Senior Technical Program Manager
Primary Job Responsibilities
- Technical design.
- Lead solutioning and technical review for your programs, using AI agents that surface unstated assumptions in PRDs, propose architecture options against historical incidents, and generate ADRs from review sessions; partner with engineering on what these agents need to do next.
- Planning.
- Drive capacity and resource planning, dependency identification, and project schedule development, using planning agents that produce candidate capacity models and schedules from product requirements, team velocity, and sprint history; bring the judgment to resolve plan-versus-capacity trade-offs the system can’t decide on its own.
- Scheduling.
- Own cross-team scheduling for your programs, supported by AI surfaces that detect bottlenecks, model re-sequencing options when dependencies shift, and surface schedule risk; set the policies these surfaces operate under for your program and own the trade-offs when the call becomes strategic.
- Trade-off decisions.
- Make scope, sequencing, and resourcing trade-offs when the AI surface presents options that require judgment on business impact, organizational context, executive priorities, or partner commitments the system can’t see.
- Delivery.
- Lead program delivery — task planning, scope coverage, cross-team dependency resolution, issue management, and launch quality — supported by agents that draft tickets with acceptance criteria, scan in-flight tickets for scope drift, monitor cross-team dependencies and contract drift, generate launch-readiness scoring, and analyze integration test coverage against critical paths; negotiate priorities, break ties, escalate to leadership, and own the launch quality call.
- Communication.
- Drive stakeholder communication on project progress, health, risk, and KPI movement on cadence and on demand, using AI-powered status synthesizers, KPI monitors, and risk surfacers; own executive communication on strategic initiatives where the narrative matters as much as the numbers.
- Knowledge management.
- Lead knowledge management for your program — capture, organize, and distribute feature and system decisions and documentation, leveraging auto-extraction pipelines that draw from tickets, PRs, design docs, and meeting transcripts; help define the schema, evals, and refresh cadence for what your program contributes.
- AI tooling contribution.
- Actively shape the AI tooling roadmap for your program — propose what to automate next, partner with engineering on design and prioritization, and surface real-world feedback that drives the tooling’s evolution.
- Eval design.
- Design and operate evals for the agents in your program — accuracy, faithfulness, drift over time — and pull agents back to human review when evals fall below threshold.
Skills And Qualifications
- 7+ years of technical project management at a technology company, including 3+ years leading software development with schedules and deadlines, preferably in SaaS
- Practical experience using LLM-based agents or AI workflows in production, and contributing to their design, prompts, and evaluation
- Experience contributing to evaluations for AI systems (accuracy, faithfulness, drift detection) and using them to drive quality decisions
- Technical depth sufficient to read engineering design proposals, debate prompt and tooling strategies, and contribute to AI-based solution evals
- Strong bias for action — proven ability to make progress in ambiguous environments with incomplete information or imperfect tools
- Proven track record of leading complex programs across cross-functional teams using agile methodologies
- Experience with standard project planning, roadmapping, and issue tracking tools
- BS/BA degree required, preferably in computer science or technical disciplines
- Preferred Qualifications
- Experience using AI agents in production team workflows in partnership with engineering, including under an AI-first gating principle
- Experience with structured knowledge extraction or retrieval-augmented systems
- Experience driving adoption of new tooling or process across engineering teams
- Scrum Master, Scaled Agilist, or PMP Certification
- Experience owning program strategy, end-to-end delivery, and communicating results to senior leadership
- Experience in a company at scale or previous work in a large software development organization
