Full Job Posting

Responsibilities:

  • Software Release Planning & Execution
  • Own integrated planning and execution for complex software releases spanning multiple products, platforms, and engineering teams.
  • Establish and drive release milestones, critical paths, cross-team commitments, and readiness criteria from development through production.
  • Partner with engineering and technical leaders to translate release scope and technical constraints into executable plans.
  • Dependency, Change & Risk Management
  • Identify and manage cross-product technical dependencies, integration points, risks, and blockers that impact release outcomes.
  • Assess the impact of scope, architecture, technical, and schedule changes and drive appropriate mitigation or recovery plans.
  • Drive resolution of cross-team issues and escalate material risks and trade-offs with clear impact and options.
  • Release Governance & Leadership Visibility
  • Establish objective visibility into release health, milestones, dependencies, risks, scope changes, and key decisions through program dashboards, metrics, and reporting.
  • Lead release and readiness reviews and provide concise, data-driven executive reporting that surfaces program health, critical risks, trade-offs, and decisions needed.
  • Drive accountability for decisions, actions, and cross-team commitments through closure.
  • Program Management Excellence
  • Define and mature scalable software program and release management processes and operating rhythms.
  • Establish consistent practices for planning, milestone management, dependency and risk management, change control, and release readiness.
  • Use execution data, dashboards, metrics, and retrospectives to identify systemic bottlenecks and improve software delivery predictability.

Requirements:

  • 8+ years of experience in Technical Program Management, Engineering Program Management, Software Engineering, or a related technical role, with experience leading complex software programs across multiple teams.
  • Strong understanding of software development and release lifecycles, with the technical acumen to understand system architecture, integration dependencies, and engineering trade-offs.
  • Demonstrated ability to navigate ambiguity, manage complex cross-team dependencies and risks, and drive programs to successful outcomes without direct authority.
  • Demonstrated experience developing program dashboards, metrics, and executive-level reporting that translate complex program information into clear insights, risks, and decisions for leadership.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively with both technical teams and senior leadership.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • Experience with complex software platforms involving multiple products, services, or hardware/software integrations.
  • Familiarity with Agile/SAFe, DevOps, CI/CD, automated testing, and modern software delivery practices.
  • Experience incorporating software security requirements, vulnerabilities, security assessments, or security readiness into software development and release processes.
  • Experience helping establish or mature technical program management or software release management practices.
  • What Success Looks Like:
  • Success in this role means complex software releases are managed as integrated technical programs rather than collections of individual team plans. Cross-product dependencies and risks are identified early, teams have clear milestones and accountability, and leaders have timely, data-driven visibility into release health, readiness, risks, and decisions needed to deliver with greater predictability.
