Hardware Infrastructure is seeking a Senior Product Manager to lead the strategy and evolution of our internal planning and delivery platforms used across silicon development. While these systems are foundational to chip program management, this role will expand and adapt the platform to support diverse operating models across internal teams — ensuring flexibility, clarity, and alignment across diverse program workflows. Hardware Infrastructure serves as the platform foundation for silicon development. We build and operate the systems, environments, and tools that enable our hardware engineers to design, simulate, validate, and tape out chips with speed, reliability, and scale. Our mission is to improve engineering velocity while ensuring the performance, efficiency, and resilience required to deliver world-class silicon.
What You'll Be Doing
- Define the product vision and strategy for internal roadmap and execution platforms, aligning the platform with Hardware Infrastructure’s mission and diverse engineering workflows.
- Evolve the platform to support multiple execution models and frameworks (agile, waterfall, hybrid), creating a consistent framework for planning, tracking, and risk management while accommodating team-specific workflows.
- Drive workflow standardization and guidelines, balancing flexibility with clarity to reduce friction, enable alignment, and improve predictability of program execution.
- Conduct user discovery, mapping, and analysis across teams to identify friction points, workflow gaps, and chances to improve usability and efficiency.
- Define product requirements and success metrics (ex: adoption within target workflows, reduction in manual coordination, alignment of schedules, risk visibility) to guide prioritization and measure impact.
- Collaborate with TPMs, Engineering, and UX teams to ensure the platform evolves to meet strategic goals while remaining technically feasible and operationally scalable.
- Advocate for a user-centered approach within the platform, helping teams adopt tools in a way that improves execution, visibility, and collaboration.
- Enable cross-team alignment and communication, ensuring all participants understand and benefit from improvements to the platform.
What We Need To See
- B.S. (or equivalent experience) in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science or a related technical field
- 12+ years of proven experience across software and hardware engineering, coupled with experience in technical product management, developer tools, or workflow/platform product roles
- Experience defining and evolving internal platforms or complex workflow tools that serve multiple teams with diverse processes and operating models
- Deep understanding of Engineering workflows - including waterfall, agile, hybrid and cross-functional program management - and the ability to translate those into effective, scalable tooling
- Workflow and process design - proven ability to map, analyze and optimize processes across waterfall, agile, hybrid and other mixed models
- Strong internal customer empathy - can understand diverse workflows and operational needs across teams with very different execution styles
- Analytical approach, including defining success measures, tracking adoption, and finding opportunities to improve workflow efficiency and clarity.
- Proven track record of influencing internal customers and driving adoption of new processes or tools, particularly in organizations with established practices.
Ways To Stand Out From The Crowd
- Advanced degree (MBA, MS in Engineering/CS, or equivalent), operating at the intersection of technology and organizational strategy
- Certifications such as PMP, Six Sigma/Lean, Organizational Design, Scrum Product Owner, etc.
