Responsibilities

  • Own the rhythm of business for senior engineering leadership — designing, facilitating, and continuously improving staff meetings, leadership syncs, and working groups with a focus on outcomes and follow-through
  • Track and drive action items from leadership forums; surface blockers, escalate risks, and close commitments with accountability
  • Lead end-to-end planning of quarterly business reviews, planning cycles, and offsites — owning narrative structure and ensuring each session drives meaningful decisions

  • Lead headcount planning, fiscal budget management, space planning, and growth planning end-to-end — serving as the primary coordination point between engineering leadership, finance, and admin
  • Translate headcount, engagement, and operational data into actionable insights for senior leaders
  • Navigate complex, ambiguous organizational challenges with sound independent judgment
  • Build trusted partnerships across Engineering, Finance, People, Learning & Development, and Communications to align priorities and drive coordinated execution
  • Influence without authority — align teams with competing priorities and drive consensus on complex, multi-party decisions
  • Serve as a thought partner to senior leaders — anticipating needs, preparing them for key conversations, and providing candid, well-reasoned perspectives
  • Identify cultural gaps and org health signals through qualitative and quantitative sensing; translate findings into concrete programs spanning career development, engagement, manager effectiveness, and inclusion
  • Own employee engagement programs end-to-end — setting measurable goals, tracking outcomes, and iterating based on data
  • Own audience-tailored communication plans — town halls, leadership updates, team blogs, and internal documentation
  • Partner with senior leaders on communications strategy; translate complex engineering and organizational topics into compelling content for audiences from ICs to executives

Qualifications

  • 7–10 years as a Chief of Staff, Senior Program Manager, Senior Operations Manager, or equivalent — with demonstrated end-to-end program ownership and strong autonomy
  • Experience working directly with and influencing senior leaders in a software engineering organization
  • Proven ability to drive programs with measurable outcomes — encompassing design, implementation, and iteration, not just execution support
