Technical Program Manager

A typical day as a Cogniter will contain the following tasks & responsibilities

• Breaking down the requirements with the Product Manager and Tech Lead, turning them into execution pieces and finding the right sequence
• Managing schedule, timelines, and milestones (i.e. Alpha, Beta, and GA)
• Driving the tradeoffs between usability, Go To Market (GTM) lead time, features scope, technical debt/investment (i.e. across UX/PM/Tech/GTM) to maximize value for our customers and Cognite
• Drive end-to-end alignment from sales to delivery, security, and support
• Managing internal and external dependencies arising from end-to-end alignment
• Managing budgeting and resource needs
• Managing in-market product performance in scope of the program (e.g. usage metrics, cost drivers, required delivery effort, as well as quality, reliability, security etc.), ensuring those metrics are measured, reported, reviewed and acted upon
