This is an excellent opportunity for a program manager who has a strong technical foundation and can effectively navigate complex systems, drive alignment across stakeholders, and translate business requirements into actionable technology initiatives. The ideal candidate brings a blend of traditional PMO discipline and technical expertise, with prior experience in software development, engineering, or highly technical program management environments.

• Manage program timelines, dependencies, risks, and executive-level reporting.
• Coordinate work across multiple development teams and technology platforms.
• Translate complex technical concepts into clear and concise updates for both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Ensure projects follow established governance, PMO, and delivery best practices.
• Build strong relationships and foster collaboration across geographically dispersed teams.

Required Qualifications

• 6-10 years of experience in Program Management, Technical Program Management, or Project Management.
• Strong technical acumen with the ability to engage in architecture, application, integration, and software delivery discussions.
• Previous hands-on experience in software development, engineering, systems analysis, or another technical discipline.
• Demonstrated experience managing large, cross-functional technology initiatives.
• Experience working in Agile, Scrum, Waterfall, or hybrid delivery environments.
• Strong understanding of the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC).
• Exceptional communication, presentation, and stakeholder management skills.
• Proven ability to influence without authority and drive alignment across multiple teams.
• Experience managing competing priorities in a fast-paced environment.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience within the financial services or banking industry.
• Experience supporting digital account opening, onboarding, funding, or customer experience initiatives.
• Exposure to AI-enabled technologies, including Microsoft 365 Copilot, GitHub Copilot, or other AI productivity tools.
• Experience working with globally distributed teams.

What We’re Looking For

• An exceptional communicator who can confidently interact with engineers, product leaders, and business stakeholders.
• Comfortable navigating technical complexity and ambiguity.
• Highly organized with strong program governance skills.
• Able to quickly understand interconnected systems and dependencies.
• Proactive, collaborative, and solution-oriented.
