About the Role
~1 min readWe're looking for a Technical Program Manager who thrives in complex, fast-moving environments and knows how to bring structure, clarity, and momentum to large-scale technical programs. You'll partner with engineering, product, and business leadership to drive programs that matter - with real accountability and real impact.
This is a hands-on role suited for someone who is equally comfortable in the details and in the boardroom, and who knows how to build trust and alignment across diverse teams.
- Lead complex, cross-functional programs end-to-end from planning and initiation through execution and closure.
- Manage multiple concurrent programs simultaneously, maintaining quality and delivery timelines across all workstreams.
- Define program vision, roadmap, and success metrics that align with broader business strategy.
- Identify and mitigate risks proactively, and step in to stabilize and turn around at-risk programs when needed.
- Serve as the primary point of contact for executive and senior leadership delivering clear, confident updates on status, risks, and decisions.
- Build and maintain strong working relationships across Engineering, Product, QA, DevOps, Finance, and Operations.
- Drive accountability and alignment across stakeholder groups without relying on direct authority.
- Facilitate governance structures, escalation paths, and stakeholder communication rhythms.
- Establish and evolve program management best practices, planning templates, reporting standards and delivery frameworks.
- Own program governance; program increment planning, milestone planning, critical path analysis, dependency mapping, and risk management.
- Support or help stand up PMO functions and contribute to delivery maturity across the organization.
- Use metrics, KPIs, and dashboards to track program health and surface insights for decision-making.
- Mentor and support Project Managers and delivery leads, sharing knowledge and fostering a culture of accountability.
- Serve as a delivery coach across teams, identifying gaps in process maturity and partnering with leads to close them.
- Champion change management and organizational adoption for transformational initiatives.
- 8+ years of program management experience, including at least 3 years leading large-scale, enterprise-level technical programs.
- Proven track record delivering complex programs with high organizational visibility and business impact.
- Background in SaaS product delivery, enterprise platforms, or healthcare technology is a strong plus.
- Able to engage fluently in technical discussions, understanding architecture tradeoffs, infrastructure decisions, and how engineering choices affect delivery timelines.
- Experienced partnering with tech leads and architects to align on release readiness, sequencing, and mitigation strategies.
- Experience managing program budgets, resource allocation, and capacity planning.
- Comfortable navigating ambiguity, competing priorities, and high-stakes decisions under pressure.
- Strong executive communication skills — able to present clearly and confidently to senior leadership.
- Proficient in program governance, dependency mapping, critical path analysis, and risk mitigation.
- Experienced in change management and driving organizational adoption across complex programs.
- Skilled at influencing and driving alignment without direct authority.
- Working knowledge of Agile, Scrum, SAFe, Kanban, and Waterfall — and the judgment to apply the right approach.
- Experience setting up or contributing to PMO functions and delivery best practices.
- Proficient in Jira and Confluence, with working knowledge of enterprise planning tools such as MS Project, Smartsheet or Excel.
- Hands-on familiarity with release management and CI/CD delivery models in technical environments.
- Comfortable building and maintaining executive-facing reporting dashboards.
- PMP or SAFe certification is preferred. Equivalent real-world experience is equally valued.
