About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Own the end-to-end program management of strategic initiatives for LiveRamp’s Data Marketplace, from initial scoping and requirements through launch and post-launch optimization, ensuring clear accountability, timelines, and success criteria.
Coordinate and communicate product and engineering work across multiple teams and stakeholders (Product, Engineering, Sales, Partnerships, Operations, and Support) so everyone is aligned on priorities, milestones, and risks.
Drive the software development lifecycle for marketplace programs, including ideation, specification, prioritization, design, implementation, testing, launch, and iteration, using data to guide tradeoffs and decisions.
Partner with Product Management to translate customer, partner, and internal stakeholder needs into actionable roadmaps, well-defined program plans, and clearly documented requirements.
Build and maintain program plans, dependency maps, and risk registers for complex, cross-functional efforts (such as new marketplace capabilities, large partner integrations, and platform migrations), and keep them current and visible.
Define, implement, and monitor program health metrics (for example, delivery predictability, cycle time, defect rates, adoption/usage, and operational SLAs) and use these to drive continuous improvement.
Facilitate effective Agile ceremonies and cross-team rituals (planning, backlog refinement, standups, demos, and retrospectives) to support predictable delivery and high team engagement.
Run cross-functional incident and issue response for marketplace-impacting problems: organize triage, coordinate short-term mitigation, and ensure follow-up actions and root-cause analysis are completed.
Identify process gaps and friction points in how marketplace work gets delivered (e.g., handoffs between teams, release processes, partner onboarding workflows) and lead structured efforts to improve or redesign them.
Create and maintain concise, executive-ready status reporting for your programs, highlighting progress, risks, decisions needed, and impact against goals.
Champion best practices in program and project management across the Data Marketplace and adjacent teams, helping to standardize tools, templates, and ways of working where it adds value.
Contribute to a culture of ownership, collaboration, and inclusion by modeling our values and supporting teams through ambiguity, changing priorities, and challenging timelines.

Requirements

What you’ll need

5+ years of experience as a Technical Program Manager, Program Manager, or similar role in a software product or platform environment, delivering complex, cross-functional initiatives.
Demonstrated experience working with Agile development teams (Scrum, Kanban, or similar), including running or supporting key ceremonies and improving team processes.
Proven ability to manage programs that span multiple engineering teams and stakeholders, with clear examples of driving outcomes on schedule, scope, quality, or business impact.
Strong technical fluency—you can understand system architecture diagrams, APIs, and data flows well enough to identify dependencies, clarify requirements, and support technical decision-making.

Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with experience using metrics to measure program health, identify issues early, and guide prioritization.
Comfortable working in fast-paced, ambiguous environments; you can structure unstructured problems, create plans from incomplete information, and adapt as things change.
Experience coordinating incident response or production support efforts with engineering, support, and customer-facing teams.
Ability to manage multiple programs or workstreams at once, organize competing priorities, and keep stakeholders aligned on what matters most.
Experience in adtech, martech, data platforms, or marketplace/aggregation products is helpful but not required.
Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience.
