This role carries direct responsibility for system-level program and project management, including ownership of the calibration test strategy and design trade-off decisions. In this role, your responsibilities will include:
- Own the program roadmap and execution plan for antenna calibration system development, including defining milestones, managing dependencies, and driving delivery across multiple engineering teams
- Define, document, and manage system-level requirements and interface specifications between hardware, firmware, and software components
- Drive the calibration test strategy, including test architecture, measurement methodology, and pass/fail criteria, in partnership with RF and systems engineering teams
- Coordinate integrated hardware/software development efforts, ensuring alignment across mechanical, electrical, RF, and software disciplines
- Identify and manage technical risks and trade-offs, escalating decisions to leadership with clear data and recommendations
- Establish and maintain software release processes, including CI/CD pipeline management, build and deployment schedules, version control practices, and cross-team coordination mechanisms
