This role ensures that products are launched on time, within cost, and at target quality, by orchestrating cross-functional teams across engineering, operations, supply chain, and quality.\nThe NPI PM acts as the single point of accountability for program execution and serves as the bridge between product development and manufacturing.\nKey Responsibilities :\n1. Program Leadership & Execution\nLead NPI programs from concept to volume production\nDefine program scope, objectives, milestones, and deliverables\nBuild and maintain integrated program plans (WBS, schedules, roadmap)\nDrive execution to meet cost, schedule, quality, and performance targets\nEnsure transition from development to manufacturing readiness\n2. Cross-Functional Coordination\nLead and align global cross-functional teams:Silicon / HW / SW engineering\nProduct management\nManufacturing & test\nSupply chain & procurement\nQuality & reliability\n\nAct as the central communication hub across stakeholders and executives\n3. NPI Process & Industrialization\nDrive NPI lifecycle phases:Concept & feasibility\nDesign & development\nPrototyping / validation (EVT/DVT/PVT)\nManufacturing ramp\n\nDrive Design for Excellence to ensure first-time-right product industrialization, optimizing manufacturability, testability, cost, and supply chain readiness\nManage product build plans, pilot runs, and validation activities\n4. Manufacturing & Supply Chain Readiness\nEnsure:Component readiness and supplier alignment\nManufacturing capacity and tooling readiness\nTest and production flows are qualified\n\nCoordinate ramp planning and global factory readiness\nOptimize cost, yield, and cycle time during ramp-up\n5. Risk & Issue Management\nIdentify, track, and mitigate program risks\nLead resolution of cross-functional issues (technical, supply, schedule)\nEscalate critical issues and drive recovery plans\n6. Financial & Resource Management\nManage program budget, cost tracking, and forecasting\nDrive cost optimization and margin targets\nAllocate and manage resources across multiple workstreams\n7. Governance & Reporting\nLead program governance (phase reviews, gate reviews, exec updates)\nProvide clear, data-driven status reporting to leadership\nEnsure compliance with internal processes and product lifecycle standards\nKey Deliverables (Typical NPI Outputs)\nProgram charter, roadmap, and WBS\nIntegrated schedule (milestones, critical path)\nProduct build plans and validation reports\nManufacturing readiness and ramp plans\nRisk registers and mitigation plans\nCost model / BOM evolution\nPost-launch performance metrics (yield, quality, cost)\nFormal Lessons Learned report at key milestones\nRequired Qualifications\nBachelor’s or Master’s degree in Engineering, Supply Chain, Semiconductor, SW or related \n5-10+ years in program/project management in high-tech or manufacturing environment \nProven experience in NPI / product development lifecycle management \nStrong understanding of: Manufacturing processes and supply chain \nProduct development lifecycle (HW/SW systems) \nSemiconductor or electronics industry (preferred)\n\nCore Skills\nProgram leadership & execution excellence\nStrong cross-functional influence (matrix organization)\nAdvanced planning & scheduling (WBS, critical path)\nRisk management & problem-solving\nFinancial acumen (cost, budget, ROI)\nExcellent communication with technical and executive stakeholders\nAbility to thrive in ambiguity and fast-paced environments\nSuccess Metrics (KPIs)\nOn-time product launch (milestone adherence)\nCost vs. target / margin achievement\nProduct quality (yield, reliability)\nProduction ramp efficiency\nCustomer satisfaction / business impact\nTypical Reporting Line\nReports to: Director / Sr Director Program Management\nInterfaces extensively with:Engineering leadership\nOperations / manufacturing\nSupply chain\nBusiness units\nFinance\n\nMore information about NXP in the United States...\nNXP is an Equal Opportunity/AffirmativeAction Employer regardless of age, color, national origin, race, religion, creed, gender, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity and/or expression, marital status, status as a disabled veteran and/or veteran of the Vietnam Era or any other characteristic protected by federal, state or local law.
