  • Build and run an operating cadence for technical initiatives, including roadmap tracking, dependency management, risk escalation, and delivery accountability.
  • Identify opportunities to reduce manual work, improve scale, and prevent headcount from growing linearly with business complexity and launch volume.

Required skills and experience:

  • 5+ years of technical program management, systems implementation, or operational program leadership in a complex cross-functional environment.

  • Strong systems thinking and operational judgment, with the ability to connect technical decisions to customer impact, specialist usability, compliance risk, and business performance.
  • Experience translating operational strategy into technical requirements, data schemas, and tooling investments.
  • Strong understanding of content systems, knowledge management, workflow automation, and internal tooling in operations or CX environments.
  • Proven ability to drive alignment across technical and non-technical stakeholders, especially where ownership is distributed and tradeoffs must be actively managed.
  • Demonstrated experience leading ambiguous, multi-team initiatives from concept through launch with clear accountability, risk management, and measurable outcomes.
  • Utilizes generative AI responsibly, maintaining human oversight to deliver business-ready outputs and drive measurable improvements in workflow efficiency, cost, and quality
