Requirements
- 7+ years of experience in technical program management (or closely related roles) supporting software engineering or platform organizations.
- Proven ability to lead complex, cross-team initiatives through influence rather than authority.
- Strong technical proficiency with modern software development ecosystems, including source control, dependency management, CI/CD, developer platforms, AI & ML technologies (MLOps, Agentic AI), cloud platforms (AWS, Azure), and agile methodologies.
- Demonstrated strength in written and verbal communication, including executive-ready updates and clear, outcome-focused narratives.
- Experience operating in ambiguous problem spaces where scope, sequencing, and ownership must be actively shaped.
Responsibilities
- Own and drive cross-functional programs that reduce software supply chain risk across third-party dependencies, repositories, and identity controls.
- Take initiatives from problem definition → planning → execution → rollout → adoption → sustained outcomes.
- Align multiple teams and workstreams into a cohesive plan with clear goals, ownership, dependencies, and success criteria.
- Drive the end-to-end remediation of legacy cached dependencies that bypass modern intake controls.
- Implement a phased remediation program (baseline risk assessment → comprehensive scanning and cataloguing → continuous monitoring) with measurable completion and ongoing governance.
- Partner with platform and security, ensuring dependency controls are operationalized without degrading developer velocity.
- Close repository ownership and routing gaps across thousands of repositories and multiple GitHub organizations.
- Ensure security findings, incidents, and policy exceptions can be automatically routed to accountable owners without manual intervention.
- Improve consistency of ownership metadata and governance signals across the repo footprint.
- Support the migration to GitHub Enterprise Managed Users (EMU) as an externally directed identity governance requirement.
- Coordinate across Identity, Security, and Engineering teams to ensure user lifecycle, access controls, and auditability are aligned.
- Translate identity governance work into clear risk reduction outcomes and leadership-level reporting.
- Facilitate alignment across engineering, platform, and security teams with competing priorities.
- Proactively manage risks, dependencies, and tradeoffs; drive decisions and escalation when needed.
- Establish lightweight operating rhythms and status reporting that keep work moving and outcomes visible.
