Senior Technical Program Manager

In this role, you will partner with program and engineering leaders to turn team-level plans into a coherent, executable program schedule. You will identify dependencies, analyze schedule risks, facilitate planning decisions, and provide clear visibility into milestones and delivery health. This is a hands-on execution role that goes beyond tracking status-you will help teams resolve schedule conflicts, evaluate tradeoffs, and improve program predictability., * Own, develop, and maintain a credible, current integrated master schedule across multiple teams and technical workstreams.

• Establish the planning structure and operating cadence for collecting and validating team-level schedules, milestones, dependencies, resource assumptions, and delivery timelines.
• Integrate team plans into a logically connected program schedule with clearly defined milestones, dependencies, integration points, and critical paths.
• Partner with program managers, engineering leaders, systems engineers, and other stakeholders to validate assumptions, maintain alignment, and resolve cross-team dependencies as plans evolve.
• Analyze critical paths, schedule constraints, dependencies, milestone health, and emerging risks to identify delivery impacts and drive mitigation, recovery, or scenario plans.
• Establish and maintain schedule baselines, ensuring approved scope, sequencing, and timeline changes are accurately incorporated, controlled, and communicated.
• Lead recurring schedule reviews and provide decision-ready forecasts and visibility into milestones, risks, changes, and potential delivery impacts.

• 8+ years of experience in technical program management, engineering program management, program scheduling, project controls, or related discipline, including experience developing and maintaining complex integrated schedules across multiple teams.
• Hands-on experience managing milestones, dependencies, critical paths, schedule risks, baselines, and schedule changes using Microsoft Project or a comparable professional scheduling tool.
• Ability to understand complex technical workstreams and translate technical plans into executable schedule logic, supported by strong analytical, organizational, and data-quality skills.
• Experience leading schedule reviews and communicating program health, risks, tradeoffs, and recovery plans to engineering and senior leadership stakeholders, with demonstrated ability to influence without direct authority.
