[Hiring] Senior Program Manager @Juniper Square

Role Description

As a Senior Program Manager, PMO, you will own program management for Juniper Square’s most complex, cross-functional software initiatives, driving execution from planning through release while acting as a senior voice inside our Program Management Office (PMO). You will partner closely with engineering, product, design, QA, platform, and operations leadership to build program plans, resolve dependencies, and keep delivery on track against customer commitments.

You will act as a bridge between engineering, product management, and other cross-functional partners, translating ambiguous, high-stakes problems into a program plan that accounts for internal and external dependencies.

Beyond your own programs, you will help set the standard for how the PMO runs:

• Contributing to governance, process standardization, metrics, and how the team uses AI.
• This role carries a heavy AI focus.
• You are expected to operate at the Workflow Orchestrator level on Juniper Square’s AI fluency ladder.
• You will be looked to as the AI thought leader for the PMO organization.

What you’ll do

• Own program management for Juniper Square’s most complex, multi-team software initiatives.
• Partner with engineering, product, design, QA, platform, and operations to build program plans, resolve cross-functional dependencies, and drive execution through every stage of the software development lifecycle.
• Act as a senior bridge between engineering and product management, translating ambiguous, cross-functional problems into a concrete program plan with clear milestones, owners, and dependencies.
• Establish and evolve the execution framework (agile/scrum ceremonies, artifacts, governance cadence) for your programs.
• Provide regular, senior-leadership-ready status reporting; proactively identify, monitor, and mitigate risk.
• Contribute to PMO governance, including metrics definitions, process standardization, and adherence tracking.
• Design and deploy multi-step, AI-powered workflows that replace manual PMO coordination.
• Maintain a working library of reusable prompts, templates, and automations for high-frequency PMO work.
• Serve as an AI thought leader for the PMO org.
• Mentor and coach TPMs and PMs on day-to-day program management practice.
• Ensure program documentation, status reporting, and delivery metrics are maintained on a regular, reliable cadence.

• 15+ years of total industry experience, including 8+ years of technical program management on complex, large programs.
• Deep understanding of the product development lifecycle and technical program management at scale.
• Demonstrated AI fluency at the Workflow Orchestrator level.
• Comfortable maintaining a working library of reusable prompts, skills, or workflow templates.
• Hands-on experience automating program-management workflows with AI.
• Experience with project management tooling (Atlassian suite, Microsoft Project, Smartsheet, or equivalent) and Agile/Scrum.
• Experience partnering cross-functionally with product management, design and UX, customer success, and other functions.
• Experience with program and project governance: budgeting, vendor management, compliance, and metrics.
• Professional credentials (PMI PMP, ACP, CSM) a plus.
• Experience with fintech platforms, cloud platforms (AWS), Docker, and Kubernetes a plus.
• Self-driven and adaptable, comfortable mentoring peers.
