We are seeking a Senior Program Manager to drive planning, coordination, and execution across Product, Domain, and Engineering teams for our client faced program. This role is critical to ensuring delivery actually happens—connecting strategy to execution, maintaining alignment across multiple concurrent workstreams, and enabling teams to move quickly and effectively in a complex, integration-heavy environment.

The Senior Program Manager will be responsible for managing delivery across platform configuration, system integration, data dependencies, and operational readiness activities, ensuring that all workstreams remain synchronized and aligned to program milestones. This role requires direct involvement in tracking dependencies across technical and functional teams, identifying risks early, and driving resolution before issues impact delivery timelines or system performance.

The ideal candidate is a strong operator who thrives in complex environments, brings structure without bureaucracy, and proactively drives decisions and issue resolution. This individual must be comfortable operating in fast-paced delivery settings with evolving requirements, multiple stakeholders, and tightly coupled system and process dependencies, ensuring that execution remains disciplined and outcomes are consistently achieved.

Key Responsibilities
Program Planning & Execution
  • Drive integrated program planning across Product, Domain, and Engineering teams, ensuring alignment across multiple concurrent workstreams including platform configuration, system integration, data dependencies, and operational readiness
  • Translate delivery strategy and priorities defined by the Managing Director into executable plans, timelines, and deliverables across all teams
  • Develop and maintain integrated delivery plans that clearly define milestones, dependencies, sequencing, and ownership across technical and functional workstreams
  • Ensure consistent execution against milestones and commitments by actively tracking progress, identifying deviations early, and driving corrective actions across teams
  • Coordinate delivery sequencing to ensure that upstream activities (e.g., requirements, configuration, integration) are completed in a manner that supports downstream activities such as testing, deployment, and operational readiness

Cross-Functional Coordination
  • Manage cross-team dependencies across Product, Engineering, Domain, Data, and Integration workstreams, ensuring that interdependent activities are sequenced correctly and no workstream progresses without required upstream inputs
  • Identify, track, and manage cross-team dependencies, including those related to system integration, data flows, configuration sequencing, and testing readiness, ensuring no workstream progresses in isolation
  • Proactively coordinate across teams to resolve misalignment between business requirements, technical implementation, and delivery timelines, preventing rework and downstream delays
  • Facilitate regular program cadences (standups, sprint reviews, planning sessions, dependency reviews), ensuring discussions are action-oriented and result in clear decisions, ownership, and next steps
  • Ensure that outputs from one team (e.g., requirements, configurations, integrations) are complete, validated, and ready for downstream teams, maintaining continuity across the delivery lifecycle

Issue & Risk Management
  • Establish and enforce a structured issue and risk management process (e.g., RAID tracking), ensuring all issues and risks are clearly documented, owned, prioritized, and actively managed through resolution
  • Ensure issues are identified early across workstreams, particularly those related to system integration, data dependencies, configuration gaps, and misalignment between business requirements and technical implementation
  • Maintain clear visibility into issue status, impact, and resolution progress, ensuring transparency across teams and preventing unresolved items from impacting downstream activities
  • Drive rapid resolution of issues by coordinating across Product, Engineering, and Domain teams, removing blockers, and ensuring clear accountability for follow-through
  • Escalate risks and blockers appropriately with clear context, impact assessment, and actionable recommendations, enabling timely decision-making by leadership
  • Monitor recurring or systemic issues (e.g., repeated defects, integration failures, or requirement gaps) and take corrective action to prevent ongoing disruption to delivery

Stakeholder Communication
  • Support stakeholder engagement through clear, consistent communication, ensuring alignment across program leadership, technical stakeholders, and business teams on delivery status, priorities, and decisions
  • Prepare program updates, status reports, and executive briefings that clearly communicate progress against milestones, key risks, dependency impacts, and required decisions
  • Ensure transparency on progress, risks, and decisions by maintaining accurate and timely reporting across all workstreams, including visibility into integration status, testing readiness, and delivery health
  • Translate complex technical and delivery topics into clear, actionable updates for non-technical stakeholders, enabling informed decision-making
  • Support coordination of stakeholder meetings and governance forums, ensuring discussions are structured, outcomes are documented, and follow-up actions are tracked to completion

Decision Enablement
  • Drive timely decision-making by clearly surfacing tradeoffs, risks, and impacts across workstreams, including implications to timeline, scope, integration dependencies, and downstream processes
  • Facilitate alignment across Product, Engineering, and Domain stakeholders, ensuring decisions are made with full context and documented for execution
  • Remove blockers and prevent delays through proactive problem-solving, coordinating across teams to resolve issues before they impact delivery milestones
  • Identify decision points early in the delivery lifecycle and ensure the right stakeholders are engaged to avoid bottlenecks or rework

Delivery Execution & Accountability
  • Execute delivery plans in alignment with program strategy defined by the Managing Director, ensuring all teams are working toward consistent goals and timelines
  • Reinforce accountability across Product, Engineering, and Domain teams by tracking ownership of deliverables, following up on commitments, and ensuring timely completion of assigned work
  • Track delivery health, KPIs, and progress against goals across all workstreams, including visibility into dependencies, risks, and execution status
  • Monitor alignment between planned delivery and actual progress, identifying gaps and driving corrective actions to maintain schedule and quality
  • Escalate delivery risks, blockers, and decision points to the Managing Director when resolution requires executive input or impacts program-level outcomes

Qualifications
  • U.S. citizenship is required. Must be eligible to obtain and maintain a Public Trust clearance.
  • 10+ years of program or project management experience in technology or software delivery environments, with direct involvement in executing enterprise system implementations or platform-based solutions
  • Proven experience coordinating cross-functional teams (Product, Engineering, Business/Domain), including active management of dependencies across multiple concurrent workstreams
  • Strong track record of driving execution in complex, multi-workstream programs involving system configuration, integration, data dependencies, and testing activities
  • Experience implementing and enforcing structured issue and risk management processes including escalation of critical risks with clear impact assessment and resolution tracking
  • Demonstrated ability to manage delivery in environments with tightly coupled technical and functional dependencies, ensuring alignment between business requirements and system implementation
  • Experience working in Agile delivery environments, including participation in sprint planning, backlog refinement, and delivery tracking across engineering teams
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to engage both technical and non-technical stakeholders, including translating delivery risks and technical issues into actionable insights
  • Highly organized and execution-focused, with the ability to manage multiple priorities, track detailed progress, and ensure accountability across teams
  • Ability to operate effectively in fast-paced, ambiguous delivery environments with evolving requirements and competing stakeholder priorities

Preferred Experience
  • 10+ years of experience working with government clients or in regulated industries, with exposure to compliance-driven delivery environments
  • Background in lending, grants, or financial platforms, with familiarity with lifecycle processes such as underwriting, servicing, or financial reporting
  • Experience supporting delivery of systems that integrate with financial systems, payment platforms, or identity/access systems
  • Experience working in high-growth or startup environments where delivery teams are scaling rapidly and processes are evolving in parallel
