Job description

Technology Program Manager - Associate / Assistant Vice President

New York, New York, United States

About the Role

iCapital is seeking a Technology Program Manager to partner closely with Engineering and Technology leadership teams to deliver complex, high-impact initiatives across the firm’s most critical technology priorities. This role sits at the intersection of strategy and execution, bringing best-in-class program management practices to large-scale, cross-functional initiatives. The team operates in an internal consulting capacity, driving clarity, alignment, and disciplined execution across multi-team programs. This individual will engage across a diverse portfolio including greenfield software development, enterprise vendor implementations, cloud and infrastructure initiatives, data and analytics and machine learning efforts, and broader technology innovation programs.

As iCapital continues to scale, the company is increasingly leveraging AI-enabled tools and automation to enhance engineering productivity and program transparency. This role requires comfort operating in an AI-augmented environment, identifying opportunities to use emerging technologies to improve planning, reporting, decision‑making, and cross‑team coordination. This is a leadership and execution role focused on orchestration, visibility, and delivery excellence; it does not involve hands‑on coding or testing.

Responsibilities

• Lead end‑to‑end delivery of complex, cross‑functional technology programs spanning multiple engineering teams.
• Partner with the Engineering teams to define scope, roadmap, milestones, and measurable outcomes.
• Establish clear governance, reporting, and risk‑management practices to ensure transparency and accountability.
• Communicate program status, risks, dependencies, and mitigation strategies to senior stakeholders.
• Collaborate with Technology leadership to shape forward‑looking strategy and execution frameworks.
• Drive continuous improvement initiatives to enhance delivery effectiveness across the broader Technology teams.
• Bring structure and clarity to ambiguous or evolving initiatives.

Qualifications

• 5‑10 years of relevant experience
• Bachelor’s degree in engineering, computer science, business administration, or related field preferred
• Experience in at least two of the following: technical program management, financial services industry, or technology or financial services consulting
• Strong understanding of software development lifecycle (SDLC) methodologies
• Familiar with relational database concepts and data modeling
• Exposure to cloud technologies (i.e. AWS)
• Experience with project management tools such as JIRA, Monday.com, or similar platforms
• Able to influence stakeholders and build consensus across diverse viewpoints
• Strategic thinker who can connect big‑picture objectives to detailed execution plans
• Comfortable navigating complexity and ambiguity
• Exceptional verbal and written communication skills and organizational skills with attention to detail
• Strong interpersonal skills with a collaborative, team‑oriented mindset
• Able to operate effectively both independently and within cross‑functional teams
• PMP certification is a plus

The base salary range for this role is $100,000 to $120,000. iCapital offers a compensation package which includes salary, equity for all full‑time employees, and an annual performance bonus. Employees also receive a comprehensive benefits package that includes an employer‑matched retirement plan, generously subsidized healthcare with 100% employer paid dental, vision, telemedicine, and virtual mental health counseling, parental leave, and unlimited paid time off (PTO).

We believe the best ideas and innovation happen when we are together. Employees in this role will work in the office Monday‑Thursday, with the flexibility to work remotely on Friday.
