Principal Technical Program Manager, Supply Chain

About the Role

The Principal Technical Program Manager (TPM) for Supply Chain is responsible for the management of the program information on behalf of the Integrated Supply Chain work package owners. The TPM will support the work package owners with delivering products on schedule and within budget. The TPM will work within the Program Management Office (PMO) to drive the integration and development of the Air Vehicle and monitor overall program progress.

What You'll Do

• Develop, maintain, and communicate the budget, schedule, and product development plans to all stakeholders
• Collaborate with the work package owners to define activities across all supply chain activities: purchasing management, material control, logistics, supplier development, and sales, inventory, and operations planning (SIOP)
• Provide and maintain inputs to the integrated master schedule to enable accurate program metrics and visibility
• Define goals, track deliverables, identify risk, and drive mitigation plans; establish effective tools and dashboards to ensure alignment and accountability across the Supply Chain workflows
• Assess resource requirements and highlight gaps across various stages for all projects
• Coordinate with other TPMs to align priorities, summarizing status, and defining risks, mitigations, and opportunities.
• Manage the project roadmap within the framework of the overall program strategy
• Partner with the Integrated Operations department to organize incoming information and help translate it into a clear, repeatable execution rhythm for the Supply Chain team
• Develop, implement, and continuously monitor key performance indicators across all Supply Chain functions to drive operational visibility, identify performance gaps, and ensure alignment with program cost, schedule, and quality objectives

Who You Are

• Big-Picture Operator: You see how the gears mesh — how one change affects the rest. You think ahead, plan for impact, and help others see the bigger system at play. You understand the relationships between scope, schedule, budget, and outcomes, and use that awareness to connect people across the organization, align priorities, and move the entire effort forward.
• Owner Energy: You take full responsibility for the areas you manage — knowing your numbers, forecasts, and milestones inside and out while keeping it all organized. You use that knowledge with precision to make quick, confident decisions, and to identify risks and opportunities early.
• Proactive: You take initiative, follow through on commitments, and drive projects forward. You anticipate challenges and act to prevent them. When problems show up, you roll up your sleeves, find the root cause, and fix it—without waiting for direction.
• Connector & Communicator: You’re the glue that keeps things moving smoothly between teams. You notice when communication breaks down, when people are out of sync, or when information isn’t flowing — and you fix it. You build trust, align perspectives, and ensure everyone has the clarity they need to deliver their best work.
• Flexible Under Fire: When things shift, you keep perspective, adjust fast, and help the team stay focused on what really matters. You use evidence and data to guide judgment. You spot trends, surface insights, and translate complex information into actionable steps.
