If you thrive on turning ambiguity into action and love seeing large-scale programs land successfully, this role is for you.

• Facilitate program meetings to drive key decisions and clear obstacles; maintain comprehensive documentation including status reports, governance materials, and leadership readouts covering risks, metrics, and decisions

• Coordinate handoffs, manage cross-program interdependencies, and drive retrospectives to embed continuous improvement into delivery practices

• Support PI Planning (for SAFe engagements) and other planning ceremonies, synthesizing outputs into actionable program materials

• Identify program budget needs and partner with portfolio management on quarterly forecasting, tracking, and reporting

What We're Looking For

Required Qualifications

• 7+ years of Technical Program Management experience in a highly matrixed enterprise environment, including 3+ years executing programs in a hybrid delivery model (Waterfall and Agile) using frameworks such as Scrum, Kanban, or SAFe

• PMP certification and at least one Agile certification (Scrum Master, SAFe, or equivalent)

• Proven ability to influence senior stakeholders and executives, build alignment across diverse teams, and communicate program status with clarity and confidence at all levels

• Experience establishing and maintaining program governance frameworks, including risk management, budget forecasting, and delivery reporting in a portfolio context

• Working knowledge of core HR and payroll platforms (e.g., Workday, Benefex, Equity Edge), financial systems (e.g., SPIFF, Concur), and integration technologies; ability to engage credibly with engineers and architects on data flows, system dependencies, and cross-functional technical trade-offs across payroll, equity, and financial operations

• Working knowledge of AI tools and how to apply them to drive delivery management efficiencies

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience supporting IT programs in the Employee Success or Finance domain

• Familiarity with portfolio management practices and tools

• Track record of building and maturing program governance frameworks from the ground up
