Principal Technical Program Manager, Industry Software

• Drive each workstream through milestone planning, baseline, and replan cycles; ensure capability milestones, dependencies, and target dates are clearly documented and current.
• Manage the critical path and surface schedule risk early; partner with workstream tech leads to negotiate trade-offs when a milestone slips.
• Maintain the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) from workstream → capability → milestone, and keep the program schedule and goals-to-milestones mapping in sync.
• Identify and track cross-workstream dependencies (e.g., User/Identity ↔ Payments on user-payment-method association; MDM ↔ User/Identity on user authority; Golden Path ↔ every downstream workstream on the cookie-cutter service template).
• Drive stub/contract-first patterns so workstreams can move in parallel rather than serially; escalate to the Core Team when a dependency becomes a blocker.
• Run the cadence (working sessions, design reviews, integration checkpoints) needed to keep dependencies from slipping.
• Maintain the program-wide view of resourcing across all workstreams — FTE allocations, contractor placements (BairesDev, Slalom, and others), and open roles — and keep the picture current as workstreams ramp.
• Surface resource bottlenecks early: where a workstream is under-resourced for its scope, where a critical hire is gating downstream velocity (e.g., AI DX Lead, Platform SEM, workstream tech leads), and where contractor capacity is outpacing the team’s ability to absorb it.
• Partner with workstream tech leads and the hiring side of the org to coordinate onboarding of new FTEs and contractors — ensuring access, ramp plans, and first assignments are in place so people are productive in weeks, not months.
• Track contractor engagements (start dates, end dates, scope, renewal decisions) and ensure transitions in and out of the program don’t leave knowledge gaps.
• Own the Nova program Heartbeat report (biweekly written status to stakeholders) and the weekly executive roll-up — assemble inputs from workstream leads, draft, and publish.
• Maintain the RAID log (Risks, Assumptions, Issues, Dependencies) and the risk register; ensure risk owners are named, mitigation plans are current, and escalations happen on time.
• Run the Core Team cadence: agendas, decisions, action items, follow-through; make sure decisions are documented and reachable.
• Communicate program status and risks honestly — to workstream leads, the Core Team, and (where appropriate) ELT stakeholders.
• Operate the scope and schedule change control process: classify changes (within-milestone, cross-workstream, program-level), route them to the right decision authority, and document outcomes.
• Maintain the program decision log; ensure architectural and program-level decisions are recorded and accessible.
• Steward the program-management artifacts (schedule, RAID, risk register, communications plan, stakeholder register) so they remain trustworthy operating tools rather than wallpaper.
• Coach new workstream tech leads through milestone planning and the Nova program rhythm; help them produce a credible baselined milestone plan within their first 4-6 weeks.
• Identify and fix friction in the program operating model — meeting overhead, status reporting load, tooling gaps — so workstreams spend their time building, not reporting.
• Facilitate planning and timing of transitions as Nova workstreams move from dedicated (or hybrid) program staffing back into the permanent Pillars and Pods organizational structure — typically once a workstream’s initial services are production-operational and out of intensive build.
• Partner with Pillar leadership to identify the right transition point per workstream, sequence transitions so they don’t collide with Pillar BAU commitments, and confirm receiving Pods are ready (capacity, on-call, ownership clarity).
• Coordinate the handoff itself: service ownership, documentation, on-call rotations, backlog transfer, and any residual Nova-program obligations — so nothing falls between Nova and the receiving Pillar.
• Maintain a forward view of upcoming transitions in the program schedule so they are planned for, not surprises.
