Senior Technical Program Manager

About the role

Ethos, a life insurance technology company, is hiring a Senior Technical Program Manager for a fully remote US position. You will lead cross-team programs that move the business forward, from carrier integrations and partner launches to internal tooling and platform improvements, bringing structure to ambiguity and keeping many teams aligned.

Key responsibilities

• Own end-to-end delivery of cross-functional programs, from scoping and planning through launch and follow-up.
• Lead high-impact programs end to end with minimal oversight, owning the outcome rather than just the plan.
• Partner with Engineering, Product, Data, Operations and external partners to turn goals into clear plans, milestones and owners.
• Spot risks and dependencies early, raise them plainly and drive decisions instead of waiting on consensus.
• Keep program health visible with crisp written updates so leaders and teams always know where things stand.
• Dive into technical details such as architecture, integrations and data flows well enough to ask the right questions and make good trade-offs.
• Run retrospectives after every launch and feed what you learn back into how we plan and execute.

Required profile

• 5+ years of technical program management (or similar) at a technology company.
• A track record of delivering complex programs that span multiple engineering teams.
• Enough technical depth to engage with engineers on system design, APIs and integrations.
• Excellent written and verbal communication, including with senior stakeholders.
• Comfort with ambiguity and the judgment to prioritize and adjust quickly.
• Data-driven approach: defining success metrics up front and measuring against them.

Nice to have

• Experience in insurance, fintech or another regulated industry.
• Experience with partner or third-party integrations.
• Experience using AI tools to speed up planning, reporting and execution.
