You will lead the development and execution of product strategies, from conception through launch and ongoing maintenance. You'll collaborate closely with engineering, product management, operations, and supply chain teams to align on strategic roadmaps and ensure seamless product delivery. Key responsibilities include managing product documentation, conducting phase gate reviews, collecting user feedback, and communicating project status to stakeholders and senior management. As Technical Program Manager, you will focus on optimizing processes, tools, and organizational structures to drive efficient, predictable, and scalable delivery performance.
