Senior Staff, Technical Program Management, Power Package NPI
About this role
Own the execution of Renesas’ strategic AI/Datacenter Infrastructure Power package engineering and New Product Introduction (NPI) programs, from development and qualification through production ramp, in a fast-paced, high-growth environment. You will collaborate with product Technical Program Managers (TPMs) and personnel embedded at key global OSATs, to deliver committed schedules and quality, reliability, and production-readiness objectives.
You will partner closely with Package Engineering leadership, Power product group teams, and OSAT/CM partners, escalating critical risks early and leading cross-functional technical task forces on issues that threaten quality, reliability, yield, manufacturability, cost, or schedule.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
• Lead Technical Program Management execution for strategic AI/Datacenter Infrastructure Power NPI and package engineering programs, directly managing complex programs as needed. • Partner with Package Engineering Directors and technical leads, providing program-level execution leadership, governance, and accountability while keeping technical ownership clear and unduplicated. • Establish and drive end-to-end NPI program plans, milestones, critical paths, and resource alignment to achieve committed schedules. • Establish a disciplined program management operating model covering development, qualification, customer requirements, production readiness, ramp, and transition to volume manufacturing. • Continuously improve standardized processes, templates, metrics, escalation mechanisms, and lessons-learned practices, and drive consistent execution standards across internal teams and strategic OSAT locations. • Proactively identify technical, quality, reliability, supply, manufacturing, and schedule risks and establish mitigation plans. • Escalate critical issues with clear recommendations and decision points. • Lead cross-functional technical task forces, collaborating closely with internal teams and external partners (OSAT/CM, customers), on issues that threaten quality, reliability, yield, manufacturability, qualification, schedule, or customer commitments, including process-integration and assembly problems. • Drive root-cause analysis and data-based decisions, and hold corrective/preventive actions through to closure. • Coordinate closely with Power product group partners (Design, Application, Marketing), Product Engineering, Reliability, Quality, Operations, and Supply Chain to remove execution barriers and maintain program momentum. • Establish program dashboards and management systems giving transparent visibility into milestones, critical path, risks, issues, action owners, and recovery plans. • Collaborate and drive key OSAT/CM partners through program reviews, milestone tracking, issue escalation, and recovery plans. • Ensure Engineering Build Requests (EBRs) are executed on committed schedule at each OSAT, tracking progress, identifying delays, and driving recovery actions. • Align OSAT/CM development activities (DOE, process optimization, process-window verification, production controls) and qualification and ramp readiness with overall NPI program objectives.. • Build strong working relationships with OSAT/CM executive and technical leadership to improve responsiveness, accountability, and execution of critical AI/Datacenter Power programs. • Ensure effective transition from development and qualification into production through readiness reviews, ramp monitoring, and issue management. • Provide concise, fact-based communication to directors and senior leadership on program health, critical risks, schedule recovery, resource needs, and decisions required. • Support package technology roadmap execution by translating strategic priorities into executable programs, milestones, resources, and deliverables.
