Program Manager 1

Remote, USA Full-time Posted 2026-06-18

We’re not just building better tech. We’re rewriting how data moves and what the world can do with it. With Confluent, data doesn’t sit still. Our platform puts information in motion, streaming in near real-time so companies can react faster, build smarter, and deliver experiences as dynamic as the world around them.

It takes a certain kind of person to join this team. Those who ask hard questions, give honest feedback, and show up for each other. No egos, no solo acts. Just smart, curious humans pushing toward something bigger, together.

One Confluent. One Team. One Data Streaming Platform.

About the Role:

We are seeking an early career professional for the position of Program Manager I. The ideal candidate will have strong communication skills, be well-versed in Agile project management methodologies such as Scrum and Kanban, and possess abilities in stakeholder management, risk management, and change management.

What You Will Do:
  • Manage projects that have clearly defined scopes and range from low to medium complexity.

  • Facilitate Agile ceremonies such as stand-ups, planning sessions, refinements, retrospectives, and others.

  • Utilise appropriate metrics to track and report project progress accurately.

  • Ensure transparent communication across cross-functional teams regarding progress and outcomes.

  • Proactively identify, raise, and resolve impediments to manage delivery risks effectively and in a timely manner.

  • Facilitate discussion leading to collective decision-making, goal setting and conflict resolution within the team.

  • Motivate and enable Agile teams to be self-organised.

What You Will Bring:
  • A minimum of 2 years of experience in project management or within a technology-related field.

  • Exceptional communication skills are required for effective collaboration and stakeholder management.

  • Relevant certifications such as Certified Scrum Master (CSM), Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM), or Project Management Professional (PMP) is definitely a plus.

  • A Bachelor's degree or higher in a related discipline.

Ready to build what's next? Let’s get in motion.
