About this opportunity:

We are looking for a Silicon India Operations Manager to serve as the hub of execution—driving operational discipline, cross-functional coordination, and reliable delivery while helping leaders achieve business objectives. Our Silicon R&D center in Bangalore was established last year, and with the team growing rapidly, this role offers a unique opportunity to help shape site operations.

Working culture: Ericsson has a collaborative and inclusive culture that values diversity and innovation. Immerse yourself in an environment that champions innovation and critical thinking.

Work-Life Balance: We are committed to supporting the well-being of our team members by fostering a balanced work-life environment that empowers you to thrive professionally without compromising your personal life.

An international work environment: As a global organization, Ericsson offers abundant opportunities for professional growth and career development.

• Lead the site’s operational cadence, including reviews, dashboards, and execution tracking, to ensure delivery against key priorities.
• Own capability and competence management for the site.
• Coordinate execution across HR, Engineering, Facilities, Finance, and external partners to ensure smooth site operations.
• Identify cross-functional gaps, risks, and blockers, and drive timely resolution with accountable leaders.
• Strengthen and maintain governance processes, documentation, and compliance with corporate policies.
• Partner with Finance on budgets, expenses, and forecasts to improve visibility and spending discipline.
• Lead Silicon India initiatives, such as Return to Office and employee engagement, that strengthen collaboration and culture.
• Align Bangalore teams with global stakeholders and drive accountability for decisions and actions.
• Manage local external workforce suppliers.
• Support communications by preparing presentations, newsletters, website content, and related materials.
• While many responsibilities can be planned, the role also requires flexibility to handle ad hoc needs. Above all, you will support R&D line management in ramping up the new site, including taking on related tasks as needed.

• 8+ years of experience in operations and/or program management.
• Demonstrated ability to drive execution across cross-functional teams without direct authority, supported by strong stakeholder management and influencing skills.
• Experience working in global organizations with diverse stakeholders.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with a positive, can-do attitude.
• Strong organizational, planning, and prioritization skills, with the ability to balance structured responsibilities and ad hoc demands.
• A strong sense of ownership, responsibility, and initiative.
• Working knowledge of Indian compliance requirements, labor laws, and business operations.
• Independent, self-motivated, and well organized, with strong analytical skills and close attention to detail.
• Ability to work effectively in ambiguity and bring clarity to complex situations.
• Advanced proficiency in Microsoft 365; familiarity with AI tools and Power BI is a plus.
• Fluent in written and spoken English.
• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent qualification.
• Experience in ASIC, telecom, or technology engineering site operations is an advantage.
