What you need

  • 7+ years of experience in technical program management, engineering program management, or a related role within software, infrastructure, or platform organizations.
  • Proven track record leading large, ambiguous, multi-team programs with significant cross-functional dependencies and measurable business or platform impact.
  • Strong technical fluency and the ability to engage credibly with engineering leaders and teams on architecture, trade offs, delivery risks, and execution plans.
  • Demonstrated strength in structuring programs, driving decision-making, and solving complex problems in fast-paced, evolving environments.
  • Experience building alignment across senior stakeholders and improving communication, governance, and execution across interdependent teams.
  • Outcome-Oriented Focus: Demonstrated bias for action and root-cause problem solving over administrative tracking; experience moving beyond Jira hygiene to actively unblocking delivery.

Nice to have

  • 15+ years of experience in the technology industry.
  • Background as a Software Engineer, Systems/Delivery Architect, or Technical Product Manager prior to transitioning into TPM leadership.
  • Experience driving AI-assisted developer workflow tooling or agentic automation in developer environments.

What you get

  • Health, pharmacy, optical and dental care benefits
  • Paid time off
  • Sick time off
  • Short term and long term disability coverage
  • Life insurance
  • 401k contribution

Worth weighing

  • No specific mention of remote work flexibility beyond hybrid.
  • Compensation range provided, but varies based on location and other factors.
  • Role emphasizes strategic leadership rather than day-to-day management, which may appeal to some candidates but not others.
