced, global organization.
• Communication: Exceptional ability to communicate complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders and vice versa.
