Upstream, you're working with Product Managers, Engineering, and Design to keep committed work moving, dependencies visible, and slippage caught early. Downstream, you're making sure Marketing has positioning, Support knows what's changing, Sales can sell it, and customers hear about it the day it goes live.\nMost project management roles are one or the other. This one is deliberately both, because the handoffs between them are where things fall apart.\nYou'll take initiatives that start as a paragraph and a target quarter, break them into a plan people can act on, and keep a distributed group of teams moving in the same direction until it's out the door. This role is for someone energized rather than frustrated by ambiguity - you'll frequently be the person who turns \"we're doing this next quarter\" into a sequenced plan with owners and dates, and then holds everyone to it.\nYou’ll also have opportunities to contribute to other initiatives that directly advance our core values and support you in elevating your craft.\nHow You’ll Contribute\nIn this role, you will have the opportunity to\nOwn the end-to-end plan for assigned initiatives - scope, sequence, dependencies, milestones, and readiness criteria from commitment through release.\n\nBreak large, ambiguous initiatives into discrete workstreams with clear owners, and keep the group aligned as things shift.\n\nWork alongside Product Managers and Engineering Leads to track delivery against commitments, surface slippage early, and keep cross-team dependencies visible and resolved.\n\nFacilitate the sessions that move work forward - dependency reviews, cross-team planning, release readiness - and make sure they end in decisions.\n\nTranslate engineering blockers and technical trade-offs into clear, honest updates for Product leadership and commercial stakeholders.\n\nDrive go-to-market readiness with Product Marketing, Sales Enablement, Support, and Customer Success so enablement lands with the release, not after it.\n\nCoordinate internal and customer-facing release communications, including release notes.\n\nBuild the templates, checklists, and repeatable processes that make the next release easier than the last one - using AI tooling to cut the manual overhead.\n\nWhat Success Looks Like\nWithin 3 months: You've built working relationships across Product, Engineering, Marketing, and Support, and you own end-to-end coordination for two or more active initiatives - running the delivery cadence with the dev teams and producing status reporting people actually read.\n\nWithin 6 months: You're anticipating blockers rather than reporting them, and releases you coordinate go out with GTM readiness in place on day one.\n\nWithin 1 year: You run our most complex, multi-team initiatives with minimal oversight, and the delivery and launch process you've built is what the rest of the team uses by default.\n\nYour legacy: Panopto ships predictably, and every team knows what's coming and what they need to do about it - because you built the system that makes that true.\n\nValues in Action\nCustomer First, Always: You proactively surface friction points in the customer experience before they are escalated - and propose solutions, not just reports.\n\nThrive Together: You share work-in-progress for early feedback, knowing that challenge improves the outcome. You separate critiques of ideas from critiques of people.\n\nElevate the Craft: You hold the bar high on your own work and invest in developing those around you. You treat every project as an opportunity to learn something new.\n\nAct with Ownership: You define success by outcomes, not activity. You flag problems early and bring a proposed path forward, not just the problem.\n\nClarity Over Complexity: You default to the simpler solution. Your written communication - internal or external - is direct, specific, and free of filler.\n\nHow We Thrive\nYou'll join a team where we challenge ideas, not people. The Product organization exists to ideate, define, and deliver best-in-class products to our customers - assessing market trends, running competitive and customer research, and ruthlessly prioritizing the opportunities with the highest return. We hold ourselves accountable to outcomes, not activity.\nThe Foundation for Success\n6+ years of project or program management experience, with at least 4+ years specifically embedded within a B2B SaaS Product or R&D organization.\n\nBachelor's degree or equivalent work experience.\n\nDemonstrated experience running delivery with software engineering teams andcoordinating the go-to-market side of a product launch. This role does both.\n\nProven experience driving delivery for complex SaaS architectures (e.g., API integrations, multi-tenant cloud platforms, feature flags, continuous deployment release models).\n\nWorking understanding of the SaaS product lifecycle and agile delivery practices, with the judgment to adapt the process to the situation rather than apply it by the book.\n\nEnough technical fluency to hold a credible conversation with engineers about dependencies, trade-offs, and blockers - you don't need to write code, but you can't be a passenger in the discussion.\n\nProficiency with Jira and Confluence for planning, tracking, and documentation.\n\nStrong written and verbal communication, including the ability to push back constructively on scope creep.\n\nExperience working with distributed teams across multiple time zones.\n\nDemonstrated track record of designing, implementing, or improving cross-functional delivery and GTM release frameworks, rather than just executing within existing ones.\n\nWhat Sets You Apart\nExperience coordinating GTM launch activities with Product Marketing, Sales Enablement, or Customer Success.\n\nExperience presenting, reporting delivery health, and managing trade-offs directly with VP and C-level stakeholders.\n\nExperience sitting inside a Product or R&D organization rather than a central PMO.\n\nActive PMP, PMI-ACP, or CSM certification.\n\nHands-on experience leveraging modern PM stacks (Jira, Confluence) and AI productivity tools to streamline status reporting, documentation, and risk analysis.\n\nPrior experience in a Product Operations (ProdOps) function.\n\nFamiliarity with API-based products, feature flagging, or cloud service constraints.\n\nExperience in EdTech or with higher education or enterprise customers.\n\nPractical use of AI tooling to accelerate planning, synthesis, and reporting work.\n\nJoin Us\nJoin Panopto and play a key role in shaping the security foundation of a platform used by millions. If you love threat modeling, automating defenses, guiding engineering teams, and turning compliance standards into practical, scalable security practices, you’ll feel right at home here.\nTotal Rewards\nBase pay offered may vary depending on various factors, including, but not limited to: job-related knowledge, skills, experience, and other eligibility factors such as geographic location.
