About the Role

Parloa is seeking a Senior Technical Program Manager to lead a strategic, cross-organizational program from definition through launch. This role is critical for delivering an enterprise AI platform capability across multiple engineering teams without compromising quality, reliability, or security. You will own the integrated execution plan, dependency management, launch readiness, and executive communication to ensure program success. This is a highly technical role focused on delivering outcomes and driving complex technical programs across teams without direct authority.

Responsibilities

  • Serve as the accountable leader for one strategic cross-organizational program, or two closely related programs, with clear business impact.
  • Build and maintain the integrated execution plan, including milestones, critical path, dependencies and cross-team commitments.
  • Drive end-to-end risk management by identifying leading indicators, removing blockers, tracking mitigations and escalating only when executive decisions are required.
  • Define and continuously raise the quality bar for your program by establishing objective launch criteria across functionality, reliability, security and operational readiness.
  • Lead release readiness across Engineering, Product, Platform, Security, Legal and Commercial teams, ensuring launches are based on measurable readiness rather than feature completion alone.
  • Make delivery trade-offs explicit. Where timelines require compromises, ensure decisions are documented, owned by the appropriate stakeholders and supported by clear mitigation plans.
  • Drive executive decision-making through concise written narratives, data and clear recommendations, replacing fragmented status reporting with a trusted source of truth.
  • Define and monitor delivery metrics that enable objective decisions around scope, schedule, quality and execution risk.
  • Build lightweight mechanisms that improve planning, dependency management and execution across teams, leaving the organization stronger after the program completes.
  • Influence technical and organizational decisions without direct authority, aligning engineering, product and business stakeholders around shared outcomes.

Requirements

  • 7+ years of Technical Program Management experience, or equivalent experience leading large-scale technical programs with software engineering teams.
  • Proven experience delivering complex cross-functional programs from definition through launch across organizations you did not directly manage.
  • Experience leading release readiness for production systems, including defining objective launch criteria and driving launch decisions.
  • Strong track record of identifying delivery risk early, driving mitigation plans and making effective escalation decisions.
  • Sufficient technical depth to engage credibly with senior engineers on architecture, rollout strategies, system dependencies and engineering trade-offs.
  • Experience defining program metrics and using data to guide execution and executive decision-making.
  • Exceptional written communication skills. You can distill a complex technical situation into a clear one-page narrative for senior leadership.
  • Experience delivering AI, machine learning or LLM-powered products at scale, ideally in a high-growth engineering organization.
  • Experience building program management mechanisms that became durable organizational practices.
  • Make sound decisions in ambiguous situations, balancing imperfect information with the need to keep the organization moving.
  • Learn quickly. You have successfully developed deep expertise in unfamiliar technical domains and enjoy mastering new technologies.
  • Move quickly without lowering standards, making pragmatic decisions while ensuring quality, reliability and security remain deliberate choices rather than accidental outcomes.
  • Challenge assumptions with evidence, communicate difficult messages constructively and fully support decisions once they are made.
  • Introduce only the amount of process necessary. Your mechanisms reduce organizational friction rather than create it.
