Job Description:

• We are seeking a Business Program Manager to take ownership of a large-scale Student Researcher Program (internship program).

• This is an operations-focused role responsible for managing end-to-end program execution and optimization, ensuring smooth day-to-day operations, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to scale the program efficiently.

• The role requires managing a high volume of interns (approximately 120 over six months) and delivering program outcomes while maintaining executive-level communication with leadership. This position focuses on program operations rather than direct recruiting or candidate sourcing.

Responsibilities:

• Program Management & Execution: Own end-to-end program operations, including overseeing project approvals, candidate pipelines, and coordination with recruiting teams.

• Executive Communication: Present updates and manage communications with senior leadership and executives.

• Cross-Functional Partnership: Act as a bridge between internal teams, including recruiting, finance, operational teams, and research leads.

• Budget & Metrics Reporting: Support overall strategy, manage budgets, report program metrics, and perform basic data analysis (e.g., validating figures with LLMs).

• Seasonal Program Focus: Adapt program management priorities based on seasonal cycles, with hiring periods requiring high-volume coordination and backend periods focusing on reporting and budgeting.

Experience:

• Minimum 2–3 years of proven programmatic/project coordination experience; optimal experience ranges from 2–7 years.

• Prior experience in a tech company is required.

• Previous program management experience is required, ideally with end-to-end program ownership.

• Prior recruiting experience or understanding of candidate pipelines is preferred.

• Experience in research environments, particularly AI or technical research, is a plus.

• Familiarity with managing intern programs or similar high-volume programs is advantageous.

Skills:

• Project and program management, with autonomy to take scoped work and execute independently.

• Executive communication skills; ability to communicate effectively with senior leadership.

• Proficiency in productivity and collaboration tools (e.g., GWorkspace – email, Sheets).

• Ability to work across large, matrixed organizations or mixed company environments.

• Familiarity with AI tools (e.g., LLMs like ChatGPT or Gemini) for data validation and reporting is desirable.

Education:

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience required.
