If you’re energized by high standards, rapid growth, and the opportunity to help define a category at a pivotal moment, come join us! Juniper Square offers employees a variety of ways to work, ranging from a fully remote experience to working full-time in one of our physical offices. We invest heavily in digital-first operations, allowing our teams to collaborate effectively across 27 U.S. states, 2 Canadian Provinces, India, Luxembourg, and England. We also have physical offices in San Francisco, New York City, Mumbai and Bangalore for employees who prefer to work in an office some or all of the time. About your role As a Director, PMO, you will be responsible for program management across our entire engineering organization, including our largest and most strategic enterprise engagements. You will lead client-facing delivery for our most complex customers, sitting directly with executives and internal stakeholders to build project plans and drive execution in partnership with engineering, product, and go-to-market teams. You will act as a bridge between engineering leadership and our customers, building and managing a small team of program and technical program managers while staying hands-on to personally drive delivery on our highest-stakes initiatives. You’ll report directly to our Chief Development Officer and partner closely with R&D leadership to shape PMO structure, standards, and long-term team growth. In addition to the above, you will build and run a company-wide program reporting standard, including a common dashboard for R&D leadership, so every program has consistent, trustworthy visibility into status, risk, and milestones. What you’ll do • Own program management across the whole engineering organization, serving as the single point of accountability for program health across multiple engineering leaders' portfolios. • Lead client-facing delivery for our largest and most complex enterprise engagements, representing engineering directly with customers and partnering with Sales, Customer Success, and Product from pre-close through implementation and go-live. • Build and run a company-wide program reporting standard, including a common dashboard for R&D leadership, so every program has consistent, trustworthy visibility into status, risk, and milestones. • Manage and grow a team of program and technical program managers, setting the bar for program rigor, governance, and documentation across the function. • Build trusted partnerships with R&D leadership and drive cross-functional alignment so every major initiative has a program manager embedded and accountable from the start, rather than looped in late. • Partner with the Chief Development Officer and R&D lead
