About Suno

We're building the world's first creative entertainment platform, where the entire world can feel the joy and fulfillment of making music. Music is for everyone: Our users include everyone from grandmothers creating songs for their loved ones, to Grammy winners using Suno Studio, our power tool, to make the most popular hits in the world.

Building the future of entertainment requires ambition. The pace is fast, the problems are hard, and the work demands ownership and intensity. For the right people, it’s incredibly rewarding: a chance to shape a new medium, work with a small team that cares deeply about quality, make music, drink too much coffee, and build something that millions of people use to express themselves in ways that were never before possible.

Suno is the fastest growing consumer entertainment company and the leader in AI music. We are backed by leading investors including Bond Capital, Menlo Ventures, Lightspeed Venture Partners, IVP, Forerunner, Union Square Ventures, Alkeon, Quiet, Matrix Partners, Schroders Capital and, NVentures (venture arm of NVIDIA).

About the Role

Suno is looking for a Staff Technical Program Manager to help us scale our technical programs and launches - coordinating across engineering, product, and other functions to land some of our largest initiatives. As a Staff TPM, you’ll have the ability to create and drive programs, and partner with us to figure out where we should be investing that we aren’t today. TPM as a function is new to Suno, and there’s a real opportunity to help us build it from the ground up

What You'll Do
  • Lead cross-functional programs end to end — things like model launches, multi-team engineering efforts, and engineering initiatives — from scoping, through rollout, and tracking

  • Coach and grow the team's TPM, building the mentorship and structure that hasn't existed here before

  • Help shape what "TPM" means at Suno — the working model, the organizing principles, and where the function needs to grow

  • Partner closely with engineering leadership so cross-functional continues to move fast and collaboration is easy, contributing directly to team velocity

  • Help turn Suno's mission — making creative fulfillment a daily reality for everyone — into shipped, coordinated reality across teams

What You'll NeedMust-Haves
  • 8–10 years in program or technical program management

  • Demonstrated adaptability — you find the right approach for the environment you're in rather than importing what worked somewhere else

  • A clear, articulable framework for how you evaluate and measure whether a program is actually succeeding

  • Enough technical/coding fluency to get hands-on and understand the work that needs to be done, not just coordinate around it

Nice-to-Haves
  • Track record of building a program from zero in genuine ambiguity and landing it

  • Experience coaching or mentoring other program managers

  • Background at a consumer tech company, a high-scale tech company, or a hypergrowth scale-up

  • Experience coordinating launches for AI or ML-driven products
