Job Description

Roku is seeking a Senior Program Manager to lead a complex, multi‑phase Workday ATS (Applicant Tracking System) transformation spanning Workforce Planning, Recruiting, and Onboarding. This is a highly visible role operating at the intersection of People, Talent Acquisition (TA), Enterprise Applications, and executive leadership. This program involves significant change management, cross‑functional alignment, and integration across multiple systems and teams. The ideal candidate brings strong executive presence, high emotional intelligence (EQ), and the ability to navigate resistance while driving clarity, alignment, and delivery. This role partners closely with People, TA, Engineering, Finance, and an external implementation partner to deliver a scalable, end‑to‑end hiring platform. Following a successful launch, this role is expected to scale to additional programs across the People and Pay domain and, potentially, to other enterprise initiatives.

Job Responsibility

  • Own end-to-end program leadership for a multi-phase Workday ATS transformation, from planning through stabilization and optimization
  • Drive alignment across Workforce Planning, Recruiting, and Onboarding to deliver a cohesive end-state experience
  • Partner closely with People and TA leadership to navigate change, surface concerns, and build trust and momentum
  • Lead cross-functional teams across HR, TA, Enterprise Applications, Engineering, Finance, and external implementation partners
  • Establish and manage program governance, including milestones, dependencies, risks, issues, and executive reporting
  • Proactively identify risks and obstacles
  • drive decisions and resolution through structured problem-solving and influence
  • Translate complex functional and technical concepts into clear, executive-ready communications
  • Ensure integration readiness across upstream and downstream systems and processes
  • Drive disciplined change management, adoption planning, and readiness across impacted teams
  • Serve as a trusted advisor to senior leaders, bringing clarity, options, and recommendations

Requirements

  • 10+ years of experience leading large-scale, cross-functional programs, ideally in HR, People Systems, or Enterprise Applications
  • Hands-on experience with Workday Recruiting / ATS transformations or similarly complex HR technology programs
  • Working knowledge of end-to-end hiring processes, including workforce planning, recruiting, and onboarding
  • Strong understanding of how functional processes connect to technical architectures and integrations
  • Demonstrated success leading programs in environments with change resistance or competing priorities
  • Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to influence at the executive level
  • High emotional intelligence and strong stakeholder management skills
  • Proven ability to manage external implementation partners and internal delivery teams
  • Experience establishing governance, metrics, and executive-level reporting for complex programs
  • Comfortable operating with ambiguity and driving structure where none exists

Nice to have

  • Experience scaling program management practices across multiple initiatives
  • Background in People, Payroll, or broader HCM domains
  • Experience in media, technology, or high-growth environments

What we offer

  • Global access to mental health and financial wellness support and resources
  • Healthcare (medical, dental, and vision)
  • Life, accident, disability, commuter, and retirement options (401(k)/pension)
  • Time off in accordance with local leave policies
