You will coordinate cross-functional teams, establish program cadences, track milestones and dependencies, manage risks and blockers, and ensure that delivery commitments remain visible and actionable.\nYou will also contribute to the development of quality assurance, ground-truth, evaluation, and release processes for data-intensive pipelines. This includes establishing human-in-the-loop sampling, measuring accuracy and precision/recall, managing annotation and adjudication workflows, and developing error taxonomies that turn recurring issues into measurable improvement opportunities.\nThe role combines program execution with operational and technical improvement. You will continuously identify opportunities to improve automation, efficiency, quality, and reliability while helping build scalable processes that can support future AI and enterprise data programs.\nRequirements\nKey Responsibilities\nDrive complex, multi-stage programs through kickoff, execution, quality assurance, release, and delivery.\nEstablish and maintain program plans, milestones, dependencies, owners, risks, and delivery timelines.\nRun recurring cross-functional meetings and maintain clear records of decisions, actions, owners, and deadlines.\nDesign and operate structured risk, blocker, and escalation frameworks with defined SLAs.\nMonitor program health and proactively identify risks that could affect timelines, quality, capacity, or delivery commitments.\nTrack team capacity against active and upcoming program requirements and identify potential resource constraints.\nCoordinate engineering, data, quality, operations, and stakeholder-facing teams across multiple workstreams.\nEstablish and improve operational processes, reporting mechanisms, dashboards, and program-management tooling.\nSupport QA loops for critical data pipelines using structured human-in-the-loop sampling and live-output assessment.\nDefine and track quality metrics including accuracy, precision, recall, completeness, consistency, and duplication rates.\nEstablish defensible ground-truth processes involving multi-annotator labelling, inter-annotator agreement, and adjudication.\nDevelop and maintain error taxonomies to identify recurring issues and drive systematic improvements.\nHelp define and enforce release gates and quality criteria for pipeline versions before production deployment.\nMonitor pipeline throughput, batching, versioning, quality, and delivery performance.\nIdentify opportunities for automation and process optimisation to improve scalability and operational efficiency.\nWork with technical teams to translate operational requirements into practical product, tooling, and workflow improvements.\nMaintain clear communication across technical teams, quality/operations teams, and account-facing stakeholders.\nEnsure delivery delays, red-line risks, unresolved blockers, and ambiguities are clearly surfaced and appropriately escalated.\nContinuously improve program processes to establish high standards for reliability, quality, and predictable delivery.\nWhat Makes You a Great Fit\n5+ years of experience in technical program management, engineering program management, delivery management, technical operations, or a closely related role.\nProven experience managing complex, multi-stage, cross-functional delivery programs against external deadlines, SLAs, or customer commitments.\nStrong understanding of technical delivery environments involving data pipelines, software systems, AI/ML workflows, or enterprise technology.\nWorking knowledge of data pipeline concepts including throughput, batching, versioning, data quality, completeness, consistency, and duplication.\nExperience building program-management processes and tooling from scratch rather than relying exclusively on mature frameworks.\nStrong ability to establish operating cadences, escalation mechanisms, capacity tracking, reporting, and delivery governance.\nExperience working with quality assurance, testing, evaluation, or human-in-the-loop workflows is highly valuable.\nUnderstanding of ground-truth creation, annotation, adjudication, evaluation metrics, or data-quality processes is an advantage.\nExcellent written and verbal communication skills with the ability to translate effectively between engineering, quality, operations, and business stakeholders.\nStrong analytical and problem-solving skills with excellent attention to detail.\nHigh degree of ownership with the ability to proactively identify risks, resolve ambiguity, and drive issues to closure.\nComfortable making practical decisions in situations where requirements, processes, and priorities are still evolving.\nStrong organisational and prioritisation skills with the ability to manage multiple workstreams simultaneously.\nProactive mindset with a focus on process improvement, automation, efficiency, quality, and operational reliability.\nComfortable working in an early-stage, high-growth environment where building scalable processes is part of the role.\nStrong interest in AI, enterprise data, technical operations, and reliable large-scale delivery systems.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5297,"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":"India","iso":"IN","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":[],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-28T19:00:59Z"}],"liveness":{"score":38,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":1,"p_active":0.379,"p_room":1,"age_days":1,"expected_fill_days":5,"reasons":["conf:0","agency","stale_co","velocity","win:early","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-09-30T05:45:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/weekday-technical-program-manager-2","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/weekday-technical-program-manager-2.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-01T01:16:23Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":875,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":4125,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-10-02T00:00:00Z"}}}
