Censis Technologies is seeking an experienced Program Manager to orchestrate our new product initiatives from development through this role youll be the connective tissue across engineering product and go-to-market teams ensuring our most critical programs deliver impact on time and with excellence.
What Youll Do
Youll own end-to-end program execution for major product initiatives. This means driving clarity on timelines identifying and managing cross-team dependencies and ensuring every team has what they need to succeed.

What Were Looking For
You have a track record of successfully delivering complex programs across multiple stakeholders. Youre comfortable operating in ambiguity and bringing structure allowing all participants to thrive. You know how to ask the right questions to surface dependencies before they become blockers and you have the technical fluency to understand engineering trade-offs and impact without needing to write the code yourself.
Youre an effective communicator who can translate between technical and non-technical audiences. You know when to escalate and when to solve problems directly. Youre metrics-driven and motivated by achieving results. Most importantly you enable teams rather than dictating to them.
