Role Summary

TPMs partner closely with engineering & product leadership to deliver initiatives where architecture, integration, reliability, performance, and technical trade-offs are central to success. TPMs are expected to be technically fluent (able to understand system design, APIs, data flows, reliability constraints), while remaining primarily accountable for program execution, cross-functional alignment, and outcomes. They will partner closely with technical leads to drive the technical implementation plans and roadmaps. TPMs must be able to work in a complex environment with matrixed teams and organizations. TPMs must provide project/program visibility to technical and business stakeholders around key projects, status, risks, and post-launch metrics.

Key Responsibilities

• Program strategy & planning – Define program objectives, success metrics, scope boundaries, and sequencing. Build an integrated roadmap across teams; manage critical path and trade-offs.
• Technical coordination – Translate business goals into technical milestones and engineering deliverables. Drive integration plans across services, APIs, data contracts, and environments. Ensure non-functional requirements are planned: reliability, scalability, security, privacy, cost, and observability.
• Execution leadership – Establish operating cadence across internal & dependent teams (working session, project reviews, milestone reviews, launch readiness, go/no-go). Anticipate bottlenecks; negotiate sequencing and resourcing with engineering leaders. Own RAID management and escalation with options and recommendations.
• Release & operational readiness – Drive launch plans, cutovers, feature flags, rollback strategies, and runbooks. Partner with SRE/Infra to ensure monitoring, alerting, SLOs, and on-call readiness.
• Stakeholder management – Align engineering, product/business, security/compliance, and operations. Communicate progress and trade-offs clearly to leadership; maintain a decision log.

A TPM consistently: Drives cross-team execution without relying on escalation as the primary lever. Makes ambiguity smaller: produces clear charters, milestones, and dependency maps.

Understand enough technical detail to:

• Ask the right questions
• Surface integration risks early
• Identify missing work (e.g., telemetry, data backfills, DR, access controls)
• Anticipates and manages systemic risks (migration complexity, reliability debt, data quality)

Ships with operational excellence: readiness reviews, runbooks, SLOs, post-launch validation.

Qualification

Strong program management fundamentals (project planning, dependency mapping, RAID, stakeholder management). Technical fluency: system design concepts, APIs, data flows, environments, CI/CD concepts. Experience driving cross-team software/platform/infrastructure programs. Comfort with ambiguity and technical trade-offs; can facilitate decisions.

Preferred Qualification

• Experience with AI/ML or data platforms.
• Familiarity with SRE practices (SLO/SLI, incident management, observability).
• Experience with large migrations, platform modernization, or reliability programs.

Boundaries (What This Role Is Not)

Not the engineering manager or architect-of-record (but influences and unblocks). Not a "Jira admin" whose primary output is tickets; outcomes and alignment come first.
