[Hiring] Technical Program Manager @Greystar

Role Description

Greystar is seeking an experienced, highly technical, hands-on, and mission-driven Technical Program Manager (TPM) to lead engineering initiatives within our Digital, Data & AI team. The TPM will have a strong sense of ownership, aid in identifying and resolving dependencies, track progress across different teams, and ensure the work progresses, while clearly communicating progress and risks to project stakeholders.

This role sits at the delivery core of the Data Digital and AI team and is distinct from our Product Managers/Owners: PMs own the what and why (product direction and roadmap priorities); the TPM owns the how and when, driving execution end-to-end across engineering teams without absorbing product scope.

Success in this role requires an equal blend of hands-on technical fluency and strong project and program management discipline. Nearly every initiative brings together multiple engineering disciplines within a single project — data engineering, application/product engineering (web and mobile), and infrastructure.

Key Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end delivery for assigned initiatives, from scoping through launch, driving progress across data engineering, product engineering (web and mobile), and infrastructure teams, often within the same project.
• Partner with Product Managers to translate product strategy and roadmaps into executable delivery plans.
• Drive delivery for application-centric initiatives, including web and mobile feature launches, API/service integrations, and release coordination.
• Keep initiatives moving under competing priorities by driving stalled decisions to resolution with clear options, a recommended default, and a named owner.
• Regularly assess risks and opportunities; understand best practices, drive process improvements, and find new ways of operating.
• Run the delivery operating system in Linear, including sprint planning, dependency tracking, RACI, and status reporting.
• Drive initiatives with a heavy data component, coordinating data readiness, integration, and quality across delivery.

Qualifications

• Proven track record of managing large-scale, complex technical initiatives for product development & software engineering.
• Demonstrated ability to work through ambiguity to detailed solutions.
• Self-motivated, proactive, and proven ability to adapt well and work with teams having different operating cadences.
• Strong working knowledge of data, including the ability to read a data model and assess data quality.
• Strong working knowledge of application development, including the ability to read a system/architecture diagram.
• Experience developing processes where little exists and demonstrated flexibility to get things done.
• Proven experience leading delivery across multiple engineering disciplines.
• Detail-oriented and able to understand the bigger picture.
• Experience working in a highly cross-functional environment.
• Ability to build working knowledge quickly across unfamiliar technical areas.
• Ability to ramp up quickly and learn new technologies with minimal lag time.
• Excellent written and oral business communication and people skills.
• Experience with the Linear project management system or similar (Jira, Asana, etc).

Requirements

• The salary range for this position is $115,000 - $140,000 USD Annually.
• Many factors go into determining employee pay within the posted range including business requirements, prior experience, current skills and geographical location.

Benefits

• Competitive Medical, Dental, Vision, and Disability & Life insurance benefits.
• Generous Paid Time off: 15 days of vacation, 4 personal days, 10 sick days, and 11 paid holidays.
• 6-Week Paid Sabbatical after 10 years of service (and every 5 years thereafter).
• 401(k) with Company Match up to 6% of pay after 6 months of service.
• Paid Parental Leave and lifetime Fertility Benefit reimbursement up to $10,000.
• Employee Assistance Program.
• Critical Illness, Accident, Hospital Indemnity, Pet Insurance and Legal Plans.
• Charitable giving program and benefits.
