What are the responsibilities and job description for the Program Manager Wi-Fi/CPE Connectivity position at Kforce Technology Staffing?
RESPONSIBILITIES:
Kforce has a client that is seeking a Program Manager Wi-Fi/CPE Connectivity in Englewood, CO.
Summary:
This individual will be responsible for driving large-scale technical programs from initial planning and discovery through development, testing, deployment, and delivery. The role will work across numerous engineering teams and workstreams, requiring someone who can bring structure to highly complex initiatives, proactively identify dependencies and risks, and keep teams aligned toward common delivery goals.
The ideal candidate is a self-starter and strong delivery driver who is comfortable operating in a fast-paced engineering environment with evolving priorities. This person must be technically savvy enough to understand complex software, networking, device, and connectivity initiatives while possessing the program leadership skills to coordinate delivery across a large number of teams.
Key Responsibilities:
* Lead complex technical programs and projects across WiFi, connectivity, CPE, software, and engineering organizations
* Own program delivery from inception and requirements through development, testing, deployment, and production delivery
* Create and drive detailed program and project plans involving potentially 20-30 teams and/or workstreams
* Coordinate dependencies across engineering, product, architecture, testing, operations, and other technical teams
* Establish program roadmaps, milestones, schedules, success metrics, and delivery expectations
* Track progress against program plans and proactively identify risks, issues, dependencies, and potential delivery impacts
* Drive issues to resolution and ensure appropriate ownership and accountability across workstreams
* Provide clear, concise program status and delivery reporting to working teams, management, directors, and senior leadership
* Facilitate communication and coordination across multiple projects and technical teams
REQUIREMENTS:
* 5-10 years of Technical Program Management, Program Management, Technical Project Management, or related delivery experience within a technology organization
* Experience with RDK or similar device/software platforms
* Expert-level understanding of the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC), including requirements, development, testing, deployment, and production delivery
* Strong stakeholder management, collaboration, facilitation, and organizational skills
* Strong technical aptitude and ability to understand complex engineering concepts, architectures, and dependencies
* Knowledge of or exposure to routers, modems, Wi-Fi extenders, or other connected-device technologies
* Exposure to streaming telemetry, network reliability, device performance, or connectivity optimization initiatives
* Ability to operate independently and proactively in a fast-paced, constantly evolving engineering environment
* Demonstrated ability to identify opportunities for process and delivery improvements rather than simply maintaining existing processes
This role will support current and emerging initiatives across the WiFi/CPE connectivity portfolio, which may include:
* Wi-Fi optimization
* Next-generation Wi-Fi technologies, including early-stage Wi-Fi 8 initiatives
* Wi-Fi extenders and related connectivity solutions
* Router and modem technology
* CPE software and platform initiatives
* RDK-based platforms and architecture
* Streaming telemetry
* Network and device reliability
* Customer connectivity and network performance
* Technical enablement, architecture, and discovery initiatives
The pay range is the lowest to highest compensation we reasonably in good faith believe we would pay at posting for this role. We may ultimately pay more or less than this range. Employee pay is based on factors like relevant education, qualifications, certifications, experience, skills, seniority, location, performance, union contract and business needs. This range may be modified in the future.
We offer comprehensive benefits including medical/dental/vision insurance, HSA, FSA, 401(k), and life, disability & ADD insurance to eligible employees. Salaried personnel receive paid time off. Hourly employees are not eligible for paid time off unless required by law. Hourly employees on a Service Contract Act project are eligible for paid sick leave.
Note: Pay is not considered compensation until it is earned, vested and determinable. The amount and availability of any compensation remains in Kforce's sole discretion unless and until paid and may be modified in its discretion consistent with the law.
