The primary mission of this role is to create a clear, reliable operating rhythm that enables visibility, alignment, and predictable execution across multiple parallel initiatives.

• Remote work from the US (East Coast preferred) or Europe.

• Structure initiatives into clear workstreams with defined timelines and accountable owners.
• Establish and run weekly and monthly planning and review cadences.
• Track cross‑functional milestones, risks, and dependencies, escalating issues early.
• Provide clear, objective reporting and concise executive summaries for leadership.
• Align stakeholders across Growth, Product, Marketing, Partnerships, and Sales on priorities and deliverables.
• Translate discussions into documented action items, owners, and deadlines.
• Clarify scope, prevent initiative drift, and support structured decision‑making.
• Lead select cross‑functional projects with defined scope, milestones, and success metrics.
• Create and maintain a trusted portfolio dashboard that enables leadership visibility at a glance.
• Standardize reporting and portfolio management processes to ensure predictability and transparency.
• Reduce ambiguity across workstreams by driving clarity in scope, ownership, and timelines.
• Proactively surface risks early to minimize last‑minute escalations.
• Ensure cross‑functional initiatives progress against defined milestones with structured, transparent execution.

Requirements

• 7+ years in Project Management, Program Management, Strategy and Operations, or similar roles in B2B tech.
• Strong experience managing cross‑functional initiatives with Sales, Marketing, Product, and Engineering stakeholders.

• Excellent written communication skills – concise briefs, status reports, and structured updates.
• Strong organizational discipline and attention to detail.
• Ability to operate in a fast‑moving environment with multiple parallel priorities.
• A structured and methodical working style.
• Ability to bring order to complex, ambiguous environments.
• Comfort following up consistently and holding stakeholders accountable to timelines.
• Low ego, collaborative approach with high execution discipline.

Preferred Qualifications (Bonus)

• Strong proficiency with AI tools and AI agent development platforms (e.g., Claude CoWork/Code, Cursor, etc.), with the ability to act as an automation builder and agent orchestrator to unlock meaningful operational leverage across verticals.
• Experience in cloud, AI infrastructure, or enterprise technology.
• Experience working in a matrix organization across geographies.
• Familiarity with portfolio management tools and reporting frameworks.
