Personified Tech

We’re Personified: a managed IT + cybersecurity services provider for campaigns, non-profits, and mission-aligned organizations. Our mission is to lead technology and security programs for our clients, enabling them to focus on their mission-critical work.

We act as an extension of our client teams — we handle all the responsibilities a traditional internal IT team would. We’re in our clients’ Slacks, we’re on a first-name basis with them (and their pets), we’re new hires’ first point of contact, and we’re the first stop for tech and cybersecurity issues. We aim to build trust, and we leverage this to keep the bad actors out.

We are looking for top talent as we continue to scale our team.

As a Senior Technical Programs Manager, you will serve as a trusted partner and main point of contact for mission-driven clients, ensuring they receive responsive, high-quality IT and cybersecurity support. Clients will look to you for clear communication and reliable solutions, and you’ll build trust through proactive engagement, patience, and follow-through.

As part of this client-facing work, you will use your project management expertise to lead complex initiatives from scoping through execution. You’ll help define requirements and own project timelines in a fast-paced environment, coordinating across internal and external teams to ensure solutions are clearly documented and delivered on time and in scope.

You will work closely with the VP of Technical Programs and play a key role in client onboarding, ongoing account management, project scoping, internal process improvements, and team coordination.

If you have deep experience managing client relationships and excel at guiding complex projects while maintaining a spirit of collaboration and trust, we’d love to hear from you. We’re especially excited to meet candidates who understand the unique needs of mission-driven organizations and are motivated by the opportunity to support their work.
