Join us as an R& D Program Manager within the Digital Buildings organization at Schneider Electric. In this role, you will work at the intersection of portfolio strategy and execution, supporting the delivery of product offerings and roadmap initiatives across a complex, multi-stakeholder environment.

In this role, you will support the execution of multiple initiatives within a defined program scope, ensuring alignment between strategic objectives and operational delivery across teams.

What you'll be doing

• Lead the delivery of product offerings and roadmap initiatives related to Intelligent Devices, OEM solutions, and Small & Mid-size Buildings
• Coordinate objectives, priorities, and dependencies across teams such as Product Management, R& D, Industrialization, and other stakeholders
• Establish and maintain governance structures, operating rhythms, and communication practices to support program execution
• Track and report on key delivery metrics, including timelines, quality, flow, and delivery velocity
• Support efficiency improvements across offer creation and lifecycle activities through Agile and SAFe-based practices
• Ensure customer needs and quality considerations are integrated throughout the delivery process
• Contribute to a continuous improvement mindset within a scaled Agile environment
• Manage portfolio planning cycles and maintain program backlogs
• Identify and monitor risks, dependencies, and critical paths, and support informed business decision-making
• Support alignment across teams to meet delivery commitments, without direct people management responsibility

What you'll bring

• A Bachelor's degree in a relevant field, or equivalent professional experience
• Solid experience in project and/or program management (typically around 5+ years) within software, hardware, or mixed technology environments
• Proven ability to coordinate work across cross-functional and multi-site teams, with multiple stakeholders and competing priorities
• Demonstrated experience working in Agile environments (including SAFe or similar scaled frameworks) to support product or initiative delivery
• Strong capability to identify risks, manage change, and support execution across several initiatives in parallel
• A good understanding of business constraints and priorities, with the ability to align delivery activities with portfolio and offer strategy
• Clear, structured written and verbal communication skills in English, enabling effective collaboration with international teams and partners

You might also have

• Experience working specifically in scaled Agile roles such as Program Management, Scaled Scrum Master, or portfolio-level coordination
• Exposure to complex industrial, R& D, or product development environments (e.g., hardware-enabled products, systems, or platforms)
• Experience supporting multiple product launches or long-term roadmaps rather than single, standalone projects
• Familiarity with portfolio planning cycles, backlog management at program level, or PMO-type structures
• Agile or project management certifications (e.g., SAFe, Scrum, PMP or equivalent), considered an asset but not required

We recognize that skills and competencies can be developed through a variety of experiences, both professional and personal. Even if you don't meet every single requirement listed, we still encourage you to apply. Your unique background and perspective could be exactly what we're looking for.
