Full description

This is a remote position.

We’re seeking a highly organized and technically fluent Technical Program Manager to support cross-functional execution across product, engineering, and operations.

This role is ideal for someone who combines strong project management skills with a solid technical understanding of how digital systems work. You will not be coding, but you must be comfortable discussing APIs, backend/frontend architecture, deployments, and technical workflows with engineering teams.

This is a hands-on operational role. Beyond managing timelines and tracking deliverables, you will work directly with tools such as CMS platforms, analytics dashboards, and other digital systems to support execution.

You will play a key role in ensuring initiatives are delivered on time, aligned with product goals, and executed with operational excellence.

Responsibilities:

  • Build and manage project timelines across cross-functional teams
  • Ensure on-time delivery of product and operational initiatives
  • Coordinate closely with engineering, product, and operations teams
  • Translate business and product requirements into actionable execution plans
  • Work directly with tools such as CMS platforms and analytics systems
  • Monitor progress, identify blockers, and proactively drive solutions
  • Maintain clarity and alignment across stakeholders
  • Support deployment and release coordination when needed

This role goes beyond running stand ups and writing Jira tickets. It requires hands-on operational ownership.

Language Requirement: Full professional fluency in English (written and verbal) is mandatory.

Requirements

Technical Foundation

  • Strong understanding of how backend and frontend systems interact
  • Familiarity with APIs and how API calls function
  • Understanding of deployments and environments (development, staging, production)
  • Ability to communicate effectively with engineering teams

Project & Delivery Management

  • Proven ability to create and manage timelines
  • Experience keeping teams accountable to deadlines
  • Strong organizational and execution skills
  • Comfortable working with project management tools (e.g., Jira or similar)

Product & Operational Mindset

  • Strong product logic and structured thinking
  • Ability to understand feature scope and dependencies
  • Hands-on experience with CMS platforms and/or analytics tools preferred
  • Willingness to execute operational tasks directly, not purely coordinate

Personal Attributes

  • Detail-oriented and proactive
  • Strong communicator
  • Solution-oriented mindset
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment

Nice to have:

  • Previous experience in a product-led digital company

Background in engineering or technical roles (not required, but valued)
