Remote Opportunity of Technical Program Manager with Cyber Security, infra, AI and DeVops
Job Title: Technical Program Manager with Cyber Security, infra, AI and DeVops Location: Remote- USA Mode of Hire: Contract Job Description: Role Summary
- A Technical Program Manager drives complex, cross-team technical programs that require deep coordination across Client ADAPT engineering domains (AI, Data, Platform, Infrastructure, SRE, End User Computing). TPMs partner closely with engineering & product leadership to deliver initiatives where architecture, integration, reliability, performance, and technical trade-offs are central to success.
- TPMs are expected to be technically fluent (able to understand system design, APIs, data flows, reliability constraints), while remaining primarily accountable for program execution, cross-functional alignment, and outcomes. They will partner closely with technical leads to drive the technical implementation plans and roadmaps.
- TPMs must be able to work in a complex environment with matrixed teams and organizations. TPMs must provide project/program visibility to technical and business stakeholders around key projects, status, risks, and post-launch metrics.
Scope & Typical Programs Multi-team, multi-quarter initiatives with significant dependencies and ambiguity Examples: o New platform capability or shared service rollout (platform + infra + SRE) o AI/ML model lifecycle program (data pipelines, feature stores, deployment, monitoring) o Reliability/resiliency initiatives (SLOs, incident reduction, scaling, DR) o Data architecture migration (Data Fabric, governance, lineage, BI tooling) o Major internal developer platform improvements (CI/CD, observability, golden paths) o Technical integration for newly acquired / merged companies o Platform migrations and data center decommissions
Key Responsibilities
Program strategy & planning Define program objectives, success metrics, scope boundaries, and sequencing. Build an integrated roadmap across teams; manage critical path and trade-offs. Technical coordination Translate business goals into technical milestones and engineering deliverables. Drive integration plans across services, APIs, data contracts, and environments. Ensure non-functional requirements are planned: reliability, scalability, security, privacy, cost, and observability. Execution leadership Establish operating cadence across internal & dependent teams (working session, project reviews, milestone reviews, launch readiness, go/no-go). Anticipate bottlenecks; negotiate sequencing and resourcing with engineering leaders. Own RAID management and escalation with options and recommendations. Release & operational readiness Drive launch plans, cutovers, feature flags, rollback strategies, and runbooks. Partner with SRE/Infra to ensure monitoring, alerting, SLOs, and on-call readiness. Stakeholder management Align engineering, product/business, security/compliance, and operations. Communicate progress and trade-offs clearly to leadership; maintain a decision log. A TPM consistently: Drives cross-team execution without relying on escalation as the primary lever. Makes ambiguity smaller: produces clear charters, milestones, and dependency maps. Understands enough technical detail to: o Ask the right questions o Surface integration risks early o Identify missing work (e.g., telemetry, data backfills, DR, access controls) Anticipates and manages systemic risks (migration complexity, reliability debt, data quality). Ships with operational excellence: readiness reviews, runbooks, SLOs, post-launch validation. Skillset Requirements Required Strong program management fundamentals (project planning, dependency mapping, RAID, stakeholder management). Technical fluency: system design concepts, APIs, data flows, environments, CI/CD concepts. Experience driving cross-team software/platform/infrastructure programs. Comfort with ambiguity and technical trade-offs; can facilitate decisions. Preferred Experience with AI/ML or data platforms. Familiarity with SRE practices (SLO/SLI, incident management, observability). Experience with large migrations, platform modernization, or reliability programs. Boundaries (What This Role Is Not) Not the engineering manager or architect-of-record (but influences and unblocks). Not a "Jira admin" whose primary output is tickets; outcomes and alignment come first. Success Measures Milestones met with predictable delivery and transparent trade-offs. Reduced integration surprises; fewer late-stage scope discoveries. Launches meet reliability/security/operational readiness standards. Stakeholders report high trust, clarity, and reduced coordination overhead. PSRTEK is a reputed technology recruitment and IT staffing brand with a global footprint and an admired client base.
