The listing
POSITION OVERVIEW
The Technical Program Manager, Lab & Hardware Tracking is the R&D-side point of coordination for DDN's lab consolidation initiative and for hardware build support across engineering programs — keeping consolidation moving without disrupting active R&D work, and making sure engineering has the builds, systems, and lab capacity it needs, when it needs them.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Lab Consolidation Coordination
Coordinate the lab consolidation initiative end to end — sequencing site moves, equipment migration, and decommissioning across teams
Partner with facilities, IT, and hardware engineering on the consolidated lab layout (power, rack space, network) and migration timeline
Track milestones, dependencies, and risks; escalate blockers that threaten program timelines or R&D continuity
R&D Build Support
Serve as the R&D-side point of coordination for hardware build requests, ensuring engineering has the systems, prototypes, and test equipment it needs
Track build status and dependencies, proactively flagging risks to program milestones
Prioritize and sequence competing build and lab requests against program urgency and lab capacity
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
8–12 years of experience in technical program management, hardware program management, or lab/data center operations — including a lab move, consolidation, or facility transition
Demonstrated experience coordinating hardware build schedules and dependencies with engineering, manufacturing, and supply chain teams
Strong cross-functional coordination skills; comfortable running a multi-workstream plan with competing priorities and hard deadlines
Experience tracking physical hardware assets/inventory at scale, including through relocation or reconciliation efforts
Excellent written and verbal communication skills; able to synthesize status for engineering leadership
Bachelor's degree in a technical field or equivalent practical experience
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
Direct experience leading or supporting a lab consolidation, relocation, or data center/facility migration
Background in enterprise storage, networking, servers, or HPC/AI infrastructure hardware
PMP or equivalent program/project management certification
