Job Description

seeking a Sr. Technical Program Manager to lead the highest-impact, largest-scale delivery programs. Responsibilities include collection of business and systems requirements from internal and external customers, writing specifications, driving project schedules from design to release, and managing the production launch.

Our team drives complex business problems, leveraging both company-wide platform solutions as well as designing them from the ground up where they don’t exist.

We build global technology solutions, going beyond localization to customize programs to the logistics and e-commerce standards in each country where we operate.

Not only must our software scale, but it must adapt to regions ranging from downtown Tokyo to remote Alaska.

You will lead and coordinate design / implementation efforts between internal teams and outside merchants and vendors to develop optimal solutions.

You will be expected to make appropriate tradeoffs to optimize time-to-market, and clearly communicate goals, roles, responsibilities, and desired outcomes to internal cross-functional and remote project teams.

The right candidate will possess a strong program management background, will have demonstrated experience leading medium to large projects, and will have a well-rounded technical background in current web technologies.

You must be able to thrive and succeed in an entrepreneurial environment, and not be hindered by ambiguity or competing priorities.

This means you are not only able to develop and drive high-level strategic initiatives but can also roll up your sleeves, dig in, and get the job done.

As a Sr. TPM, you will anticipate bottlenecks, provide escalation management, anticipate and make tradeoffs, and balance the business needs versus technical constraints.

An ability to take large, complex projects and break them down into manageable pieces, develop functional specifications, and then deliver them in a successful and timely manner is expected.

Maturity, high judgment, negotiation skills, ability to influence, analytical talent and leadership are essential to success in this role.
