**About the Role:**

+ Ensure we can deliver projects on time, regularly communicating progress and status to key stakeholders.

+ Proactively identify and resolve roadblocks/challenges affecting projects.

+ Train and help other leaders to become better in program management.

+ Make technical decisions to keep projects running smoothly.

+ Work with Engineering, Product, and Security leadership to streamline and drive projects on a predictable schedule.

+ Run cross-functional meetings and drive decision-making around schedule adjustments, bug triage, and internal and external partner/customer delivery.

+ Take ownership of engaging with various engineering and product stakeholders to drive E2E execution, including understanding potential risks and alignment models for competing priorities.

+ Help the Kafka team understand the priorities of other dependent teams, both upstream and downstream, to unblock their roadmap needs.

**What You Will Bring:**

+ Strong technical skills especially knowledge of cloud networking fundamentals.

+ Prior TPM experience, a minimum of 2 years, in driving end-to-end lifecycle of complex and massive projects across organizations.

+ Experience driving cloud platform engineering cross-functional projects is a big plus.

+ Experience driving operations across teams is also a big plus.

+ Strong communication, interpersonal and leadership skills to work with engineering and non-technical stakeholders.

+ Experience in highly agile environments applying JIRA reporting and sprint planning is a big plus.

+ Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
