Drive cross-functional execution across multiple scrum teams, ensuring clarity on priorities, roles, and outcomes.
Roadmapping & Planning
Partner with engineering leaders to develop and maintain six-quarter capability roadmaps aligned to product and business strategies.
Ensure roadmaps clearly articulate technical investments, sequencing, and tradeoffs, and track progress against evolving priorities.
Translate business and platform strategy into clear program goals, milestones, and measurable success metrics.
Define and implement repeatable frameworks and processes that improve delivery speed, quality, and scalability across programs.
Stakeholder Communication & Culture
Drive transparency through clear, actionable communication at all levels — from engineering teams to Senior Leadership.
Build trusted relationships across Product, Engineering, Customer Success, Marketing, and Business Operations to lead through change and ambiguity.
Define and implement program management best practices; coach and mentor other TPMs to raise the bar across the organization.
