Job Description

Technical Program Manager coordinating embedded software programs for EnCharge AI’s energy-efficient AI compute systems. Aligning firmware, drivers, hardware, silicon bring-up, and customer deployments.

Responsibilities:

  • Own end-to-end program management for embedded software workstreams, including device drivers, firmware, boot-loaders, and board support packages for EnCharge accelerators
  • Build and maintain integrated program schedules aligned with chip tape-out, silicon bring-up, board bring-up, and customer/OEM delivery dates
  • Partner with embedded software, ASIC/hardware, platform, and validation teams to define scope, sequence dependencies, and track execution
  • Identify, track, and drive resolution of cross-team risks and blockers
  • Drive silicon bring-up and platform enablement, including early firmware, boot flows, device initialization, memory management, command submission, interrupts, power management, and hardware/software integration
  • Run planning, standups, milestone reviews, and retrospectives
  • Drive execution across geographically distributed engineering teams and external partners as needed
  • Help build the program management function, including process, tooling, and reporting

Requirements:

  • 8+ years of technical program or project management experience, with a meaningful portion spent on embedded software, drivers, firmware, or low-level systems software
  • Direct experience coordinating software programs tightly coupled to hardware, such as silicon bring-up or board bring-up
  • Background ideally in AI/ML accelerators, semiconductors, robotics, or a related hardware-software domain
  • Background in Linux kernel driver development processes, JTAG/lab-based debug workflows, or hardware validation methodologies
  • Experience with FPGA simulation and emulator environments such as Zebu, Veloce, or Palladium
  • Strong understanding of embedded firmware, device drivers, SoC/accelerator architecture, memory and DMA, interrupts and command queues, boot and initialization, hardware/software interfaces, and performance and system-level debugging
  • Track record of managing complex, multi-team schedules with hard external dependencies
  • Strong risk management instincts
  • Excellent written and verbal communication, with ability to flex between engineering detail and executive summary
