- Multi-Project Coordination & Delivery Governance: Govern delivery across concurrent projects using NXP's project management methodology.
- Facilitate sprint planning, backlog grooming, and cross-team ceremonies to keep squads unblocked.
- Run delivery governance — status cadences, milestone tracking, RAID logs, and steering reviews.
- Track program KPIs — predictability, milestone adherence, throughput, and quality.

- Risk & Stakeholder Management: Identify, assess, and mitigate risks and issues across all workstreams.
- Manage stakeholders across the program lifecycle, communicating progress, trade-offs, and decisions.
- Provide regular, executive-ready reports and dashboards to senior management.
- What Success Looks Like (First 6–12 Months): In your first 6–12 months, you'll establish a clear program governance framework, stand up a reliable intake and prioritization process, improve delivery predictability across squads, and give leadership clear visibility into progress, risks, and spend.
- Required Qualifications: Bachelor's/Master's in Engineering, Computer Science, or related field, or an MBA. 8+ years in project/program management, including multiple concurrent projects and teams.
- Proven experience with Agile delivery and sprint planning in a software/data engineering environment.
- Strong track record in delivery governance — status reporting, milestone tracking, and steering forums.
- Hands-on experience with intake coordination and demand management for engineering teams.
- Experience with program financials — budgeting, forecasting, and cost tracking.
- Strong risk management, stakeholder management, and executive communication skills.
- Certified project/program management credential (PMP, Prince2, SAFe etc) is preferred.
Nice to Have
- Experience managing catalog-based intake or a service catalog for engineering demand.
- Experience running a request desk / demand management function.

- Familiarity with Data & AI, Databricks, cloud platforms, or DevOps delivery contexts.
- Working knowledge of tools such as Jira, Confluence, Azure DevOps, or ServiceNow.
- Background in semiconductor, manufacturing, or large-scale enterprise IT environments is preferred.
