About the role
The Director of Technical Program Management at Prenuvo will establish and lead the TPM function. This is a builder role where you will define the operating model for technical program management across Product & Technology and create the planning, dependency management, risk management, and launch-readiness disciplines required to execute increasingly complex programs. You will also remain hands-on, personally leading some of Prenuvo's most important cross-functional programs, particularly in patient retention and longitudinal care.
What You'll Do
- Establish lightweight, scalable practices for program planning, governance, dependency management, risk management, and executive visibility.
- Create clear measures of program health, technical readiness, and launch readiness that enable timely intervention.
- Personally lead Prenuvo's most complex, high-priority initiatives across Product, Engineering, and business functions.
- Develop integrated program plans that clarify milestones, dependencies, sequencing, resource constraints, decisions, and critical paths.
- Apply strong technical judgment to challenge assumptions, uncover hidden dependencies, and identify risks before they affect delivery.
- Drive resolution of cross-team blockers and ensure critical decisions are made at the right level and time.
- Establish consistent launch-readiness expectations across technical, operational, clinical, regulatory, privacy, legal, support, and go-to-market teams.
- Give Product & Technology leadership a clear view of portfolio health, trade-offs, shared constraints, and upcoming decisions to improve prioritization and sequencing.
- Recruit, develop, and coach a high-impact TPM team known for ownership, technical curiosity, transparency, and constructive challenge.
What You'll Bring
- 10+ years of experience across technical program management, engineering program management, product development, or closely related roles.
- 2+ years of people leadership, with experience developing TPMs or other technical program leaders.
- Experience building or materially evolving program-management practices in a growing technology organization.
- A track record leading large, technically complex initiatives involving multiple engineering and product teams.
- Strong technical fluency, even if not a software engineer, with comfort learning systems quickly and discussing architecture, APIs, data flows, platforms, technical constraints, and engineering trade-offs.
- Demonstrated strength in dependency management, risk management, technical planning, and launch readiness.
- Exceptional ability to turn ambiguity into structure without introducing unnecessary bureaucracy.
- Strong executive communication and the judgment to know when a problem needs escalation versus team-level resolution.
- Experience influencing leaders and teams without relying solely on formal authority.
- Comfort operating as both a senior leader and a hands-on program owner.
- Experience in healthcare, health technology, regulated technology, or another complex environment is preferred.
- Experience in a high-growth or scale-up environment is strongly preferred.
