(Senior)Technical Program Manager

As (Senior) Technical Program Manager, you’ll own project management across a diverse set of programs from customer-facing commitments and requirements to grant-funded projects and internal cross-functional initiatives. You’ll build and run the project management system: processes, planning, reporting, risk management, and delivery rhythm. 

You will partner closely with Engineering Leads and engineers, Product, Operations, and leadership to ensure we hit milestones, communicate clearly, and deliver reliably. 

 

What You’ll Do 

  • Own delivery across multiple project types, including: 

    • customer requirements, delivery timelines, and deployment commitments 

    • internal cross-functional programs  

    • grant-funded projects (milestones, reporting, compliance coordination) 

  • Highly comfortable operating in an Agile environment and navigating ambiguity:
    • thrive in fast-moving, iterative teams, proactively create clarity from incomplete information, and bring structure and accountability without unnecessary bureaucracy.

 

  • Define and implement SpiNNcloud’s project management processes 

    • project intake and prioritization 

    • stage gates / milestone planning 

    • dependency management across teams 

    • change control and scope management (especially for customer commitments) 

 

  • Drive execution rigor 

    • run project kick-offs, weekly cadences, milestone reviews, and retros 

    • follow up with teams on deliverables, timelines, and accountability 

    • proactively surface risks, blockers, and trade-offs with mitigation plans 

 

  • Create clean reporting 

    • build lightweight dashboards and executive summaries (status, risks, ETA confidence) 

    • maintain a single source of truth for program status across the company 

 

  • Improve cross-functional communication 

    • translate between technical and non-technical stakeholders 

    • ensure customer-facing teams have clear delivery narratives and timelines 

 

 

What We’re Looking For 

  • 4+ years in technical project/program management, owning delivery across cross-functional engineering teams (hardware, software, systems, or platform environments). 

  • Customer-facing delivery experience: proven ability to manage external commitments (requirements, timelines, scope changes), align stakeholders, and communicate clearly with customers/partners. 

  • Demonstrated ability to design and operationalize project management processes in a scaling organization (intake, prioritization, governance, cadence, reporting). 

  • Strong track record of driving complex, dependency-heavy programs to completion balancing speed, quality, and stakeholder alignment. 

  • Strong execution mindset with comfort in ambiguity: you bring structure, clarity, and accountability without unnecessary bureaucracy. 

  • Excellent stakeholder management: able to push for decisions, surface trade-offs, manage expectations, and negotiate scope and resources. 

  • Familiarity with Jira, Agile and Scrum. 

 

 

Preferred Experience 

  • Exposure to HPC, AI infrastructure, or deep-tech products. 

  • Experience with EU-funded or other public funded programs.
