Job Description

Sr. Technical Program Manager

Lightmatter is a photonic computer company that is redefining what computers and human beings are capable of by building the engines that will drive discoveries and progress sustainably. With modern human progress relying heavily on computers, the world has hit a dead end with traditional transistors, and the prospect of constantly building data centers is an environmental nightmare. Lightmatter builds chips for artificial intelligence computing. Our architecture leverages the unique properties of light to enable a fast and efficient compute platform. We created a solution in photonic computing: using photons instead of electrons to take advantage of their higher bandwidth.

If you have a passion for working cross-functionally, leading projects to success, and doing impactful work, like helping build the world's first optical computers, you should join the team at Lightmatter!

In addition, you'll partner with executives and engineering leadership to develop and manage milestones and schedules, for the many moving parts that need to come together.

  • Provide the required hands-on project management, cross-functional coordination, and internal and external team communications to deliver outstanding program outcomes
  • Take responsibility for release schedules and milestones in a fast-paced environment
  • Opportunities to engage with vendors and customers in external program management activities

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in a technical field
  • 8+ years of experience in semiconductor technologies and participation in multiple tapeouts, bring up and validation efforts
  • Experience in ASIC, SoC, ASSP, packaging, test, system/server, or validation
  • Hands-on experience in hardware program management

  • Proven ability to identify and implement process improvements, characterized by a high level of responsiveness, and passion for enhancing operational efficiency

  • Strong teamwork skills with the ability to collaborate with multiple functional teams across a variety of fields
