Technical Program Integration Lead

The Technical Program Integration Lead serves as the focal point for integrated planning and execution within a major program segment, product area, or technical domain

This role bridges technical complexity and program execution by transforming multiple engineering, product, software, hardware, operations, integration, and supplier workstreams into a cohesive, executable, and measurable program plan. Working across technical teams, systems engineering, program management, and program controls organizations, the Senior Technical Program Integration Lead ensures scope, dependencies, risks, readiness criteria, and delivery commitments are accurately represented within the Integrated Master Schedule (IMS) and broader program framework

Unlike a traditional Project Manager or Integrated Program Controls Analysts, this role drives technical planning maturity, cross-functional alignment, and execution discipline while ensuring technical teams operate as a fully integrated part of the overall program

The role is accountable for establishing and maintaining a credible, integrated execution plan, identifying, and proposing workarounds and mitigations for risks and dependencies early, and enabling leadership to make informed decisions based on clear assessments of program readiness and execution health

Success in this position requires strong technical acumen, systems-level thinking, and the ability to influence diverse stakeholders toward a common execution strategy
