We are looking for a Senior Technical Program Manager to drive complex, cross organizational programs across our health portfolio.
As a Senior TPM, you are part of a global organization of security engineers, software developers, and technical program managers dedicated to continuously raising the security bar. We operate with an AI First mindset, leveraging generative AI and machine learning to scale security decisions, automate defenses, and move faster than emerging threats. You will own ambiguous, multi team initiatives end to end: defining program strategy, aligning engineering, science, legal, and product partners, and delivering measurable outcomes. You will operate at the intersection of security engineering, AI/ML, and healthcare regulation, translating fuzzy problems into crisp plans and shipping them.
Key job responsibilities
Own the lifecycle and strategy of large, complex, cross functional security programs across multiple engineering teams, from problem definition through launch and operational readiness.
Drive technical decisions and tradeoffs with engineering and applied science leaders, diving deep into architecture, threat models, and data handling design.
Build and manage program roadmaps, dependencies, and risk registers, proactively removing blockers.
Partner with Legal, Privacy, and Compliance to meet regulatory requirements such as HIPAA and related health data standards.
Champion an AI First approach, applying generative AI and automation to scale threat detection and accelerate reviews, while managing the risks AI systems introduce.
Author crisp narratives, including mechanism docs, program plans, and MBR and QBR content, for senior leadership.
Report on program metrics, tie outcomes to organization goals, contribute to OP1 and OP2 narratives, and define operational health for Tier 1 support.
Influence without authority across a VP organization, aligning senior managers, directors, and system owners with competing priorities.
Force multiply across teams, removing systemic blockers and driving simplification in engineering processes and architectures.
Eliminate excess process, creating predictable mechanisms and paths to green that raise the delivery bar.
Mentor and develop other program managers, and contribute to hiring and technical promotion assessments.
