Partner with engineering, product, and business leaders to define scope, success criteria, and program roadmaps across multiple workstreams.
-
Establish and drive program governance, including status reporting, dependency and risk tracking, and stakeholder communication.
-
Proactively identify and resolve cross-team dependencies, ensuring accountability, alignment, and efficient decision-making across business units.
-
Translate complex technical concepts and trade-offs into clear business impacts and recommendations for non-technical stakeholders.
-
Anticipate, surface, and mitigate risks, escalating when needed while driving solutions independently and decisively.
-
Define, track, and communicate key program metrics to measure progress, velocity, quality, and outcomes.
-
Provide clear, executive-ready communication and reporting to senior and C-level stakeholders.
-
Roll up your sleeves when necessary—diving into technical details, clarifying requirements, and removing blockers to maintain momentum.
What You Will Need

8+ years of experience in program or project management, including at least 4 years in a dedicated Technical Program Manager role.

-
Proven track record delivering large, cross-functional initiatives in fast-paced, dynamic environments.
