About the role

You’ll join the R&D organization as part of the Technical Program Management function, a small, cross-functional team that leads high-impact programs spanning multiple product stages and departments.

• Partner with engineering leaders and other key stakeholders to align on goals, timelines, and delivery milestones for cross functional initiatives
• Own end-to-end program planning and execution, from initial discovery and scoping through delivery, measurement, and retrospectives
• Identify risks and blockers early, coordinate resolution across teams, and escalate when needed to maintain momentum
• Facilitate working group meetings and async discussions to support decision-making, surface tradeoffs, and keep programs on track

What you need

• 3–6 years in consulting & strategy
• Git
• Project management
• Agile
• CI/CD
• Any graduate
