Principal Technical Program Manager (TPM), you are pivotal in managing complex cross-functional programs that significantly impact the organization. You may be responsible for managing a broad range of initiatives that span multiple organizations or geographies in support of a larger business objective.
Key job responsibilities
You are accountable for the overall strategy and driving teams inside and outside your organization to deliver results.

You oversee the gap between teams, processes, and system architectures, helping to reduce exposure to classic failure modes. You solve ambiguous problems and proactively identify and mitigate risks, and you demonstrate good judgment in how and when to escalate. You are data-driven, regularly reviewing metrics and seeking new and improved data/mechanisms for visibility. You ensure your program stays aligned with organizational objectives.
