Overview

We’re looking for a highly experienced and strategically driven

Director – Technical Program Management

.

This is a senior leadership role for someone who can define execution strategy, lead complex technology initiatives, and ensure seamless delivery across multiple cross-functional teams in a fast-paced, innovation-driven environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Define and lead the overall execution strategy for large-scale, multi-stream technical programs, ensuring alignment with organizational and product priorities.
  • Oversee end-to-end delivery of critical initiatives across engineering, product, and design functions, ensuring consistent execution and high-quality outcomes.
  • Drive cross-functional and executive-level alignment, acting as the key coordination point between technical teams and business stakeholders.
  • Provide senior technical oversight by evaluating system designs, identifying risks early, and guiding teams toward effective and scalable solutions.
  • Build and scale program management frameworks, governance models, and delivery standards to support organizational growth and operational efficiency.
  • Partner with product and engineering leadership to strengthen discovery, planning, and backlog readiness for successful execution.

What We’re Looking For

  • 10+ years of experience in Technical Program Management, Program Management, or related senior leadership roles.
  • Proven experience leading large-scale, complex technology programs in fast-moving, innovation-focused environments.
  • Strong technical foundation (engineering background highly preferred) with the ability to engage in architectural and AI/technical discussions.
  • Experience operating at senior leadership level and influencing cross-functional stakeholders.
  • Strong ability to manage ambiguity, scale processes, and lead high-performing teams.
  • Solid understanding of modern AI systems and technical delivery frameworks.

Why This Role Stands Out

This is a high-impact leadership opportunity to shape how complex technology programs are executed at scale, influence strategic delivery, and build strong program governance in a dynamic environment.

How To Apply

If you are a senior program leader with strong technical depth and a passion for driving complex execution, we’d like to hear from you.
