Silicon Technical Program Manager

Facebook Silicon Program Management team is driving the state of the art forward with breakthrough work in computer vision, machine learning, mixed reality, graphics, displays, sensors, and new ways to map the human body. Our chips will enable AR devices where our real and virtual world will mix and match throughout the day. We believe the only way to achieve our goals is to look at the entire stack, from transistor, through architecture, to firmware, and algorithms. We are looking for professional with silicon/chip development background who can contribute to products from definition through production. This role will also expose you to many cross functional teams and you will get to experience building products for the future. This position will help you leverage your technical skills in a multi-functional leadership role. This is a phenomenal opportunity to engage in cutting edge technologies from the get-go. This role requires you to ensure that our custom silicon designs meet the technical, quality and schedule requirements on complex products. The program management team drives full silicon design cycle from initial concept, through implementation, validation and release to end product. You will utilize your technical know-how and program management skills, to drive program schedules and resolve technical issues that enable on-time quality silicon delivery. You will help focus design teams on meeting schedule and unblocking technical issues. You will drive focused technical sessions to track and follow up on issues.
