Principal Program Manager

Overview

We''re looking for a highly strategic Principal Program Manager (IC4) to join OCI. This role sits at the intersection of customer storytelling, executive communications, and technical program management, helping bring our products and strategy to life through compelling narratives while driving high-impact AI initiatives across the Product Marketing organization.

You''ll partner closely with Product Management, Engineering, Corporate Marketing, and executive leadership to develop customer-facing stories, ghostwrite executive communications, and lead complex cross-functional programs that advance our strategic priorities.
