  • Drive program governance, including reporting, risk tracking, and stakeholder communication
  • Identify and resolve cross-team dependencies, ensuring accountability and alignment across business units
  • Translate complex technical concepts into clear business impacts for non-technical stakeholders
  • Anticipate and mitigate risks, escalating as needed while driving solutions independently
  • Define and track key program metrics to measure progress, velocity, and outcomes
  • Provide clear, executive-level communication and reporting to senior stakeholders
  • Roll up sleeves when needed—digging into technical details to remove blockers and drive progress

  • Demonstrated ability to work with software engineering and product teams; experience with SDLC, Agile, and modern tooling
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills and able to influence at all levels of the organization
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities and comfortable with data-driven decision making
  • Action-driven with a bias for ownership and momentum, not just coordination
  • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and modern data systems (Snowflake, Databricks, Kafka, etc.)
  • Ability to present to executives with clarity and confidence, tailoring technical detail to business impact
  • Exposure to AI/ML or enterprise data initiatives is preferred
  • Experience in media, entertainment, or similar fast-moving industries is preferred

  • The unique and exciting opportunity to work at one of the leading global entertainment companies
  • Access to the tools, leadership, and resources you will need to create and drive a center of excellence
