Role Overview
We’re looking for a hands-on Technical Program Manager who can operate as an extension of the CTO — driving day-to-day engineering execution while staying close to the technical details. This role blends technical leadership, program management, and team coordination. You’ll help translate vision into action, ensuring that engineering initiatives move efficiently from concept to delivery.
Responsibilities
Day-to-Day Engineering Management: Partner with the CTO to run daily engineering operations — track deliverables, resolve blockers, and ensure progress across multiple projects.
Hands-On Technical Involvement: Review architecture and code where needed, help debug issues, and support integration/testing to keep velocity high.
Project Execution: Own timelines, sprint cycles, and resource planning for AI, computer vision, and software engineering programs.
Technical Coordination: Bridge communication between the CTO and engineering leads; ensure technical decisions are documented and followed through.
Process & Tools: Maintain efficient development workflows (JIRA, GitHub, CI/CD) and continuously refine team processes for speed and quality.
Cross-Functional Alignment: Work closely with Product and Design to translate priorities into actionable engineering tasks.
Quality & Delivery: Ensure technical deliverables meet design intent, performance, and reliability standards.
Reporting & Transparency: Provide clear visibility into status, risks, and dependencies across all engineering efforts.
Qualifications
6+ years of experience in engineering or technical program management, ideally in startup or high-velocity environments.
Strong technical background — capable of reading and understanding code, system architecture, and ML pipelines.
Proven success driving complex technical programs end-to-end, from planning to production.
Solid understanding of modern software practices (Agile, DevOps, CI/CD).
Excellent organizational and communication skills; able to keep teams aligned and focused under pressure.
Comfortable working directly with executive leadership and small, fast-moving teams.
Experience in AI/ML, computer vision, or large-scale data systems.
Prior hands-on software development experience (Python, C++, or similar).
Familiarity with LLM/VLM development, model integration, or cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP/Azure).
