- Facilitate cross-team coordination and decision-making to keep programs on track — running standups, program syncs, and steering reviews
- Translate technical program status into crisp stakeholder updates for product leadership and senior engineering audiences
- Identify and escalate delivery risks early; lead focused retrospectives to drive continuous process improvement
- Coordinate launch readiness activities across engineering, QA, documentation, support, and go-to-market teams
- Support data-driven prioritization by maintaining program metrics and surfacing trade-off analysis to product and engineering leadership
- Apply foundational AI skills to explore and implement ways AI can enhance productivity, innovation, and impact across our workforce
Requirements
- 6+ years of technical program management experience, including at least 3 years in enterprise software, cloud infrastructure, or data analytics
- Demonstrated experience managing multi-team delivery programs involving engineering teams of 20 or more
- Strong working knowledge of cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP), data systems, or SaaS product delivery cycles
- Hands-on experience with Agile delivery methodologies, sprint planning, and program-level tracking tools
- Excellent communication and facilitation skills — able to run effective meetings, surface issues clearly, and write crisp status reports
- Foundational AI skills and the ability to understand how AI can be applied to improve outcomes in your area of expertise
Nice to have:
- Familiarity with data warehousing, SQL analytics, or cloud data infrastructure concepts
- Experience coordinating programs that span US and international engineering teams (India experience a plus)
- Proficiency with Jira, Confluence, Smartsheet, or similar delivery management tools
- Background in enterprise SaaS, B2B analytics, or open-source data ecosystem delivery preferred
- Strong organizational skills and attention to detail — you keep complex programs tidy and stakeholders informed
- Ability to build trust quickly with engineers and product managers; seen as a reliable execution partner rather than a process overhead
