Sr. Program Manager/ Lead Technology Project Manager | JPC-9004

USC/GC/GC-EAD/TN Location: Tue-Thur, Hybrid onsite in Dublin, CA Duration: 6+ Months Contract

Job Description

• Experience with mobile application projects from the IT side
• Ideally retail experience
• Not a stranger to AI
• React Native experience - enough to contribute informed perspective to the platform decision
• Budget, vendor-spend, and financial tracking experience
• Strong project/program management skills
• Deeply organized
• Ability to come up with a detailed plan with milestones
• Someone who can proactively work with other groups to understand their tasks and drive them to completion
• Someone who is not just an order taker, but someone who will question and push back if they think things could be done differently
• Someone who can present status at an executive level – likely up to CIO, maybe higher
• Senior-level PM/program management capability appropriate for a highly visible initiative.
• Exceptional communication skills and ability to operate effectively with senior/executive leadership, including CIO-level conversations and potentially CEO-level preparation/interactions.
• Proactive leadership: not an order taker; able to independently identify gaps, make recommendations and drive work forward.
• Strong technical-program fluency: understands when API/integration, security, UI, testing, backend/data and test-data considerations enter the lifecycle. Coding ability is not required.
• Cross-functional coordination: capable of driving dependencies among engineering/API, integrations, security, architecture, technical leadership, vendors and business stakeholders.
• Hands-on project management: personally develops project plans, milestones and associated detailed PM work rather than delegating it to an analyst.
• Ability to enter a very early-stage program and help drive vendor selection, planning and design/architecture coordination.

Ideal candidate profile

Think senior technical program leader who still likes doing the work, rather than a high-level portfolio PM.

The strongest profile would show:

• Led a customer-facing application or similarly complex enterprise technology initiative from early planning through delivery.
• Strong evidence of taking an undefined initiative and creating the roadmap, milestones, dependencies and governance necessary to move it forward.
• Experience coordinating application engineering, APIs, integrations, architecture, testing/data and security teams.
• Enough mobile knowledge to challenge assumptions and identify missing workstreams, without presenting themselves as the solution architect or developer.
• Examples of driving vendors and internal engineering teams simultaneously.
• Executive communication experience, paired with willingness to personally maintain the project plan and chase dependencies.
• Proactive behavior: can explain what they discovered, what they recommended and what they drove, rather than only describing meetings they facilitated.
