Technical Program Manager

About the Role

As our first Technical Program Manager, you’ll work closely with engineering and research teams to drive execution of complex, cross-functional initiatives. You will bring structure to ambiguity, build lightweight systems that grow with us, and ensure our most critical projects ship with quality and speed.

This is a high-ownership role where you’ll wear multiple hats — part strategist, part operator, part engineer-whisperer.

What You’ll Do

  • Own and drive execution of key programs across research, infrastructure, and product

  • Build and run planning rituals: quarterly planning, standups, retros, and reviews

  • Proactively manage timelines, scope, and risks across multi-team efforts

  • Partner with engineering and product to define requirements, milestones, and success metrics

  • Identify bottlenecks, manage interdependencies, and escalate issues as needed

  • Improve team velocity through documentation, tooling, and workflow improvements

  • Translate technical complexity into crisp communication for cross-functional stakeholders

What We’re Looking For

  • 4–8 years of experience in program or technical project management

  • Background in engineering or technical product management

  • Strong technical literacy — comfortable in technical conversations around infra, ML, and APIs

  • Proven experience managing cross-functional initiatives in a startup or fast-paced environment

  • Exceptional communication and organizational skills

  • Ability to anticipate problems, de-risk plans, and bring calm to chaos

  • Bias toward action and systems thinking

Nice to Have

  • Experience in ML, data infra, or devtools environments

  • Experience working closely with research teams
