NPI Program Manager

Job Purpose:

Navitas Semiconductor (Nasdaq: NVTS) is a next-generation power semiconductor leader driving innovation in gallium nitride (GaN) and high-voltage silicon carbide (SiC) technologies. Our products enable faster, more efficient power delivery across AI data centers, high-performance computing, energy and grid infrastructure, and industrial electrification.

With more than 30 years of combined expertise in wide bandgap technologies, GaNFast™ power ICs integrate GaN power, drive, control, sensing, and protection, delivering faster power delivery, higher system density, and greater efficiency. GeneSiC™ high-voltage SiC devices leverage patented trench-assisted planar technology to provide industry-leading voltage capability, efficiency, and reliability for medium-voltage grid and infrastructure applications.

Navitas Semiconductor is looking for a driven, detail-oriented new graduate to join our NPI Program Management team. This role is specifically focused on New Product Introduction — the structured process of taking a GaN or SiC power product from early development through qualification and commercial launch. As an entry-level NPI Program Manager, you will be mentored by experienced NPI leaders while taking on real ownership of program coordination, milestone tracking, and cross-functional execution from day one.

• Support and progressively own NPI program execution for GaN and SiC power product introductions — coordinating all activities from program kickoff through product qualification, release, and production handoff.
• Own and maintain detailed NPI program schedules, milestone trackers, risk logs, and action item registers across assigned programs; proactively flag schedule risks and drive resolution.
• Execute the Navitas NPI gate review process — preparing gate packages, coordinating review logistics, tracking gate entry/exit criteria, and ensuring timely closure of open actions.
• Coordinate NPI deliverables across all contributing functions — R&D, process engineering, applications, quality, operations, and supply chain — ensuring each team meets their NPI commitments on schedule.
• Track product qualification milestones including design reviews, characterization, reliability testing, and qualification sign-off; escalate delays or gaps to the NPI program lead.
• Support supplier and foundry NPI coordination — monitoring sample delivery schedules, tracking qualification lot status, and documenting supplier action items.
• Build and maintain NPI program status reports and dashboards; prepare regular updates for internal stakeholders and leadership using Microsoft 365 tools including Excel, PowerPoint, Teams, and Planner.
• Apply AI productivity tools such as Microsoft Copilot and Claude to accelerate NPI documentation, status reporting, and cross-functional communication.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of Navitas NPI processes, templates, checklists, and tracking tools.
• Build working knowledge of GaN and SiC device technology, power product design, and semiconductor qualification standards to strengthen NPI program contributions over time.

• BS in Electrical Engineering required; recent graduate
• Prior internship, co-op, or research experience in the semiconductor, power electronics, or hardware product development industry.
• Exposure to NPI, stage-gate, or structured product development processes through coursework, internship, or senior capstone project.
• Foundational knowledge of electrical engineering principles, semiconductor devices, or power electronics through coursework or academic projects.
• Demonstrated ability to coordinate multiple tasks, deadlines, and stakeholders simultaneously — through capstone projects, research, student organizations, or internship experience.
• Strong attention to detail and follow-through; ability to track numerous open action items across teams without losing visibility.
• Proficiency in Microsoft 365 Suite including Excel (pivot tables, data organization, tracking), PowerPoint, Word, Outlook, and Teams.
• Familiarity with task and project management tools such as Microsoft Planner, Asana, Jira, or Smartsheet for tracking NPI milestones and action items.
• Working knowledge of AI productivity tools such as Microsoft Copilot or Claude for documentation, reporting, and research support.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills; ability to summarize complex program status clearly for both technical and non-technical audiences.

• Familiarity with GaN, Silicon Carbide (SiC), or Wide Bandgap (WBG) power semiconductor technologies, device types, or process flows.
• Awareness of semiconductor qualification standards such as JEDEC, AEC-Q100/Q101, or reliability test methods.
• Experience with data analysis or visualization tools such as Excel advanced functions, Power BI, or equivalent for tracking and communicating program data.
• Experience with scheduling tools such as Microsoft Project or Smartsheet for managing complex, multi-dependency task plans.
• Coursework or research in power conversion, electrification (EV, data center, renewable energy), or AI hardware systems.
• Experience leading or coordinating group projects in an academic or professional setting, with demonstrated ownership and accountability.
