We are looking for an energetic program architect-someone who thrives in undefined territory, looks beyond static standard operating procedures, and sees the immense potential to create a lasting, broader impact across our global manufacturing footprint and the wider industry.\nIn this role, you will be Apple’s forward scout on complex occupational chemical exposure challenges that may not yet have an established playbook. You are equally energized by deep technical engagement with scientists, toxicologists, and Engineering and Operations teams as you are by the operational and organizational rigor required to bring safer chemical solutions to global scale. If you are passionate about driving bold progress within our supply chain and safeguarding the health of the people who make our products, join us.\nDescription\nAs our Industrial Hygiene Technical Program Manager, you will take ambiguous, high-stakes chemical exposure challenges and convert them into structured, scalable initiatives with clear ownership, milestones, and measurable outcomes. You will drive deep technical discussions with Engineering and Operations teams, toxicologists, supplier leadership, and partner teams to embed industrial hygiene gates directly into new material qualifications, establish global manufacturing VOC standards, and direct phase-out roadmaps for restricted substance non-compliant chemistries.\nCritically, this role is designed to architect programs that scale. Rather than managing routine audits or checking off static compliance lists, you will design the systems, binary operational triggers, and governance frameworks that empower Third-Party Assessors (TPAs) and suppliers to execute at world-class standards. You will bridge technical exposure science and high-volume factory realities, ensuring Apple’s chemical safety leadership continues to set the benchmark across the global manufacturing landscape.\nMinimum Qualifications\nBachelor’s degree in Industrial Hygiene, Occupational Health & Safety (OHS), Chemical Engineering, Environmental Health, or a closely related technical discipline.\n5+ years of direct technical experience in industrial hygiene, occupational chemical exposure assessment, or chemical safety engineering within manufacturing or top-tier technical consulting environments.\nDemonstrated domain expertise in chemical exposure pathways, raw process chemistries (solvents, cleaners, adhesives, inks), and Occupational Exposure Limit (OEL) frameworks.\nProven track record leading complex technical programs or initiatives, with the ability to take undefined technical challenges and turn them into structured, executed roadmaps.\nExperience managing external technical vendors, consulting firms, or Third-Party Assessors (TPAs), including scope definition, budget management, and deliverable accountability.\nStrong written and verbal communication skills; demonstrated ability to bridge deep technical dialogues with scientists and operational reviews with Engineering and Operations teams.\nProfessional fluency in English and Mandarin (spoken and written) to drive technical alignment across global teams and regional supplier manufacturing sites.\nAbility and willingness to travel regionally (25-35%) across APAC manufacturing facilities.\nPreferred Qualifications\nMaster’s degree in Industrial Hygiene, Occupational Health & Safety, Chemical Engineering, or a related technical discipline.\nProfessional credential in the field: Certified Industrial Hygienist (CIH) or Certified Safety Professional (CSP) strongly preferred. (Formal project management certifications like PMP are viewed as a value-add only when supported by a proven, foundational career in industrial hygiene or occupational chemical safety.)\nDirect experience integrating chemical hazard or health-and-safety gates directly into New Product Introduction (NPI) or engineering material qualification processes.\nHands-on familiarity with consumer electronics assembly (FATP) or sub-tier component manufacturing operations.\nExperience architecting corporate chemical policies, such as VOC limits, restricted substances phase-outs, or chemical hazard screening frameworks (e.g., GreenScreen®, EPA Safer Choice).\nSystems thinker who naturally identifies leverage points across complex, multi-tiered global supply chains to drive industry-level change.\nDemonstrated resilience, comfortable making sound technical decisions and driving progress with incomplete information in fast-paced operational environments.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4709,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":true},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":false}]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Operating Systems","Laptops","Smartwatches & Fitness Trackers","Tablets"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-21T06:51:50Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":99,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.993,"p_room":1,"age_days":1,"expected_fill_days":102,"reasons":["conf:1","urgency","velocity","win:early","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-23T05:54:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/apple-industrial-hygiene-technical-program-manager","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/apple-industrial-hygiene-technical-program-manager.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-23T13:55:19Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":20811,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-24T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":12},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=12"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fapple-industrial-hygiene-technical-program-manager"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fapple-industrial-hygiene-technical-program-manager"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fapple-industrial-hygiene-technical-program-manager"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/apple-industrial-hygiene-technical-program-manager\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fapple-industrial-hygiene-technical-program-manager"}]}
