As part of Intuit's People & Places organization, we are stewards of our greatest strategic asset: our people. Our mission is to build a high-performing organization that fuels innovation and delivers on Intuit's Bold 2030 ambitions.

We are seeking a Principal Program Manager to architect and lead Intuit's Emerging Talent school and ecosystem strategy across North America. This role will define and evolve our multi-year university engagement strategy to ensure we are building durable, future-forward pipelines of early career talent across technical and non-technical domains.

As the subject matter expert in early career strategy, you will design the North America university portfolio, shape long-term campus investment decisions, and cultivate deep partnerships with institutions that align to Intuit's evolving skill needs particularly across AI, Engineering, Product, and innovation-critical capabilities.
