About the role
- Own end-to-end program management across a portfolio of Marketing Technology and Growth initiatives (messaging automation platform (emails, notifications, SMS, etc), experimentation platforms, personalization, AI, analytics, SEO/AEO, data platforms).
- Translate strategic roadmaps into integrated execution plans with clear milestones, dependencies, risks, and resource alignment.

- Drive consistent execution metrics: on-time delivery, scope stability, throughput, risk burn-down, and operational readiness.
- Ensure regulatory, privacy, security, and compliance requirements are integrated early into program planning and execution.
- Manage cross-cutting AI and platform initiatives that span multiple teams and require tight coordination (data readiness, model deployment, experimentation infrastructure, observability, governance).
- Build clear executive-level narratives on portfolio health, risks, tradeoffs, and investment impact.
