What You’ll Bring
Program & Delivery Expertise
6–9 years of Technical Program Management experience, ideally in a fintech, SaaS, or capital markets environment
Demonstrated ability to build project charters and drive programs from ambiguity to delivery with minimal direction
Proficiency with program management tooling and artifacts: roadmaps, Gantt charts, risk registries, and milestone tracking (Jira, Confluence, or equivalent)
Strong command of agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban) and familiarity with waterfall delivery where applicable
Solid understanding of SDLC and how software moves from concept to production
Technical Fluency
Working knowledge of engineering fundamentals — infrastructure, architecture, and system design — sufficient to engage credibly with technical teams
Familiarity with design principles, APIs, and cloud platforms
Comfort with AI tools and a creative, curious approach to using them — especially for reporting, documentation, and program communication
Collaboration & Communication
Strong cross-functional coordination skills — comfortable managing relationships across engineering, product, design, and business stakeholders
Excellent written and verbal communication; able to translate technical complexity for executive audiences without losing the detail that matters
High ownership mindset — you treat program outcomes as your own, not someone else’s responsibility
Genuine team player who builds trust within your immediate team and across stakeholder groups alike
Nice to Have
Direct work experience in capital markets, fintech, or front office environments (order management, portfolio management, or trading systems)
Experience scaling a TPM function or standing up program management practices in a growing organization
Familiarity with DevOps practices — useful for infrastructure or platform-adjacent programs
Experience with budgeting and resource management at the program level
Familiarity with OKR/KPI frameworks and how to connect program execution to business outcomes
Technical background — prior development, platform, or systems experience, or active personal coding projects
PMP, PgMP, or equivalent certification
Who You Are
You thrive in ambiguity and build the structure others need. You ask the hard questions early, escalate with context (not just problems), and know the difference between coordinating work and owning it.
You lead with integrity. You show up for your team and your stakeholders with honesty, consistency, and a genuine desire to help them succeed — not just to check a box. You understand that trust is built through follow-through, and you take that seriously.
You are a team player in the truest sense — collaborative within your TPM team and a reliable partner to every stakeholder you work with. You bring people along rather than steamrolling, and you know that the best program outcomes happen when everyone feels heard and aligned.
You’ve operated in fast-moving environments where the org chart doesn’t tell the whole story — and you’ve figured out how to get things done anyway.
