LeoLabs is seeking a Senior Director, Radar Technical Program Manager to lead integrated technical execution of complex radar, hardware, production, and infrastructure programs. This is a senior technical leadership role responsible for aligning the entire Radar organization around a credible execution plan visible across the enterprise.
The role operates across the Radar organization, spanning radar systems engineering, RF and electromechanical engineering, software and embedded systems, supply chain, manufacturing, EHS, site development, integration, test, operations, and maintenance. You will partner closely with Product, customer-facing Program Management, Finance, and cross-functional teams to translate product objectives and customer commitments into credible engineering plans, identify system-level dependencies, resolve blockers, and own the integrated execution plan from development through operational deployment.
Key responsibilities include leading multidisciplinary radar, hardware, manufacturing, deployment, and operational-readiness programs from definition through completion. You will translate product requirements, technical objectives, customer commitments, and operational needs into program definitions with clear scope, success criteria, major milestones, interfaces, dependencies, and decision points. You will drive execution through ambiguity, evolving requirements, incomplete information, and aggressive schedules while maintaining accountability for overall program outcomes.
You will coordinate execution across Radar Systems, Hardware Engineering, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Global Infrastructure, Radar Operations, Product, and customer-facing Program Management. You will own the integrated technical program baseline and cross-functional commitments for scope, schedule, cost, readiness, and risk. You will establish change control, drive escalation and recovery, and ensure decisions are made by appropriate functional authority.
You will define and lead technical and deployment readiness reviews across the product lifecycle, from requirements and architecture through design release, prototype builds, verification and validation, product readiness, site integration, acceptance, and operational handoff. Initially, you will lead several high-priority initiatives and, as the portfolio grows, build and lead a small team of technically credible program leaders. Success requires technical depth, engineering judgment, systems thinking, practical hardware-development experience, and the ability to engage credibly with senior engineers while driving complex programs to measurable outcomes.
