Technical Program Manager 3

In the Global Products Group, we are dedicated to excellence in the design and engineering ofLam's etch and deposition products. We drive innovation to ensure our cutting-edge solutionsare helping to solve the biggest challenges in the semiconductor industry.

Own the coordination and execution of the individual part portfolios. This role will create a single view of all projects, enable Product Management to prioritize the portfolio, drive execution across engineering, supply chain, and suppliers, and ensure forecast and supply requirements are aligned with business demand.

Project Portfolio Management

• Create and maintain a single master list of all projects.
• Organize projects so Product Management can prioritize based on customer need, business priority, technical urgency, supply risk and required timing.
• Track active projects through completion, including owner, status, milestones, dependencies, risks, decisions and open actions.
• Establish a regular portfolio review and highlight items requiring PM or leadership decisions.

Cross-Functional Program Coordination

• Serve as the central coordination point across Product Management, engineering, supply chain, and suppliers.
• Drive alignment on requirements, ownership, schedules and dependencies.
• Follow open actions across functions and escalate items that put customer or program commitments at risk.
• Make sure engineering, operations and supply-chain activities remain connected rather than being managed as separate workstreams.

Metal Pedestal & Showerhead Design Reviews

• Attend and track all relevant showerhead design reviews.
• Ensure PCD is engaged early and consistently wherever their input, qualification or ownership is required.
• Capture decisions, open issues and actions from design reviews and ensure follow-through across organizations.

Reclaim Program Coordination

• Coordinate supplier, engineering, and supply chain activities required to execute programs.
• Track reclaim cost/quotes, parts availability, supplier activities and outstanding issues.
• Incorporate your projects into the overall project prioritization process rather than manage them as a standalone list.

Forecast & Demand Alignment

• Act as the bridge between PG and supply chain for hardware demand.
• Identify customer or program demand that is not adequately represented in the normal forecast.
• Consolidate upcoming demand from projects, customer escalations, evaluations, upgrades and reclaim activities.
• Drive visibility of forecast gaps early enough for PCD and SCM to develop a sourcing/build response.
• Escalate material availability or supplier risks that could impact customer commitments.

• Bachelor's degree with 5+ years of experience; or Master's degree with 3+ years' experience; or a PhD with no previous professional experience; or equivalent experience.
• Strong technical program/project management background in semiconductor equipment or complex hardware.
• Comfortable working across engineering, product management, operations, supply chain and external suppliers.
• Working knowledge of hardware development, design reviews, BOM/part management and supply-chain processes.
• Able to take a large collection of disconnected projects and turn it into a prioritized, executable portfolio.
• Strong follow-through and ability to drive actions across organizations without direct authority.
• Experience with pedestal, showerhead, deposition hardware, supplier management, reclaim/cleaning or similar hardware programs is preferred.

We believe it is important for every person to feel valued, included, and empowered to achieve their full potential. By bringing unique individuals and viewpoints together, we achieve extraordinary results.
