Drive a culture of continuous improvement, iterating on products based on user feedback, market trends, and evolving business needs.

What You’ll Need:

  • Bachelor’s Degree in a quantitative field (e.g., Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, Statistics, Business), related technical field or equivalent work experiences. Master’s degree in business or quantitative field preferred.
  • 7+ years experience in technical program management or similar experience managing cross functional projects and balancing product/business requirements with technical constraints.
