  • Identify and address pain points in infrastructure usage across multiple teams.
  • Define and execute large-scale technical programs with deep engineering knowledge.
  • Develop and implement program management techniques and KPIs to achieve goals.
  • Train and elevate the execution capabilities of engineering teams on delivery.
  • Create strategic plans and drive alignment for cross-functional critical programs.

What we're looking for

  • 5+ years of experience in software engineering, systems engineering, or technical program management.
  • Deep understanding of core infrastructure including databases, cloud compute, networking, and services.
  • Proven ability to manage large-scale technical programs from kickoff to launch across multiple teams.
