At Reddit, Technical Program Managers use technical judgment to define and drive large programs across multiple engineering teams. They are a welcome partner to engineering leaders in project discussions impacting planning and execution.

- Lead operational excellence and continuous process improvement workstreams in partnership with Leadership in the Ads organization.
- Using technical monetization expertise, directly contribute to the strategy and roadmap of the teams you support. Ensure prioritization within your own team aligns with the wider company vision.
- Engage with cross-functional teams to identify constraints, dependencies, and coordination areas, to deliver features and programs with a high level of quality.
- Be a key driver of engineering process improvement in areas such as execution, progress tracking, and cross-functional communication.
What We Can Expect From You:
- 12+ years of software industry experience, leading large-scale technical or engineering programs and products from inception to delivery, utilizing analytical skills to understand user needs, gather requirements, and define project scope.
- 7+ years of people management experience, preferably with a geographically distributed team, that lead the delivery of technical programs or products from inception to delivery.
- 5+ years of collective experience in digital ads platforms and monetization programs.
- Experience in finding and growing talent through coaching, mentoring, and career development conversations.
- Experience operating autonomously and leading across multiple teams, with senior stakeholders in different disciplines across time zones.
- Negotiation skills in combination with effective communication experience, i.e. can translate high-level goals into tangible action plans, and vice-versa.
- Experience communicating and representing work to senior leadership and framing discussions to gain valuable feedback and experience working with technical management teams to develop systems, solutions, and products.
- Experience establishing and leading teams through multi-disciplinary relationships, including product management and engineering to drive product impact.
- Analytical problem-solving experience with large-scale systems.
