Job summary

You’ll be the engine of execution, operating frameworks on the ground and leading complex programs, including AI-driven initiatives.

You will manage multiple programs, maintain a Program Playbook, establish execution rhythms, act as information radiator, integrate AI workflows, and govern unpredictable AI development.

Qualifications

• Minimum of 7 years of experience in SaaS product development, program management, and release management.
• Direct experience with AI-driven development lifecycles and utilizing AI/Agentic workflows to optimize program management architectures.
• BS in Computer Science, Engineering, Statistics, or a related technical field.

• Manage multiple concurrent programs varying in size and complexity, maintaining objective oversight while demonstrating a deep passion for the program's success.
• Ensure every program aligns to a strict Program Playbook—meaning the technical capability is successfully delivered and the targeted outcomes are fully realized.
• Establish a consistent execution rhythm and rituals to force decision-making, remove blockers, and clarify ownership.
• Act as an "information radiator," utilizing clear reporting systems to communicate delivery health, milestone tracking, and look-ahead risk analysis to leadership.
• Integrate AI seamlessly into your program management workflows, such as utilizing AI and agentic tools to automate RAID (Risks, Actions, Issues, Decisions) logs and synthesize status updates into concise executive summaries.
• Govern the inherent unpredictability of AI development, adapting traditional program management to account for experimentation.
• Maintain a centralized Work Surface (e.g., Jira, Confluence) as the ultimate hub for tracking initiative status, critical paths, and dependencies.
• Identify and overcome delivery roadblocks in a complex environment, escalating risks quickly and effectively.
