Technical Program Manager
As part of your first client engagement, you will help drive the retirement, remediation, and migration of legacy applications across a large payments platform program, working closely with engineering teams to define scope and sequence the work.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Manage a portfolio of legacy application retirement and migration projects across a payments platform program
Partner with engineering and architecture teams to define disposition paths for legacy systems: retire, remediate, or migrate to new infrastructure
Bring a software engineering lens to technical scoping, sequencing, and tradeoff discussions with engineering leads
Build and maintain project plans, timelines, and dependency maps across multiple concurrent workstreams and products
Identify risks and blockers early, and drive them to resolution with the right technical and business stakeholders
Track progress against milestones and report status clearly to program leadership and client stakeholders
Coordinate across engineering, infrastructure, security, and compliance teams to keep migrations on track
Facilitate program-level ceremonies (planning, status reviews, retros) to keep teams aligned
Maintain clear documentation of application disposition decisions and migration progress
Flag scope or timeline changes early and help the team adjust plans accordingly
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
7+ years experience as a Technical Program Manager running programs involving application engineering, modernization, migration, or retirement, ideally leading multiple products or a portfolio in large organizations
Software engineering background, with enough technical depth to scope and sequence work directly with engineering teams, even if not writing code day to day
Exposure to product management, with an understanding of how technical roadmaps connect to product priorities
Experience in banking, payments, credit, debit, settlements, or another regulated financial services environment
Familiarity with cloud migration concepts and target infrastructure (AWS or similar)
Working knowledge of Agile delivery practices and tools like JIRA and Confluence
Experience managing risk, dependencies, and stakeholder communication across multiple workstreams
A clear communicator who can translate technical detail for both engineers and business stakeholders
Organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable keeping several moving parts on track at once
