Job description

Join a leading global digital organization in Amsterdam as a Technical Program Manager (Service Now platform) driving large, cross-functional software delivery initiatives across product, engineering, and security. This role is ideal for someone who can combine hands-on technical depth with strong program leadership-navigating ambiguity, aligning diverse stakeholders, anticipating risks, and delivering outcomes across multiple teams and workstreams.

Requirements

  • Proven experience leading large, cross-organizational software development programs
  • Strong working knowledge of Agile delivery (and blended delivery approaches), including:

  • Sprint planning, stand-ups, Scrum-of-Scrums, retrospectives
  • Backlog hygiene (epics/user stories), burndown/metrics, dependency tracking
  • Expertise building and managing integrated program plans and schedules across multiple teams and SDLC approaches
  • Strong risk, issue, and dependency management (identify, assess, track, mitigate; manage escalations and trade-offs)
  • Ability to communicate clearly and consistently with stakeholders at multiple levels (including senior leadership)
  • Strong analytical, data-driven decision-making mindset; results-oriented delivery focus
  • Ability to understand and engage with architectural/technical discussions (technical design reviews, estimating, constraints)

Nice to Have Skills

  • Experience coordinating delivery across teams with different SDLC methodologies and tooling
  • Background supporting platform services and/or enterprise-scale, global programs
  • Facilitation skills for workshops to resolve conflicts, align scope, and unblock delivery

Preferred Education and Experience

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field (or equivalent practical experience)
  • Typically 3-5+ years of relevant experience, including technical program management in software delivery environments

Other Requirements

  • Comfortable working in a fast-moving environment with competing priorities and evolving requirements
  • Ability to produce concise, high-quality program communications (status reporting, meeting outputs, stakeholder updates)
  • Ability to be on-site in Amsterdam, Netherlands

Bring your curiosity, structure, and delivery mindset-apply now to help deliver high-impact technical programs with meaningful scale and visibility. If this is what you wanted, please leave a thumbs up; if you wanted it to feel more “anonymous” (e.g., remove location/any identifying cues), leave a thumbs down with a note and I’ll revise.
