• Partner closely with engineering leaders, product managers, architects, and business stakeholders to establish comprehensive program plans, milestones, dependencies, and success criteria.
• Drive execution across multiple teams and organizational boundaries, creating clarity around priorities, ownership, timelines, and expected outcomes.
• Manage program risks, issues, dependencies, and blockers, identifying emerging challenges early and developing practical mitigation strategies.
• Provide clear, consistent communication on program health, progress, tradeoffs, risks, and decisions to stakeholders and senior leadership.
• Make thoughtful tradeoff recommendations that balance technical complexity, customer impact, business priorities, resources, and delivery timelines.
• Lead programs across security and developer technology domains, potentially including application security, software supply chain security, AI-powered developer experiences, developer platforms, and large-scale product launches.
• Build strong working relationships across engineering, product, design, go-to-market, and business functions, influencing outcomes without relying on direct authority.
• Translate complex technical architecture, product requirements, and business objectives into actionable execution frameworks that enable teams to deliver.
• Identify opportunities to improve program management processes, operational practices, tools, and frameworks, helping scale effective TPM practices across the organization.
• Develop reusable approaches and mechanisms that improve planning, execution, visibility, and operational excellence across technical programs.
• Navigate ambiguity and organizational complexity with a results-oriented approach, maintaining momentum while adapting plans as priorities evolve.
• Contribute to a culture of continuous learning by sharing knowledge, developing best practices, and helping others strengthen their program management capabilities.

Requirements:

• 8+ years of experience in engineering, technical or product program management, data analysis, product development, or an equivalent combination of experience and education.
• Alternatively, a bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Data Science, Mathematics, Business, or a related field with 6+ years of relevant experience; a master's degree with 4+ years of relevant experience may also qualify.
• At least 5 years of experience managing cross-functional and/or cross-team projects involving multiple stakeholders and dependencies.
• 7+ years of experience working directly with engineering, product, and business teams to launch new products or capabilities, with a demonstrated record of shipping, learning, and iterating.
• Strong technical fluency and the ability to quickly understand software development projects, technical architectures, system designs, and emerging technologies.
• Demonstrated experience creating clarity in complex or ambiguous environments and driving programs from broad objectives to measurable execution.
• Experience leading large-scale technical programs, ideally involving application security, AI-powered developer experiences, software supply chain technologies, developer platforms, or related technical domains.
• Strong understanding of Agile and traditional project management methodologies, with the ability to combine approaches and develop practical hybrid frameworks based on program needs.
• Proven ability to identify project status, surface complex blockers, manage risks, and respond with urgency when unexpected issues arise.
• Exceptional cross-functional collaboration and influencing skills, with demonstrated success delivering results across organizational boundaries without direct authority.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to synthesize technical and business information and communicate effectively with both technical and executive audiences.
• Strong organizational, analytical, and decision-making skills, with the ability to balance competing priorities and recommend effective tradeoffs.
• Intellectual curiosity and a strong passion for learning, continuous improvement, and helping others develop.
• Comfortable working in a fully remote, globally distributed environment and willing to travel when required to support program objectives.
• Ability to operate independently, take ownership of outcomes, and maintain momentum in a fast-moving environment.

Benefits:

• Base salary: $140,400-$372,300 USD annually, with actual compensation determined by factors including location, experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities.
• Eligibility for additional rewards, including annual bonuses and stock, depending on role and individual impact.
