The ideal candidate thrives in ambiguity, brings strong business and technical judgment, and has a track record of delivering complex programs. You are a crisp communicator who can influence at the VP level and translate business goals into actionable roadmaps. If you want to solve one of the most challenging problems in logistics, making delivery faster for every customer, everywhere, this is your role.
Key job responsibilities
Serve as the single-threaded leader owning complex programs across multiple VP organizations
Identify business and technical requirements with science, operations, product, and engineering stakeholders, translating them into specifications, scoped deliverables, and program roadmap from design through launch
Lead design and implementation efforts across cross-functional teams, making trade-offs to optimize time-to-market
Own stakeholder communication through all stages of the product lifecycle, clearly articulating goals, roles, and desired outcomes
Drive high-level strategic initiatives while being willing to roll up your sleeves and get the job done
The right candidate will have a strong program management background, demonstrated experience leading large to extra-large projects, and a well-rounded technical foundation. You must thrive in an entrepreneurial environment and not be hindered by ambiguity or competing priorities.
A day in the life
Your day starts by connecting the dots across teams, aligning product, engineering, and operations leaders on what matters most for our customer and business. You will run strategic reviews, unblock cross-functional dependencies, and make trade-off decisions that keep programs on track. Some days you are deep in data, shaping the roadmap; other days you are in a room full of senior leaders driving alignment on the next big bet. No two days look the same, but every day you are directly influencing how fast customers get their packages.
