Technical Project Program Manager

Context:
Our organization operates in a large-scale, complex environment with multiple software products, cross-functional teams, and interdependent systems. Delivering technology initiatives requires strong coordination among engineering, architecture, product management, security, and business stakeholders.

This role must navigate multiple stakeholders, resolve dependencies, and manage risks while ensuring that technical teams remain aligned and supported. The primary challenge is to ensure that complex projects are delivered successfully within the defined scope, timelines, and constraints. Success requires balancing strategic oversight with hands-on execution to drive reliable, transparent, and high-quality software delivery in a fast-paced enterprise environment.

The Technical Project Manager plays a critical role in bridging gaps between teams and orchestrating complex project delivery. This person ensures effective communication, manages escalations without impacting relationships, and maintains strong cross-functional alignment.

Additionally, the TPM will actively influence the selection and adoption of technologies, helping guide the organization toward scalable, modern, and strategic technical solutions.
