Technical Program Manager

Qumulo's cloud data platform manages exabytes of the world's most demanding data, unifying files, objects, and every workload across edge, core, and cloud.

About the Role

Qumulo ships fast, with many new releases throughout the year, and a lot has to line up to make that happen: API work, dependent components from multiple teams, 3rd party integrations, metrics, sales, marketing, and even pricing all depend on each other.

As a TPM at Qumulo you'll own the cross-functional picture and keep things running smoothly: who's building what, internal and external dependancies, and where things are slipping before they become a problem. You'll work closely with our cloud and technology partners to line up timelines and hold external commitments on track, and manage executive stakeholders across engineering, product, and go-to-market.

This is an exciting opportunity to bring your best practices into Qumulo, work closely with our senior leadership team, and ship product fast.

As a Technical Program Manager at Qumulo, you will:

• Track deliverables and dependencies across external partners, as well as engineering, product, pricing, metrics, and marketing, and keep that cross-functional picture current
• Spot slips early, push on soft estimates, and tell a real delay from wishful thinking
• Coordinate with cloud and technology partners on timing and availability, and line up their commitments with our roadmap
• Keep epics, stories, and Jira honest and current so everyone works from the same plan
• Surface the right tradeoffs to engineering leaders when timelines collide, rather than leaving teams to sort it out one conversation at a time
• Bring structure and ownership to a critical function at Qumulo, including working closely with our executive leadership team
• Our ideal TPM will have:
• Experience running highly technical software and hardware programs with heavy cross-functional dependencies
• Familiarity with modern scrum and agile practices
• A strong anti-BS instinct, with enough technical depth to know when an estimate or a "that's hard" doesn't add up
• Background in cloud or storage, and a proven ability to pick up a complex technical domain quickly
• A genuine hunger to learn, and comfort using modern AI tools to get up to speed on unfamiliar systems fast
• Clear, direct communication with engineers and external partners alike
• The willingness to hold people to their commitments and chase down what's slipping
• The annual pay range for the role is USD $125,000 - $200,0
• 0. Individual pay depends on various factors, such as role level, relevant experience, and skills.
