About the Opportunity

We are looking for a Director of Technical Program Management to lead execution across a multi-product engineering organization. This role is highly visible and will partner closely with executive leadership to scale delivery, improve transparency, and drive operational excellence across four product lines: Desktop, Online, Mobile, and AI Platform.

You will sit at the center of a 70+ person engineering org, bringing structure, insight, and rigor to how programs are delivered.

  • Partner cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Design, Data, and Infrastructure leaders
  • Build and maintain executive dashboards and reporting across key engineering metrics including velocity, cycle time, deployment frequency, MTTR, and sprint predictability
  • Deliver clear, data-driven insights to executive leadership on program health, delivery progress, and productivity trends
  • Champion Agile, Scrum, CI/CD, and DevOps best practices across the organization
  • Translate complex technical initiatives into clear, compelling narratives for the CTO, CEO, and Board
  • Foster a culture of accountability, urgency, and data-driven decision-making
  • Mentor and develop TPM talent while strengthening collaboration across teams

What We Are Looking For

  • 10+ years in Technical Program Management with 3 to 5 years leading enterprise-scale programs across 50+ engineers
  • Experience working in B2B SaaS environments, ideally within high-growth or top-tier tech companies
  • Deep expertise with Jira administration, workflow design, and scaling program tooling
  • Strong experience with Confluence, Slack, GitHub or GitLab, and modern development ecosystems
  • Proven ability to build executive dashboards using tools like Tableau, Looker, or Power BI
  • Strong command of engineering metrics, program analytics, and data visualization
  • Solid technical foundation across Agile, CI/CD, DevOps, cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), and release management
  • Exceptional executive communication skills with the ability to influence at the senior leadership level
  • Track record of leading cross-functional initiatives without direct authority
  • Demonstrated bias for action and ability to thrive in fast-paced, high-impact environments

Nice to Have

  • Experience building or scaling TPM functions
  • Experience with OKRs, DORA metrics, or engineering performance frameworks
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related technical field
