## Description

Meta is building the next generation of AI-powered wearable devices, including smart glasses and other ambient computing products that bring intelligent, context-aware experiences to people throughout their day. The Wearables AI team sits at the intersection of on-device machine learning, sensor fusion, voice and multimodal AI, and consumer hardware - developing the systems that make wearables genuinely intelligent companions. We are seeking a Technical Program Manager to lead portfolio-defining programs across AI model development, wearable software stacks, and cross-functional product delivery. In this role, you will partner with engineering and product leaders to define strategy, drive execution, and bring AI-powered wearable experiences to market at scale., 1. Partner with engineering and product leaders to define and drive the technical strategy and program roadmap for AI capabilities on wearable devices, including on-device inference, multimodal AI, and voice assistant experiences

 2. Establish effective and scalable program structures for portfolio-defining initiatives spanning AI model development, wearable hardware-software integration, and cloud-to-device AI pipelines
 3. Lead end-to-end execution of large-scale, cross-functional programs across AI research, embedded software, hardware, and product teams, managing complex interdependencies and aggressive delivery timelines
 4. Proactively identify, communicate, and mitigate technical and program risks across the wearables AI portfolio, including model performance trade-offs, on-device compute constraints, and privacy considerations
 5. Drive alignment and commitment across organizational boundaries, resolving conflicts between AI platform teams, wearable hardware teams, and product organizations at the director level and above
 6. Translate complex AI and wearable technology concepts into clear, structured communications for executive audiences, producing artifacts that serve as long-term strategic references
 7. Define and track technical metrics and program health indicators that illuminate progress on AI model quality, latency, power efficiency, and feature delivery for wearable products
 8. Anticipate scalability challenges in AI development and deployment workflows for wearables and proactively redesign processes to sustain velocity as the portfolio grows
 9. Represent the TPM function in company-wide forums, build playbooks for AI program management best practices, and contribute to TPM community development through mentorship and hiring
