Technical Program Manager

About This Role

This high-visibility role drives the company's most complex, multi-team technical initiatives within the Product organization. The Technical Program Manager transforms product ideas into coordinated plans that engineering, data, product, and operations teams can execute, overseeing them from kickoff through launch and post-performance review. The role requires technical fluency to understand the platform's components, including application software, data platform, and data science/modeling, to identify dependencies and prevent team blockages.

Responsibilities

• Own large, cross-team technical programs from initial planning through rollout and post-launch review of results
• Act as the go-to owner for each program, keeping product, engineering, data, and operations leaders aligned on scope, timing, and status
• Partner with Operations to coordinate release planning and backlog refinement for clean launches with product-using teams
• Surface risks and dependencies early and implement practical mitigation plans
• Map system connections across software, data infrastructure, and data science to ground sequencing decisions in real architecture
• Use delivery data and metrics to guide decisions, report progress, and flag issues before they cause delays
• Improve program execution by refining planning, tracking, and reporting practices as the organization scales
• Travel occasionally (up to roughly 10%) for team planning sessions and company events

Requirements

• 7+ years of program management leading complex, cross-functional technical initiatives
• 3+ years in healthcare technology or digital health
• Track record of bringing new products to market alongside product and engineering teams
• Solid grounding in program management best practices and Agile delivery
• Advanced, day-to-day use of Jira for planning, tracking, and reporting
• Comfortable using data and analytics to drive decisions and expose risk
• Able to read technical architecture and reason about cross-system dependencies
• Excellent written and verbal communication; confident presenting to leadership
• Able to travel up to approximately 10%
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience

Nice to have:

• Leading technical programs in another regulated industry (finance, insurance, government, etc.)
• Programs that span data platforms, analytics, or machine learning in addition to application software
• Experience in a high-growth startup or scale-up environment
• Release management experience coordinating launches with operations or clinical teams
