Job Description

TECHNICAL PRODUCT MANAGER (TPM)

We are hiring a Technical Program Manager (TPM) to lead cross-functional technical programs from planning through delivery. The TPM will coordinate engineering, product, QA, security and infra teams to deliver complex, multi-stream projects on time, with quality and within scope. You will establish program governance, mitigate risks, remove blockers, and communicate progress and trade-offs to senior leadership.

Key responsibilities:

Own planning, execution and delivery of complex technical programs and multi-team projects.

Define program scope, objectives, milestones, timelines and success criteria in collaboration with stakeholders.

Break down initiatives into workstreams, create clear project plans, and coordinate cross-functional teams (engineering, product, design, QA, security, infra).

Drive program-level prioritisation and trade-off decisions, ensuring alignment to business goals and resource constraints.

Establish and run program governance: status cadence, steering committees, risk and dependency management, escalations.

Identify, track and mitigate risks, inter-team dependencies and blockers; escalate to leadership as needed.

Ensure technical requirements, architecture considerations and non-functional requirements (scalability, performance, security, compliance) are captured and addressed.

Measure program health via KPIs (on-time delivery, scope stability, bug count, performance SLAs) and report to stakeholders.

Facilitate engineering processes and continuous improvement: retrospectives, post-mortems, root cause analysis and action tracking.

Manage stakeholders: set expectations, provide clear and timely communication, and negotiate trade-offs where required.

Mentor project managers and coordinate external vendors/partners when applicable.

Qualifications & skills:

4-8+ years' experience in technical program management, program delivery, or engineering leadership.

Proven track record of successfully delivering complex, cross-functional technical programs in a fast-paced environment.

Strong technical background (software engineering or similar) -- ability to understand architecture, APIs, infra, and trade-offs.

Excellent program planning and execution skills; experienced with project management tools (Jira, Asana, MS Project) and program/roadmap tools.

Strong stakeholder management and communication skills -- experience presenting to senior leadership.

Experience with risk management, dependency mapping, and driving cross-team alignment.

Familiarity with Agile development practices and experience working with distributed teams.

Analytical mindset; comfortable with metrics-driven program health reporting.

Degree in Computer Science, Engineering or related field.

Desirable:

Experience with cloud platforms (AWS / GCP / Azure) and infra concerns (CI/CD, observability, scalability).

Knowledge of security/compliance requirements (ISO 27001, SOC2, GDPR) for programs with regulatory constraints.

Experience managing platform, infra, or data engineering programs.

Certifications: PMP, PRINCE2, or Agile/Scrum certifications (optional).

Prior experience in startups/scale-ups or enterprise product environments depending on role.
