That means designing our operating rhythm, running cross-layer programs from hardware through software, leading the change it takes for new practices to stick, and giving leadership a clear, trusted read on delivery and release health. You'll partner closely with a Release Manager, who runs the release system day to day.\nThis job is fully remote work on a weekly basis. There are 1-2 day in-person meet-ups with the team approximately every 2 months. We want someone located in the Toronto area, but is willing to work remotely.\nWhat you'll do\nOwn engineering program health across hardware, firmware, app and cloud, and report out on delivery and release health to leadership.\nBuild and own the timelines for software and firmware deliverables on new product introductions (NPI), mapping them to hardware milestones and manufacturing builds so nothing gates a launch.\nDesign, document and roll out our agile operating rhythm: sprint planning, standups, reviews, retros and backlog refinement, with clear definitions of ready and done.\nLead change management for every new practice. Build the plan, bring teams along, train them, measure adoption and follow through until it sticks.\nRun weekly delivery checkpoints, quarterly planning and capacity planning in Jellyfish.\nOwn Jira project and board structure, JPD and our tooling integrations.\nOwn the cross-functional launch plan for new devices and major features.\nCoordinate with our offshore engineering teams across time zones.\nCatch the misses. Track risks, issues and dependencies across programs, escalate early, and drive them to resolution.\n\nWhat success looks like\nIn 30 days, you've mapped how work really moves today and agreed the operating model gaps with leadership.\nBy 90 days, a documented sprint playbook is live with at least two teams, and leadership gets a regular delivery and release health report.\nBy six months, teams follow a shared operating rhythm, NPI timelines are tracked against hardware gates, and adoption of new practices is measured.\nRequirements\nWhat you bring\n6+ years in technical program management or delivery management, ideally at a small or fast-moving product company. Wearables or connected devices strongly preferred.\nExperience running programs that span hardware, firmware and software, where milestones have to line up.\nStrong working knowledge of SDLC workflows in Jira and Git. You don't need to write code, but engineers trust your read on technical risk.\nDeep experience running Scrum/Kanban or similar practices across multiple teams, and coaching teams through them.\nA track record of leading change: you've rolled out a new process, measured whether people adopted it, and adjusted when they didn't.\nExperience building delivery and program health metrics that leadership actually uses.\nExperience working with distributed or offshore engineering teams.\nNice to have\nExperience with hardware lifecycle gates (EVT, DVT, PVT) and contract manufacturer builds.\nExperience administering Jira, JPD or Jellyfish.\nBenefits\nWhat We Offer\nCompetitive salary and benefits including 100% employer paid supplemental medical policy \nRemote working environment\nAn opportunity to make a significant impact in a fast-growing company\nGenerous PTO\nCollaborative, creative, and supportive work environment","description_format":"text","description_chars":3369,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Canada","iso":"CA","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":[],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-07T22:40:01Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":3,"expected_fill_days":29,"reasons":["conf:1","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-08T00:34:46Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/cosmo-together-senior-technical-program-manager-engineering-programs","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/cosmo-together-senior-technical-program-manager-engineering-programs.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-08T00:34:46Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":1287,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-09T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":2200805},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=2200805"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fcosmo-together-senior-technical-program-manager-engineering-programs"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fcosmo-together-senior-technical-program-manager-engineering-programs"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fcosmo-together-senior-technical-program-manager-engineering-programs"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/cosmo-together-senior-technical-program-manager-engineering-programs\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fcosmo-together-senior-technical-program-manager-engineering-programs"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3928689}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"cosmotogether.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3928689},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
