Technical Program Manager

organization spans ~60 people across engineering and applied science, and is in the middle of a significant platform re-architecture toward a commerce-first, ML-driven model including a modernized feature store and lakehouse layer, and a growing applied science presence across multiple geographies focused on commerce advertising. This role sits within In Mobiʼs central TPM organization (which reports to the Group CTO) and works in close, day-to-day partnership with the Head of Technology for DSP and their leadership team (Director of Engineering, Director of Applied Science, Principal Scientist). What youʼll own. End-to-end program management across DSPʼs full portfolio, spanning platform/infra re-architecture, applied science/ML initiatives, and customer/commerce-facing feature launches. Youʼre the connective tissue across all three, not siloed into one. Cross geo co-ordination across Bangalore, Beijing, and Lucknow, as the applied science and engineering org scales, aligning roadmaps, resolving dependencies, and keeping distributed teams working off a shared plan despite time zone and org-distance challenges. Translating strategy into execution, partnering with DSPʼs engineering and applied science leadership to break down large initiatives (e.g., feature store migration, new bidding/commerce capabilities) into sequenced, resourced, trackable plans. Program governance, roadmaps, dependency maps, RAID logs, milestone tracking, and operating cadences (planning cycles, status reviews, exec updates) suited to a real-time, high-QPS distributed systems environment. Risk identification and mitigation across technically complex, cross-team efforts surfacing conflicts early, before they hit sub-50ms latency SLAs or launch timelines. Representing DSP programs upward and outward, reporting into the central TPM org and Group CTO leadership, while remaining deeply embedded in DSPʼs day-to-day technical context. Stakeholder alignment across engineering, applied science, and adjacent partner teams (data platform, commerce/monetization, infra). Who you are. 3-6 years of technical program management experience, ideally within ad-tech, real-time bidding, or large-scale distributed/low-latency systems. Proven experience running programs that span both software engineering and applied science/ML teams, comfortable with the different cadences and artifacts each discipline needs. Working technical fluency with distributed systems concepts (g RPC, streaming/Kafka, Kubernetes/GKE, service mesh), enough to engage credibly with senior engineers and scientists, not just track Jira tickets. Working understanding of the applied science/ML project lifecycle, experimentation design, offline vs. online metrics, feature engineering, model evaluation, and rollout/A-B testing, sufficient to plan, sequence, and de-risk applied science programs rather than treat them as black boxes. Experience coordinating across geographies and time zones (India-China or similar), including navigating cultural and organizational distance across multiple sites. Strong executive communication and stakeholder management skills, able to operate comfortably with Group CTO-level stakeholders as well as ICs. A track record of building lightweight but effective program operating rhythms in fastmoving, technically deep orgs, not heavyweight process for its own sake.
