Director – Technical Program Management
.
This is a senior leadership role for someone who can define execution strategy, lead complex technology initiatives, and ensure seamless delivery across multiple cross-functional teams in a fast-paced, innovation-driven environment.
Key Responsibilities
- Define and lead the overall execution strategy for large-scale, multi-stream technical programs, ensuring alignment with organizational and product priorities.
- Oversee end-to-end delivery of critical initiatives across engineering, product, and design functions, ensuring consistent execution and high-quality outcomes.
- Drive cross-functional and executive-level alignment, acting as the key coordination point between technical teams and business stakeholders.
- Provide senior technical oversight by evaluating system designs, identifying risks early, and guiding teams toward effective and scalable solutions.
- Build and scale program management frameworks, governance models, and delivery standards to support organizational growth and operational efficiency.
- Partner with product and engineering leadership to strengthen discovery, planning, and backlog readiness for successful execution.
What We’re Looking For
- 10+ years of experience in Technical Program Management, Program Management, or related senior leadership roles.
- Proven experience leading large-scale, complex technology programs in fast-moving, innovation-focused environments.
- Strong technical foundation (engineering background highly preferred) with the ability to engage in architectural and AI/technical discussions.
- Experience operating at senior leadership level and influencing cross-functional stakeholders.
- Strong ability to manage ambiguity, scale processes, and lead high-performing teams.
- Solid understanding of modern AI systems and technical delivery frameworks.
Why This Role Stands Out
This is a high-impact leadership opportunity to shape how complex technology programs are executed at scale, influence strategic delivery, and build strong program governance in a dynamic environment.
How To Apply
If you are a senior program leader with strong technical depth and a passion for driving complex execution, we’d like to hear from you.
