The Opportunity
We're looking for a Senior Program Manager to own how we plan, coordinate, and deliver product. Reporting directly to our CPO, you'll be the connective tissue between product, engineering, design, and go-to-market teams, making sure we ship what we committed to, when we committed to it, with a steady and predictable cadence.
This is a high-impact role for someone who has established program management principles and product delivery programs before in a startup environment. You know how to bring just enough process to create clarity and momentum without slowing a highly motivated, fast-moving team down.
About the role
- Turn roadmap priorities into clear, sequenced programs with milestones, owners, and dependencies, and drive them through to launch.
- Design and run the planning, tracking, and review processes that make delivery predictable.
- Coordinate across engineering, product, design, marketing, sales, and customer success to enable us to successfully launch new products at a high cadence.
- Establish lightweight status reporting and dashboards so leadership and stakeholders always know where things stand.
- Run retrospectives, surface learnings, identify recurring bottlenecks, and continuously refine our processes and tooling as the company scales.
- Help translate strategy into execution and prepare for leadership and board-level roadmap discussions.
Requirement
- 5+ years of experience in program management, technical program management, or product delivery roles, with at least 3 years in a startup or high-growth environment.
- A proven track record of shipping complex, cross-functional software products on schedule.
- Experience building delivery processes from the ground up and adapting them as teams grow.
- Excellent judgment about how much process is the right amount for a team at a given stage.
- Outstanding communication skills, with the ability to deliver clear updates and hard news to executives and individual contributors alike.
- Comfort with ambiguity and the ability to create structure where none exists.
Nice to Have
- Experience in the cybersecurity industry or with enterprise-focused SaaS solutions.
- Experience scaling a delivery function through a key growth stage.
- Familiarity with agile methodologies and release management practices.
