Scope
As the Senior Software Program Manager, you will lead the planning, coordination, and execution of software development programs for Ambiq's AmbiqSuite SDK across current and next-generation ARM Cortex-M based SoCs. You will work closely with software and hardware engineering teams throughout the product lifecycle—from pre-silicon planning through silicon bring-up, production software releases, and long-term maintenance.
Working with software architects, engineering managers, and technical leads, you will develop realistic execution plans, identify dependencies and resource constraints, track progress against milestones, and proactively manage program risks. Success in this role requires strong technical understanding of embedded software development, excellent communication skills, and the ability to translate engineering discussions into executable project plans.
You will collaborate across software, architecture, RTL design, design verification, validation, applications engineering, and product management teams across multiple geographies. You will help define priorities, identify risks, track progress, and provide data-driven insights that enable timely decision-making. You will serve as a technical leader and trusted partner, championing software development best practices, quality metrics, and continuous process improvement to help deliver world-class software solutions to our customers.
