From chip-to-chip optical interconnects to scalable photonic engines, Lumilens is unlocking a new era of computing faster, cooler, and massively more efficient.\nWe’re a well-funded startup backed by Mayfield and led by veterans who’ve built and scaled some of the most transformative technologies in the industry. This isn’t incremental innovation's a ground-floor opportunity to rethink the optical layer from the silicon up. You’ll work alongside a team of world-class engineers solving some of the hardest challenges in optics, systems, and scale. Every line of code, every design decision, every breakthrough you help deliver will shape the infrastructure of tomorrow.\nIf you're looking for mission, momentum, and the chance to make an outsized impact jump on the rocket ship. We’re just getting started.\nAbout the Role\nLumilens is seeking a Senior Technical Program Manager to lead complex cross-functional programs spanning silicon, optical systems, photonics integration, advanced packaging, bring-up, validation, and system-level delivery. This is a high-visibility leadership role responsible for driving high-quality silicon and optical products from development through validation and readiness on aggressive timelines in a fast-paced, innovative environment.\nKey Responsibilities\nOrganize end-to-end planning, scheduling, and execution for Lumilens’ silicon, optical, photonics integration, advanced packaging, bring-up, validation, and systems development programs.\n\nPartner with engineering leads and cross-functional teams to accurately estimate, prioritize, and sequence work while balancing quality, scope, and schedule.\n\nCreate, maintain, and execute detailed project plans covering scope, schedule, budget, and resources, ensuring alignment with business objectives and key stakeholders.\n\nProactively manage schedules, risks, issues, and quality; escalate effectively and provide clear visibility to leadership.\n\nFacilitate productive recurring meetings, technical reviews, and operational checkpoints throughout the project lifecycle.\n\nDeliver concise, targeted communications to management and stakeholders on project status, key milestones, risks, and decisions.\n\nProvide hands-on program management, cross-functional coordination, and internal/external stakeholder communications to achieve outstanding results.\n\nOwn major program milestones across silicon and optical development, including tapeouts, optical module or subsystem bring-up, validation activities, and critical cross-functional deliverables in a dynamic, high-velocity setting.\n\nEngage with vendors, customers, and external partners on program-related activities as required.\n\nQualifications\n10+ years of experience leading complex hardware programs across silicon, optical systems, photonics, bring-up, validation, and product qualification.\n\nBachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field.\n\nSolid understanding of complex hardware development cycles, including silicon tapeout processes, optical subsystem development, integration planning, and cross-functional execution.\n\nExperience with product bring-up, validation, and qualification flows across silicon and optical products; EVT/DVT and system integration experience is a plus.\n\nPrior background in semiconductors (chip design, physical design, or test engineering preferred).\n\nAbility to influence without authority and drive results in a matrixed, cross-functional environment.\n\nStrong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a dynamic, fast-paced setting.\n\nProficiency with program management tools such as MS Project, Jira, Asana, Smartsheet, or equivalent.\n\nExcellent written and verbal communication skills, including technical presentations.\n\nPreferred Qualifications\nStrong knowledge of silicon photonics, optical communications, photonic integrated circuits (PICs), laser technologies, co-packaged optics, heterogeneous integration, and broader optical system architectures.\n\nExperience supporting the development, qualification, and manufacturing ramp of 800G and 1.6T optical transceivers, optical engines, or high-speed interconnect solutions, including familiarity with optical networking architectures and AI infrastructure deployments.\n\nExperience with advanced packaging technologies, including silicon photonics packaging, chiplets, co-packaged optics, and 2.5D/3D integration.\n\nUnderstanding of optical system bring-up, validation, reliability testing, and production qualification processes.\n\nExperience working with optical component suppliers, OSATs, contract manufacturers, and ecosystem partners throughout the product lifecycle.\n\nFamiliarity with yield improvement, manufacturing readiness, supply chain scaling, and high-volume production of optical products.\n\nExperience establishing program management processes and operating frameworks within startup or high-growth technology environments.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5065,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":10,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Servers & Data Center Hardware","Optical Communications","Optics & Photonic Components"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-10T18:47:58Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":36,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":1,"p_active":0.812,"p_room":0.44,"age_days":137,"expected_fill_days":118,"reasons":["conf:1","velocity","win:tail","crowd:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-22T06:10:10Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/lumilens-technical-program-manager","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/lumilens-technical-program-manager.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-22T17:19:57Z","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":18249,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-23T00:00:00Z"}},"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":678172},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=678172"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Flumilens-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%2Flumilens-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%2Flumilens-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/lumilens-technical-program-manager\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Flumilens-technical-program-manager"}]}
