• Technical Master Plan Ownership: Partner directly with engineering teams to map out complex technical workflows and help organize the technical strategies required to meet product requirements at Sila’s factories and contract manufacturers. Own the master execution track, translating broad technology milestones into granular, week-by-week execution plans that keep technical paths aligned.
• Data-Driven Decision Facilitation: Act as a key facilitator who drives cross-functional alignment by consolidating technical data into a unified "source of truth," defining key assumptions, mapping out trade-offs, and ensuring leadership is equipped to make critical product design, process engineering, and capital project decisions.
• Risk Management & Resource Resolution: Own the resource reconciliation process to actively manage constraints across overlapping multi-project matrices and resolve daily resource conflicts. Proactively maintain project risk registers and host technical alignment meetings to track engineering progress and align with Program priorities. Dynamically optimize execution plans and work with Program Leadership to adjust schedules in response to technical, timeline, and resource constraints.
• Leadership Communication & Stakeholder Transparency: Clearly communicate technical readiness status, execution risks and critical roadblocks to cross-functional teams and Program Leadership . Own the creation and maintenance of standardized visibility tools, including NPI-related dashboards, weekly metric reporting, and centralized documentation spaces - ensuring technical leaders have the accurate, ground-truth data needed to drive decisions..
• Business Process & Program Management Evolution: Drive the rigorous completion of "Technical Handshakes" and the tactical integration of quality standards (e.g., APQP, ISO compliance) into daily engineering workflows. Ensure that critical documentation, including Product Design Documents (PDDs), Manufacturing Control Plans (MCPs), and FMEAs, is fully finalized before handover to high-volume manufacturing.
Sila is seeking a highly tactical, execution-focused Integration Program Manager to serve as the operational engine within our Integration Department. This role is designed for a high-impact leader who excels at bridging the gap between New Product Introduction, engineering and day-to-day execution tracks. This role is designed for a workflow architect and force multiplier who owns the execution tracks within Integration scope, untangling multi-project constraints to turn Sila’s product program milestones into reality.
In this position, you will help organize the complex technical thinking, resource allocations, and dependencies required for engineers to build technical strategies that successfully deliver on product requirements for products transitioning into scale-up and commercial manufacturing. This role offers an incredible platform to make a tangible business impact by translating technology scale-up roadmaps into flawless execution.
• Cross-Functional Program Orchestration: Exceptional ability to align, partner, and drive execution across diverse teams—including R&D, Process Integration, Product Management, Manufacturing, Operations and Quality—using robust program and project management frameworks.
• Matrix Navigation & Proactive Problem Solving: Highly proactive problem solver adept at identifying resource or schedule constraints early, balancing competing multi-project demands, and cleanly navigating complex, matrixed organizational environments.
• Technical Fluency & Strategic Communication: Ability to "speak engineer" to grasp technical dependencies and risks across early-stage material development and scaling phases, paired with the capability to distill complex data into clear, actionable summaries for executive decision-making.
