You'll take end-to-end ownership of go-to-market programs for your slice of the portfolio, partnering closely with Engineering to plan and track the delivery work every launch depends on — and orchestrating the cross-functional effort across Product, Marketing, Sales Enablement, RevOps, Support, IT, and Legal that turns technical readiness into a successful launch.This is a role with real influence: you'll be technical enough to sit in the room with engineering leaders and understand trade-offs and risk, and you'll build the launch plans and visibility that make leadership confident every time.**What You'll Do*** Own end-to-end program management for feature and product launches — building the plan, sequencing workstreams, and keeping a clear, current view of status.* Plan and track the Engineering deliverables each launch depends on, so go-to-market commitments are grounded in real, current progress.* Serve as the connective tissue across Product, Engineering, Marketing, Sales Enablement, RevOps, Support, IT, and Legal — making sure nothing falls through the cracks.* Engage credibly with engineering teams on scope, sequencing, and trade-offs, flagging technical risk before it threatens a date.* Run a consistent cadence with cross-functional leaders to review readiness, resolve issues, and keep every function aligned.* Build and continuously refine a repeatable go-to-market launch playbook, using AI tools to cut manual overhead in status synthesis and risk surfacing.**What You'll Bring*** Demonstrable experience in Program Management, Technical Program Management, or Product Launch Management, owning go-to-market execution end-to-end — not just facilitating the process.* Bachelor's degree in Business, Marketing, or a related field; MBA preferred. PMP certification preferred.* Technical fluency — enough to engage credibly in trade-off, estimation, and risk conversations with engineering teams.* Strong cross-functional influence — the ability to drive alignment and accountability across Product, Engineering, Marketing, Sales, RevOps, Support, and IT without relying on organizational authority.* Exceptional communication skills — able to translate complex, cross-functional dynamics into clear, actionable insight for technical teams and senior leadership alike.* High ownership and a bias to action — you bring problems with proposed solutions, follow through without being asked, and measure yourself by what actually ships.* A genuine curiosity about how AI tools can make go-to-market execution faster and sharper, and a drive to try them rather than wait for someone else to.*The base salary range for this position is $124,000 - $186,000 base + benefits.
