Technical Program Manager II-6232

itD is seeking a Technical Program Manager II to lead end-to-end display algorithm development, validation, and execution for next-generation AR/Smart Glasses products. This role is responsible for driving complex cross-functional programs spanning algorithm development, software implementation, hardware testing, and prototype validation to ensure display compensation algorithms meet image quality requirements. The ideal candidate brings deep experience in hardware/software co-development, display technologies, and technical program management, along with a proven track record of delivering complex, multi-workstream engineering programs on aggressive timelines.

• →Lead end-to-end validation planning and execution across algorithm development, hardware testing, prototype software validation, production software readiness, and human factors evaluations.
• →Drive cross-functional alignment across display hardware, software engineering, systems architecture, testing, and product management teams to ensure successful program execution.
• →Coordinate hardware allocation, prototype availability, and testing resources to remove blockers and maintain validation schedules.
• →Identify program risks, maintain a comprehensive risk register, and proactively drive mitigation plans with clear ownership and resolution paths.
• →Communicate program health, milestone progress, validation outcomes, risks, and executive-level updates to engineering leadership and cross-functional stakeholders.
• →Develop and manage integrated program schedules while tracking dependencies across hardware, firmware, software, and validation workstreams.
• →Partner with engineering teams to ensure display compensation algorithms achieve image quality goals and support successful product development milestones.

• →Attend regular internal practice community meetings.
• →Collaborate with your itD practice team on industry thought leadership.
• →Complete client case studies and learning material (blogs, media material).
• →Build out material to contribute to the Digital Transformation practice.
