A technical project manager oversees the development of a new piece of technology or computer program. Their job duties are to create a schedule for the technical team to follow, identify important goals during the project, and ensure that a project is delivered on-time. They must also maintain careful track of the team’s progress and address any issues that may crop up during the development cycle. A technical project manager often makes reports to stakeholders and other interested parties about the timetable of the project and inform them of any issues.
| Aspect | Technical Project Manager | Software Developer |
|---|---|---|
| Credentials | Project management certifications (e.g., PMP), technical knowledge | Computer science degree, coding certifications |
| Work Environment | Cross-functional teams, project planning, stakeholder communication | Coding, software design, implementation |
| Industry Usage | IT, software development, tech companies | Software companies, tech startups, IT departments |
The main difference is that a Technical Project Manager oversees project execution, coordinating teams and managing timelines, while a Software Developer focuses on writing and testing code. Both roles require technical knowledge, but their responsibilities and daily tasks differ significantly.

Description
As a Technical Project Lead (TPL) at Seek Thermal, you will own the technical critical path of one or more new-product programs-the chain of design decisions, integrations, and verifications that determines whether the product works and ships. You will be accountable for design outputs, design reviews, and technical trade-offs-working alongside program management while coordinating engineering across electrical, mechanical, software/firmware, optics, and systems to bring LWIR thermal imaging products from concept through production. The Technical Project Lead will report directly to the SVP of Engineering.
This is not a remote Position
RESPONSIBILITIES:
The Technical Project Lead will own the technical critical path of new product development (NPD) programs through phase gates (concept through DV, PV, and production release)-know at all times which technical task gates the program, and keep the multidisciplinary team focused on it.
Ensure design outputs and design-review materials are complete and defensible at every gate, and provide the technical readiness signal for gate sign-off.
Make and document technical trade-offs (e.g., image quality, runtime, cost, architecture), with cross-functional approval for scope and design changes.
Identify technical risks early, assess their critical-path impact, and drive mitigation of technical exposure across the program.
Assign engineering tasks, drive technical status at program meetings in step with program management, and own design documentation and approvals per Seek's design-control process.
Drive root-cause and corrective action (8D) when sensor, manufacturing, or integration failures threaten a milestone
Ensure PRD requirements are testable and verification is defined before design gates; pull hardware/software integration risks off the critical path early.
Provide technical deliverables (SOWs, specifications) for supplier engagements and represent engineering with customers, change control boards, and leadership.
SKILLS KNOWLEDGE AND ABILITIES:
The Technical Project Lead should possess hands-on embedded systems depth (e.g., RTOS debugging, multicore SoC/MPSoC platforms, I2C/SPI, MIPI CSI, hardware/software co-design) with independent technical judgment.
Experience developing products under structured quality and development processes (e.g., functional safety, ASPICE, ISO 9001, or similar) within formal design controls.
Fluency with phase-gate development, PRD/requirements management, DV/PV verification, 8D, RASIC, and planning tools (Jira, SmartSheets).
Proven technical coordinator of distributed cross-functional teams and a clear communicator-holds a technical position, escalates cleanly, and commits once decided.
Preferred: thermal/IR imaging (FPA/ROIC, NUC/AGC, LWIR optics), automotive qualification, semiconductor packaging/yield analysis, Agile/Scrum leadership.
Requirements
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Software Engineering, Mechatronics, Physics, Optical Engineering, or related field.
5+ years of engineering experience, including 2+ years owning the technical critical path of embedded hardware/software programs, with at least one shipped sensing or electro-optical product taken through production.
Must be a U.S. Person (U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident, or protected individual) as required by ITAR/EAR export control regulations.
