  • Ensure data quality, privacy, and compliance for AI-related telemetry and signals
  • work with stakeholders to meet all regulatory and security requirements for shipping features at scale
  • Drive execution excellence: define schedules, milestones, KPIs, and review cadences
  • track progress, manage dependencies, surface risks, and ensure on-time delivery
  • Communicate program status, insights, and blockers with leadership and stakeholders
  • clarify ownership, hold teams accountable, and cultivate durable cross-org partnerships
  • Manage program execution and stakeholder engagement across geographically distributed teams, proactively addressing time zone challenges and fostering effective communication
  • Schedule and facilitate meetings, reviews, and decision-making sessions that accommodate global team members, ensuring all voices are heard and progress remains on track

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's Degree AND 6+ years experience in engineering, product/technical program management, data analysis, or product development OR equivalent experience
  • 3+ years of experience managing cross-functional and/or cross-team projects

Nice to have:

  • 3+ years of hands-on experience with AI security, including prompt injection defenses, adversarial ML, and secure software development practices
  • Proven track record driving feature launches and large-scale rollouts in complex systems, ideally across multiple client surfaces (desktop, web, mobile)
  • Experience defining long-term program vision and strategy for security/AI projects
  • proficiency with OKRs and KPI-driven execution
  • Excellent communication, collaboration, and influence skills
  • ability to crisply communicate technical concepts to diverse audiences
