Technical Program Manager, Health & Wellness
Summary:
Meta's XR Technology team is building the next generation of wearable devices that bring health and wellness capabilities directly to users. We develop and ship health sensing technologies — from biometric monitoring to wellness insights — that help people understand and improve their well-being through products they wear every day.As a Technical Program Manager for Health & Wellness, you will drive end-to-end program execution across a portfolio of health features shipping on Meta's wearable platforms. You will own the execution strategy for programs spanning algorithm development, sensor integration, clinical validation, and product delivery — coordinating across hardware, software, research, regulatory, and product teams to hit hardware-gated milestones. You will be responsible for schedule management, cross-team dependency resolution, risk mitigation, and ensuring launch readiness across multiple simultaneous programs.We look for Technical Program Managers who have a demonstrated technical foundation in health/biomedical sensing or consumer hardware, have experience defining and driving execution strategies for complex programs, experienced in building cross-functional alignment across engineering, product, and partner teams, and experienced in establishing the appropriate level of process to ensure smooth and predictable program execution in a fast-paced, hardware-constrained environment.
