Requirements:

  • 7+ years in technical program management, 3+ at principal / staff level
  • Track record delivering large, complex programs in engineering-led organizations
  • Experience owning or co-owning quarterly and annual engineering roadmap planning
  • Strong command of Agile, SAFe, or equivalent delivery frameworks
  • Proven ability to align engineering and product roadmaps across competing priorities
  • Experience influencing VP+ stakeholders without direct authority
  • Fluency with delivery metrics: DORA, SPACE, cycle time, deployment frequency
  • Deep experience with Jira, Confluence, and Atlassian-native workflows

Roles and Responsibilities

  • Own the end-to-end delivery of 2–3 strategic programs spanning engineering, product, and cross-functional teams — from scoping through to measurable outcomes.
  • Build and maintain trust with senior engineering and product leaders by providing reliable, well-structured program oversight that surfaces the right information at the right time.
  • Drive clarity in ambiguous situations — breaking down complex, multi-team initiatives into structured plans with clear ownership, milestones, and success criteria.
  • Identify risks early, drive decisions to closure, and escalate the right things to the right people without over-engineering the process.
  • Lead cross-functional alignment across engineering, product, design, data, and security 
  • Build program dashboards and reporting cadences that give leadership a clear, honest picture of portfolio health without creating unnecessary overhead for delivery teams.
  • Shape and maintain a program governance model that scales — decision rights, escalation paths, steering cadences — tailored to program complexity rather than one-size-fits-all.
  • Contribute to the broader TPM community by developing reusable patterns, playbooks, and frameworks that raise the floor for program delivery across the org.

All employees are expected to demonstrate AI fluency appropriate to their role and level, including responsible use of AI tools, sound judgment, and adherence to company AI governance and security policy standards.

Come work with us! Our team members are valued for their contributions, introduced to new opportunities, and rewarded well. Perforce combines the experience and rewards of a start-up with the security of an established and privately held profitable company.
