Full Job Description

📋 Description

• Own end-to-end release coordination for North, managing release trains, defining cadences, and ensuring smooth execution across engineering and product teams
• Drive cherry-pick and hotfix approval workflows by triaging urgency, aligning stakeholders, and shepherding changes through deployment with appropriate guardrails
• Author and manage customer-facing release communications, translating technical changes into clear, accurate updates for enterprise customers and internal stakeholders
• Establish and scale release processes that enable North’s teams to ship faster and with greater confidence as the platform grows
• Map cross-team dependencies and risks across the release pipeline, surfacing blockers early and coordinating resolution across engineering, product, and customer success teams
• Partner directly with North Leadership and Members of Technical Staff to improve release quality, velocity, and operational rigor
• Manage project tracking tools including Linear and GitHub workflows, and facilitate release planning sessions across cross-functional teams
• Respond quickly to program-level changes by clarifying scope, adjusting timelines, and marshalling the right resources when customer or market priorities shift
• Build the structure, rhythms, and visibility mechanisms that allow multiple product teams and their cross-functional partners to execute with clarity
• Operate as the program architecture backbone for an early-stage, high-visibility program with multiple workstreams in flight
• Function within a high-growth environment where you create processes from scratch rather than inherit them
• Maintain fluency in AI/ML product development and have credibility in technical conversations about dependencies and constraints without requiring translation
• Work in ambiguous, low-structure environments where pragmatic shipping outweighs perfectionism
• Influence cross-functional leaders in Finance, GTM, and engineering without formal authority to align priorities and drive outcomes
• Maintain a holistic understanding of multiple simultaneous workstreams, spotting cascading risks early and keeping parallel programs moving without losing thread
• Deliver crisp, decision-ready executive communications by distilling complex, multi-team status into clear updates for senior leadership
• Know when to escalate issues versus resolve them independently based on organizational impact
• Operate within a team focused on scaling frontier AI models for developers and enterprises building content generation, semantic search, RAG, and agent systems

🎯 Requirements

• 4+ years as an Engineering or Technical Program Manager, with experience building programs at a startup or high-growth company
• Demonstrated experience running multiple simultaneous workstreams while maintaining visibility and preventing bottlenecks
• Strong executive communication skills: ability to distill complex status into crisp, decision-ready updates for senior leadership
• Fluency with AI/ML product development and ability to engage in credible technical conversations about dependencies and constraints
• Experience creating processes from scratch in ambiguous, low-structure environments
• Cross-functional influence without authority: ability to align Finance, GTM, and engineering teams with competing priorities

🏖️ Benefits

• An open and inclusive culture and work environment
• Weekly lunch stipend, in-office lunches & snacks
• Full health and dental benefits, including a separate budget for mental health
• 100% parental leave top-up for up to 6 months
• Personal enrichment benefits for arts and culture, fitness, well-being, quality time, and workspace improvement
• Remote-flexible with offices in Toronto, New York, San Francisco, London, and Paris, plus a co-working stipend
• 6 weeks of vacation (30 working days)
