Key job responsibilities

Where applicable, you will also work with Principal Engineers to draw technical design/approach documents. And finally, you will work with engineering teams across the globe to own the actual product execution cycle (develop, test, and launch). Along the way, you (as the program leader) will be responsible for defining how the product roadmap is delivered (delivering value in incremental phases, or in one go), bring teams across organizations together, anticipate bottlenecks, provide escalation management, anticipate and when necessary make trade-offs by balancing the business needs versus technical constraints.
In this role you will demonstrate program management skills and be comfortable to operate at scale, and will have experience in leading large cross-functional and cross-organizational programs.
