The Role

You'll join our Hyperscale Operations team as a Technical Program Manager to drive the successful qualification and production ramp of our cutting-edge hyperscale products. This is a critical leadership role where you will manage complex technical and operational programs, collaborating closely with hardware design, manufacturing partners, and internal engineering teams. Your mission will be to onboard new JDM/CM vendors, streamline execution, and ensure seamless delivery in an environment defined by innovation and massive scale.

What You'Ll Do

• Lead and manage the entire program lifecycle for new hardware and operational initiatives, defining milestones, schedules, and budgets to ensure on-time product readiness and launch.
• Partner with hardware design teams and external manufacturing partners (JDM/CMs) to orchestrate and accelerate the technical qualification, testing, and volume production ramp of hyperscale solutions.
• Own the onboarding and integration of new vendors and contract manufacturers, including conducting site audits, defining success metrics, and developing robust, scalable execution plans.
• Identify, analyze, and mitigate project risks and engineering blockers proactively, providing clear, actionable recommendations and communicating strategy and dependencies to all stakeholders, including senior leadership.
• Drive continuous improvement by developing and implementing new operational processes and recommending tools that enhance efficiency and execution quality across the supply chain and product lifecycle.

What You Bring

• Demonstrated expertise in managing complex technical and operational programs within a hardware or high-volume manufacturing environment.
• Exceptional cross-functional program leadership skills, with the ability to effectively drive consensus, bridge communication gaps, and secure commitments from diverse engineering, operations, and external vendor teams.
• Proven capability in vendor management and operational due diligence, including successful experience with new vendor onboarding, site assessments, and risk mitigation in a fast-paced setting.
• Strong foundation in program management methodologies (e.g., Agile, Waterfall) applied to hardware and software product releases, with a consistent track record of delivering against aggressive schedules.
• Highly developed communication and organizational skills to articulate complex technical issues, operational challenges, and strategic direction clearly and concisely to both technical teams and executive audiences.
• Familiarity with manufacturing test engineering for high volume HW products, with a strong point of view on the trade-offs between cost and quality.

We are primarily an in-office environment and therefore, you will be expected to work from the Santa Clara office in compliance with Pure’s policies, unless you are on PTO, or work travel, or other approved leave.
