Job description

The Staff BPM implements and runs the operating mechanisms that keep the engineering organization aligned and moving. This role owns planning cadences, leadership rhythms, and decision follow‑through so engineering leaders have clear priorities, visibility into risks and dependencies, and reliable execution of the business of engineering.

• Delivery visibility and reporting: Partner with Product Operations, TPMs, and functional leaders to ensure end‑to‑end delivery status reporting rhythm and artifacts.
• Executive‑ready synthesis: Synthesize cross‑team updates into decision‑ready narratives that clarify progress, risks, tradeoffs, and decisions needed.
• Milestone, dependency, and risk management: Establish and maintain tracking for broader organization programs and business initiatives across Platform and Product Engineering.
• Cross‑team alignment: Drive alignment on program milestones, owners, and timelines; surface risks, constraints, and tradeoffs early.
• Escalation paths: Maintain clear escalation paths and decision forums for program‑level risks, resourcing constraints, and cross‑team dependencies.
• Cross‑functional partnership: Partner with Product Ops, Finance, and relevant organization partners to support planning/forecasting inputs and consistent reporting.
• Coordination across functions: Coordinate across functions when initiatives span multiple teams.
• Continuous improvement: Identify friction and failure modes in the operating system and propose, pilot, and roll out improvements grounded in measurable outcomes and stakeholder feedback.
• AI‑enabled operating system improvements: Identify opportunities to responsibly apply AI to reduce overhead and increase clarity, and establish lightweight guidelines for quality, privacy, and traceability.

Qualifications (required)

• 6+ years of experience in program management, business operations, or similar roles in a technology environment.
• Proven ability to run cross‑functional operating cadences and planning processes with multiple stakeholders.
• Strong facilitation, stakeholder management, and written communication skills.
• Comfort working in ambiguity and improving systems over time.
• Demonstrated ability to use AI tools to improve speed and quality of synthesis, reporting, and documentation.

Qualifications (preferred)

• Experience supporting an engineering organization and partnering closely with Product Operations and TPM.
• Experience with portfolio visibility and lightweight reporting to inform tradeoffs and prioritization.
• Experience improving planning and operating rhythms at scale.
