Opportunities in Poland

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior Technical Program Manager based in Poland. As a Senior Technical Program Manager, you will help drive complex initiatives across a fast-moving product and engineering organisation building AI-powered technology. You will own program structure, workback plans, dependency management, operating cadences, and delivery visibility across a defined portfolio of technical programs. Your work will help engineering and product teams stay aligned while moving quickly in an AI-native environment. You will partner closely with engineering leads and product managers to deliver platform releases, integrations, migrations, and cross-functional initiatives. The role combines strong program management discipline with enough technical fluency to navigate architecture, APIs, integrations, and engineering trade-offs. You will also play an important role in shaping scalable TPM practices, templates, and operating norms. This is a remote EMEA position with regular collaboration and overlap with a London-based hub.

Establish and maintain an effective operating cadence across your area, introducing the minimum structure needed to keep teams aligned and decisions moving without unnecessary bureaucracy. Ensure key decisions are made on time, involve the right stakeholders, and are documented clearly so there is a reliable record of what was decided and why. Support recurring engineering rhythms such as planning, standups, retrospectives, and demos. Own workback plans and dependency maps for a portfolio of releases, integrations, migrations, and cross-team engineering initiatives. Maintain accurate project tracking and visibility across tools such as Linear, ensuring issues are properly labelled, estimated, assigned, and kept up to date. Provide trusted views of production issues, in-flight work, blocked items, and overall program health so stakeholders can access status without relying on additional meetings. Identify technical, delivery, and timeline risks early; challenge unrealistic assumptions and enforce readiness gates before external commitments are made. Lead complex programs end-to-end, coordinating multiple teams through scope definition, sequencing, delivery, trade-offs, and stakeholder communication. Manage cross-team dependencies and handoffs, resolving blockers directly with the relevant leads and preventing avoidable escalation to senior leadership. Apply a clear escalation framework to distinguish between programs that are on track, at risk, or require leadership decisions. Coordinate the first response to incidents and client-related interruptions within your area, ensuring issues are routed appropriately without unnecessarily disrupting engineering teams. Translate technical realities, risks, and constraints into clear updates for non-technical stakeholders, while ensuring engineering teams understand business and delivery expectations. Maintain a concise and reliable portfolio view for leadership and the wider TPM function, adapting the level of detail to the situation. Produce clear weekly written status updates that give stakeholders and leadership visibility into program progress, risks, dependencies, and decisions. Support product and engineering leaders with OKR tracking and reporting, keeping objectives and key results current and turning progress into clear, readable rollups. Contribute to the development of TPM practices, documentation, templates, cadences, and trackers that can be adopted across the wider organisation. Measure success through reliable operating rhythms, trusted program plans, timely delivery, early risk identification, reduced unnecessary escalations, and sustainable program-management practices. Requirements 6+ years of experience in Technical Program Management, ideally within AI/ML, platform infrastructure, developer tooling, or similarly technical environments. Demonstrated experience managing complex programs involving multiple teams, dependencies, and challenging external deadlines. Strong technical fluency, with the ability to understand system architecture and discuss APIs, integration design, technical dependencies, and platform trade-offs confidently without needing to be the engineer making the technical decisions. An engineering background is highly valued, particularly for candidates who have transitioned from engineering into technical program management. Strong analytical and organisational skills, with the ability to turn ambiguous requirements, incomplete specifications, and competing stakeholder perspectives into clear plans and recommended paths forward. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to provide concise executive updates, detailed dependency information for technical leads, and appropriately scaled communication depending on the audience. Strong judgment around prioritisation, escalation, risk management, and stakeholder alignment. A proactive, hands-on approach to resolving blockers and coordinating teams rather than relying on hierarchical escalation. Comfort working in a developing TPM function and contributing to the creation of processes, templates, standards, and operating norms. Experience working in a high-growth scale-up environment is a plus. Experience in an organisation that both builds infrastructure and uses that infrastructure for real customer workloads is also advantageous. Ability to work effectively in a remote environment across EMEA time zones, with regular collaboration and overlap with colleagues in London. Benefits 25 days of paid time off plus public holidays, supported by a Flexible Time Off approach. Health insurance and private medical coverage. Monthly stipend supporting wellness, fitness, and learning and development. Fully remote working from anywhere in your home country within EMEA. Enhanced parental leave for birth, adoption, or surrogacy. Access to an office in The Shard in London. Flexible working hours.
