Fully Remote Work From Anywhere Jobs

🌎 Given that we are an all-remote company and hire almost anywhere in the world, we don’t have a location requirement for this role. However, your working hours must overlap with US timezones for at least 4 hours/day.

We are looking for a Technical Program Manager to partner with engineering, product, and design leaders to drive execution of cross-functional projects. We believe in constant iteration and high agency across every role at Sourcegraph, so you’ll have the ability to build best practices and see your vision come to life. If you love to move quickly and iteratively and see programs through from inception to completion while ensuring timely, high quality delivery, this role is for you.

Within one month, you will…

• Understand the what, why, and how of the projects that your teams are working on, how those projects contribute to our company goals, as well as current status, risks, and mitigations.
• Identify areas for improvement in existing processes, and design and build processes where there are gaps.

Within three months, you will…

• Partner with engineering & product leaders to drive delivery for key initiatives and cross-functional projects.
• Drive all aspects of program management and own executing on these projects.
• Effectively communicate to ensure timelines, objectives, and expectations are clearly set.
• Ensure stakeholder alignment with set goals, and proactively identify and address risks and blockers.

Within six months, you will…

• Be embedded within several cross-company projects driving business critical impact. 
• Become the authority on operational best practices and project completion.
• Be trusted by the organization as someone who can cut through organization boundaries.

You are obsessed with running efficient processes and have a bias towards action. You’re able to leverage your technical knowledge to create clarity between teams across the org. You have a knack for juggling competing priorities and driving continuous improvement. You love bringing people together to make forward progress when people are stuck. You celebrate getting everyone past the finish line. You’re excited to have tremendous visibility and perspective into the operation of engineering and the whole business, and take the responsibility of being the single POC for these projects very seriously. Bottom line: you get stuff done and create momentum. . 

• You have 8+ years of program management experience with a highly complex technical product
• You have prior experience in a fast-growing company and/or in devtools
• You have a deep technical expertise
• You are skilled at communicating with cross-functional departments and stakeholders.
• Organizational skills are your superpower
• Your personal leadership shines through your work and you’re able to bring projects forward when there are operational bottlenecks
• You exhibit critical thinking to navigate through ambiguity
• You are self-motivated and proactive and strive for operational excellence.
• You can turn a vague problem into a detailed solution.
• You are highly skilled at asynchronous communication and documentation.
