You will work collaboratively with engineering and business teams to ensure seamless execution of technical programs delivering step changes in our infrastructure, security, and international domains.

What You'll Do

  • Drive execution and delivery of large-scale technical programs spanning multiple engineering teams and business functions.
  • Partner with engineering, product, design, analytics, and cross-functional business stakeholders to define program scope, timelines, and success metrics.
  • Manage technical dependencies, resource allocation, and risk mitigation across complex multi-team initiatives.
  • Establish and maintain clear communication channels, ensuring all stakeholders have visibility into program status, blockers, and key decisions.
  • Develop and maintain comprehensive program roadmaps, milestone tracking, and delivery frameworks that keep teams aligned and accountable.
  • Facilitate technical decision-making processes and drive consensus on architecture, implementation approaches, and technical trade-offs.
  • Identify and resolve cross-team dependencies, resource conflicts, and execution bottlenecks before they impact delivery.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with engineering leadership to ensure technical programs align with broader platform and infrastructure strategy.
  • Identify opportunities to improve execution of the organization as a whole, to increase engineering productivity through tools and process improvements.

What We're Looking For

  • 6+ years of experience in technical program management, managing complex software delivery programs from conception through launch and optimization.
  • Proven track record of successfully delivering large-scale technical initiatives involving multiple engineering teams, platforms, and stakeholders.
  • Strong technical background with ability to understand system architecture, APIs, infrastructure, and technical dependencies.
  • Experience with software development lifecycle, agile methodologies, and modern engineering practices.
  • Exceptional project management skills with experience using tools like Jira, Asana, or similar program management platforms.
  • Outstanding communication and stakeholder management abilities, with experience presenting to both technical and executive audiences.
  • Entrepreneurial spirit: Self-starter who thrives in a fast-paced environment, deals well with ambiguity and focuses on driving measurable impact.

Nice to Have

  • Experience at an operationally-intensive company with complex technical infrastructure.
  • Hands-on engineering or technical background (ability to read code, understand system design).
  • Experience with international expansion, cloud infrastructure, microservices architecture, or distributed systems.
  • Data analysis skills including SQL, data visualization, and metrics-driven decision making.
  • Experience with DevOps practices, CI/CD pipelines, and release management.
  • Time spent at a venture-backed startup during hypergrowth scaling technical teams and infrastructure.
  • PMP, Scrum Master, or other relevant program management certifications.
