Key job responsibilities
As Sr TI Program Manager for the Marketing, Planning, Supply Chain, Data & Annotation team (MPSD&A), reporting to the organization Director, you drive organization-level integrated technical infrastructure program management - master scheduling, mechanisms for visibility and health, and communication of health, risks, and opportunities - uniting the team to deliver quickly and efficiently, drive improvement, and ensure the Prime Air program plan is achieved.
You manage complex infrastructure builds across multiple teams within and across organizations, delivering critical solutions, improvements, and new mechanisms, or deprecating processes no longer needed.
Accountable for a large program's strategy, you manage all stages from concept to delivery, meeting challenging business goals and driving measurable improvements in customer experience, efficiency, execution, compliance adherence, financial performance, and other metrics.
You understand the interdependencies and functionality of your technologies - customer requirements, deployment constraints, design limitations, and operational support - influencing priorities and strategy through data-driven contributions, and making the case for project priorities, resource allocation, and program adoption to resolve technical deficiencies or unblock delivery.
You communicate effectively, verbally and in writing, up to Directors and VPs - fostering constructive dialogue, harmonizing discordant views, and leading contentious issues to consensus. You partner with customers, stakeholders, and engineering teams.
You set the example: delivering the right things, defining clear goals, driving crisp decisions on project priority, and surfacing risks with mitigation plans before they block delivery. As a simplifier, you add, refine, and remove procedures to boost productivity. You participate in hiring as applicable and mentor others.
