About the Role
Drive execution across the North America product roadmap, focusing on delivering complex, cross-functional technical initiatives. Partner with Product and Engineering leaders to translate strategy into actionable plans, manage dependencies, and ensure high-quality, on-time delivery.
Responsibilities
- Drive end-to-end execution of the North America product roadmap, ensuring alignment on priorities, timelines, and sequencing.
- Own delivery of highly complex, multi-team technical initiatives with significant dependencies across engineering, product, and regional stakeholders.
- Translate product strategy into clear, actionable program plans with defined milestones, deliverables, and success criteria.
- Partner with engineering leaders to pressure-test estimates, surface technical risk early, and hold teams accountable to commitments.
- Map and manage dependencies across teams, systems, and external partners; identify risks early and proactively drive mitigation.
- Establish and run program operating rhythms, including planning, status updates, milestone reviews, and retrospectives.
- Act as the single source of truth for program and roadmap delivery status, translating technical progress and risks into business-relevant insights for leadership.
- Define and iterate on the program management frameworks, templates, and standards that will scale as the TPM function grows.
- Drive collaboration and accountability across distributed teams, ensuring clear ownership and follow-through on every workstream.
Requirements
- Impeccable written and verbal communication, with the ability to structure complex information for technical and executive audiences.
- Strong ability to influence without direct authority and drive alignment across senior stakeholders.
- Technical fluency; comfortable reading architecture docs, understanding system trade-offs, and engaging substantively in design discussions with senior engineers.
- Deep understanding of software development lifecycles, engineering workflows, and the realities of shipping cross-functional software.
- A bias for action and outcomes, with a proactive approach to resolving ambiguity, escalating with judgment, and driving decisions forward.
- Exceptional organizational skills, with a strong grasp of timelines, milestones, and dependency management.
- Comfort operating in fast-paced, evolving environments where priorities can shift and process needs to be built as you go.
- A preference for simplifying process rather than adding it, bringing rigor where it creates leverage instead of overhead.
