Job Description

About the role and team

Leading in a high-growth environment means setting direction in motion, not waiting for perfect conditions. As a Technical Program Manager II, you will drive high-impact, complex technical initiatives that support critical platform foundations-from data systems to the foundational infrastructure that powers global operations. This is a role for a strategic operator who can turn technical complexity into operational reality, whether managing global capacity for a high-volume platform or leading the adoption of new technologies.

You will navigate a fast-moving, high-stakes environment where you will need to make decisions with imperfect information and stay resilient through the challenges of scaling systems. You will lead cross-functional teams across Engineering, Product, and Data Science to solve problems that do not come with a playbook. If you lead with clarity, thrive in technical challenges, and are motivated to build solutions that impact the real world-this is where you will make your mark.

Rate of Pay: $153,000 to $187,000 per Year
