We are looking for a Senior Technical Program Manager with a strong technical engineering background and proven experience leading complex technology programs from inception to delivery.
The ideal candidate will have started their career in a hands-on technical role such as Software Engineering, QA Engineering, Development, or a similar technical discipline, and subsequently moved into technical program management.
This role requires someone who can operate at both technical and program leadership levels — understanding architecture and engineering discussions, while also driving governance, delivery, dependencies, risks, and executive decision-making across multiple teams.
Key Responsibilities
•
Lead complex technical programs from inception through delivery, ensuring alignment with business and technical objectives.
•
Own program governance, delivery frameworks, milestones, risks, and overall execution.
•
Take ownership of cross-team dependencies and proactively resolve blockers.
•
Facilitate executive-level discussions and support data-driven technical and delivery decisions.
•
Provide technical leadership and maintain a strong understanding of solution architecture, engineering practices, and technical dependencies.
•
Partner closely with Engineering, QA, Architecture, Product, and other technical teams to ensure successful program delivery.
•
Drive technical program planning, prioritization, execution, and continuous improvement.
•
Identify risks, dependencies, and delivery challenges early and implement effective mitigation strategies.
•
Lead cross-functional teams across multiple projects and workstreams.
•
Establish and monitor program KPIs, delivery metrics, and progress against objectives.
•
Communicate program status, risks, dependencies, and key decisions to senior leadership and executive stakeholders.
•
Operate effectively in fast-paced and ambiguous environments, making sound decisions and driving resolution.
Requirements
•
6+ years of experience in Technical Program Management, Technical Project Management, or a similar technical delivery leadership role.
•
Strong technical background, ideally having started a career in Software Engineering, QA Engineering, Development, or another technical engineering discipline.
•
Proven professional experience managing technical programs from inception to delivery in a senior role.
•
Strong understanding of software development lifecycle, engineering practices, and technical architectures.
•
Ability to understand and confidently discuss technical concepts, architecture, integrations, dependencies, and engineering challenges with technical teams.
•
Strong expertise in Agile methodologies and delivery frameworks such as Scrum and Kanban.
•
Proven experience in program governance and cross-functional delivery.
•
Strong stakeholder management and executive communication skills.
•
Ability to facilitate executive decisions and communicate complex technical topics clearly to senior leadership.
•
Proven ability to manage cross-team dependencies across multiple projects and workstreams.
•
Strong risk identification, mitigation, problem-solving, and decision-making skills.
•
Experience with project/program management tools such as Jira and Azure DevOps.
•
Demonstrated ability to lead cross-functional technical teams in complex and dynamic environments.
•
Strong understanding of technical program delivery, architecture ownership, and engineering best practices.
•
Comfortable working in ambiguous, fast-paced environments and driving initiatives with limited direction.
•
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Technology, or a related technical field preferred.
•
Relevant technical, Agile, or program management certifications are a plus.
