ABOUT THIS ROLE
The Senior Technical Program Manager will work with our Ad Tech and Marketing technology teams to help execute the technical strategy and roadmap for AdTech and Marketing Content systems that power personalized communications. You will work closely with Software Development Managers (SDMs) and Software Development Engineers (SDEs) to organize and plan new development and enhancement work.

You thrive at the heart of the action. At work, change is the only constant – and you wouldn’t have it any other way. Transparency and consistency define your communication skills. You see the bigger picture, letting it guide you, from project risks to retrospectives. “Meticulous” doesn’t do justice to your critical eye. You’re looking for the balance of an energizing start-up culture with the influence of a global e-commerce leader.

As a Senior Technical Program Manager, you will…
- Collaborate with various areas of the business to manage multiple projects effectively
- Partner closely with stakeholders and product managers to ensure successful software development launches from design to deployment
