About the Role:
We're looking for a high-ownership, high-performing Program Manager to own cross-functional programs across our internal tooling, IT and security systems, and vendor landscape. You will translate cross-functional requirements into clear project plans, you'll keep stakeholders updated through timely and clear status updates, and you'll ensure projects and programs deliver successfully and on-time with tight alignment across teams. Your work will directly support the efficiency and efficacy of the entire company as we rapidly scale. You're equally comfortable running a tight program review and building the automation that makes the next review run itself.
This is a high-ownership role with real surface area from day one. You'll report into the Internal Systems team and partner directly with every function at Stord.
What You'll Do:- Run the programs that keep Stord's systems healthy. Own planning, execution, and reporting for cross-functional Internal Systems initiatives - from tooling rollouts to system migrations to process redesigns.
- Create structure & accountability across teams. Translate high-level integration goals into detailed project roadmaps, charters, RACIs, and workflows that create momentum across teams.
- Build automation first. Identify manual, repetitive internal work and replace it with automation, workflows, and AI agents. Treat "add a person" as the last resort, not the default.
- Keep the operating rhythm. Run the recurring reviews, dashboards, and status communications that give leadership a clear, current view of Internal Systems health.
- Support the compliance evidence process and cadence. Partner with Security and Finance to keep our SOC controls, evidence collection, and audit calendar continuously on track, so audit readiness is a steady state.
- Build the Internal Systems playbook. Bring structure and follow-through to the Internal Systems function, and help set the standards, playbooks, and documentation the team will run on.
- Manage Cross-Functional Execution: Partner with leaders across the business to align on priorities, remove roadblocks, and push execution forward.
- Ensure executive and stakeholder visibility. Maintain crisp project documentation and dashboards, and inform all stakeholders, including senior leadership, on progress and escalations.
What We're Looking For:- 5+ years in program management or a closely related field - at a fast-growing technology company.
- A track record of running cross-functional programs end to end, with the organization and follow-through to keep many threads on schedule.
- Hands-on experience coordinating integrations across a modern software stack
- Experience managing vendors, contracts, and renewal cycles.
- An automation-first instinct - you've used scripts, no-code/low-code tools, or AI to eliminate manual work, and you're eager to do more of it.
- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to distill complexity and communicate with clarity and precision.
- Obsessive attention to detail with a high bar for execution, follow-through, and the quality of your own work product.
