THE ROLE

The Director of PBG Programs will serve as a strategic partner to the Vice President of Product Operations, driving leadership effectiveness and program execution across the Product Business Unit Group. This role plays a critical part in shaping how Pure's leadership team aligns and how its most important engineering programs get delivered - designing the forums where strategy is set and directing the cross-organizational initiatives where it becomes reality. The ideal candidate is a proactive strategic operator who identifies problems and brings solutions without being asked, and carries the technical depth to earn the respect of the R&D community.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Lead and manage R&D programs with high impact to the business, including complex initiatives that cross organizational boundaries.
• Design, facilitate, and manage leadership strategy sessions, offsites, and workshops - owning agendas, framing the critical questions, synthesizing outcomes, and driving follow-through on decisions.
• Align priorities, dependencies, and stakeholders across Product, Engineering, and adjacent business units to land program outcomes on time.
• Proactively identify emerging problems, risks, and opportunities - framing options and driving solutions without being asked.
• Partner with leadership and HR on programs that grow leadership capability, strengthen team health, and improve how the organization communicates, decides, and executes.
• Establish program frameworks, metrics, and communication cadences that give leadership real-time visibility into program health.
• Champion a culture of accountability, transparency, and continuous improvem
• We are primarily an in-office environment and therefore, you will be expected to work from the Santa Clara office in compliance with Everpure's policies, unless you are on PTO, or work travel, or other approved leave.

WHAT YOU BRING

• 10+ years of experience in program management, engineering operations, or strategy roles within a technology or product-driven organization.
• Proven track record of directing complex, cross-organizational programs with high business impact in fast-paced environments.
• A strategic, proactive mindset - demonstrated ability to independently identify problems, develop solutions, and drive them to resolution without waiting for direction.
• Technical enough to garner respect from the R&D community; familiarity with AI/ML and CI/CD would be a plus.
• Experience designing and running leadership strategy sessions, workshops, and executive forums.
• Proven conflict management skills and history of building 'win-win' partnerships.
• Must possess the executive presence, credibility and tenacity to successfully influence, build and maintain strong relationships with a diverse set of internal partners.
• Highly-driven personality and the ability to drive consensus and alignment.
• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field required.
• MBA or equivalent advanced degree strongly preferred.
