About the role

Management role leading portfolio delivery and operations for G&A Solutions Engineering, responsible for strategy, execution, governance, and operational excellence across a cross-functional, global portfolio within Apple’s G&A technology function.

Responsibilities

  • Lead and develop a high-performing team of EPMs, setting clear goals, coaching for growth, and fostering a culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
  • Own end-to-end portfolio delivery across multiple concurrent programs, driving accountability, removing blockers, and maintaining momentum in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment.
  • Partner with senior leadership to drive annual and quarterly planning cycles, translating organizational priorities into executable roadmaps, milestones, and resource plans.
  • Define, implement, and continuously improve PMO processes, governance frameworks, and delivery standards that create consistency and scale across teams and programs.
  • Establish and maintain intake, prioritization, and capacity planning frameworks that enable disciplined portfolio management and ensure the organization is investing in the right work at the right time.

  • Develop and maintain portfolio-level dashboards, metrics, and executive status reporting that synthesize complex information into clear, actionable insights for all levels of the organization.
  • Manage budgets and resource forecasts across multiple teams; partner with finance and senior leadership to track actuals, flag variances early, and optimize allocation across the portfolio.
  • Serve as a trusted partner and single point of accountability for portfolio health, delivery commitments, and escalation paths; build strong working relationships across engineering, product, operations, legal, and finance.
  • Influence without direct authority across engineering, operations, and senior management, driving alignment and decisions through credibility, structured communication, and collaborative problem-solving.
  • Champion operational excellence across both the PMO and portfolio delivery functions, continuously raising the bar on delivery predictability, team efficiency, and organizational maturity.
