Role Overview

We're looking for a Senior Technical Program Manager who combines strong technical depth with relentless execution. This is a high-impact, cross-functional role at the center of Blaize's Program Management and Business Operations Office, driving strategic initiatives and building a structured, scalable PMO operating model across product, engineering, sales, GTM and roadmap execution.

This role will serve as a key operational bridge between Product and Sales, ensuring roadmap priorities, customer opportunities and GTM execution stay tightly aligned. You''ll bring curiosity, ownership, and a proactive mindset-someone who gets things done, takes end-to-end accountability, and continuously evolves. You will align priorities, drive cross-functional collaboration, and ensure consistent, high-quality delivery.

Key Responsibilities

• Drive end-to-end program execution with a strong focus on accountability, speed, and outcomes
• Build and scale a structured PMO model, including centralized program tracking, resource visibility, and execution alignment
• Partner cross-functionally across Product, Engineering, Sales, Finance, and GTM to deliver complex, high-impact initiatives
• Lead roadmap execution and GTM portfolio planning, ensuring alignment to business priorities
• Establish operational rigor through tools, cadences, and governance frameworks
• Proactively identify risks, dependencies, and gaps-driving resolution with urgency
• Create clear visibility for leadership and the board through concise reporting on progress, risks, and execution health
• Foster a high-performance culture grounded in ownership, collaboration, and continuous improvement

Qualifications

• 8-10 years of program/project management experience, preferably in technology, hardware, or AI-driven environments
• Strong experience leading complex, cross-functional programs spanning Product, Sales, and Finance
• Proven ability to operate with limited direction in fast-paced, ambiguous environments
• Deep expertise in program management frameworks (Agile, Waterfall, hybrid) and tools (e.g., Jira, Asana, Smartsheet)
• Experience building or evolving PMO structures and driving operational excellence at scale
• Track record of owning initiatives end-to-end and consistently delivering results
• Strong business acumen with the ability to influence senior stakeholders
• Excellent communication, collaboration, and stakeholder management skills
• Open to learning, adaptable, and continuously evolving in a dynamic environment
• PMP, PMI-ACP, or similar certification is a plus

Why Blaize

• Drive execution at the forefront of AI, edge computing, and hardware innovation
• Play a key role in shaping company-wide outcomes at a pivotal growth stage
• Partner closely with a world-class executive team
