What the job involves
- Harbinger Motors is looking for a Technical Program Manager (TPM) within Harbinger’s Program Management Office (PMO) to join a highly innovative team that is building brand new, technically superior, electric stripped chassis for the Medium Duty truck market
- We are seeking a high performing, experienced, and energetic TPM to lead the coordination, management, and status communication of their respective Engineering Department to the rest of the Program Management Team
- The position will report to the Director of Engineering Program Management
- Cross functionally work with Engineering and Supply Chain teams to ensure parts are released, ordered and arrive on time. Wherever possible, the TPM should identify impending risks, to avoid a possible part shortage. If to no avail, a component does arrive late, the TPM should work with the team to develop and implement a contingency plan
- TPM works closely with the Engineers to ensure robust engineering processes are implored. This includes tracking tasks such as Design Reviews, DFMEA, CAE, Fastener Calculations, and DVPRs
- TPM works closely with internal and external stakeholders/suppliers, attending weekly Product Development Team (PDT) meetings to keep apprised of possible issues or timing risks
- When concerns arise, the TPM should ensure a Jira ticket is generated and should follow through to ensure a proper Root Cause Analysis process is conducted. TPMs should be knowledgeable and proactive in implementing a short term and permanent corrective action
- When changes occur, the TPM should ensure the DRE works efficiently and thoroughly through the change control process. TPM should work with materials planning and manufacturing to manage effectivity of new revisions
Our take
Traditionally, commercial fleets and medium-duty vehicle operators have faced barriers such as high acquisition costs and limited options in the electric vehicle market. Harbinger aims to disrupt this landscape by developing an electric stripped chassis that specifically caters to the performance, durability, and lifespan expectations of Class 4 to Class 6 vehicles.
The company's focus on delivering an EV platform priced with zero acquisition premium addresses a key obstacle in the widespread adoption of EVs within the commercial sector. With impressive funding to its name, Harbinger Motors is ready to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of electric mobility for commercial and specialty vehicles; focussing on enhancing safety, driver experience, and overall vehicle operation.

- Protecting our communities: Medium-duty vehicles drive straight to our doorsteps every day, carrying with them harmful noise and pollution. By decarbonizing this important segment of the transportation industry, we can deliver solutions that place human health and wellness at the center of the equation
