A day in the life
A Day in the Life
Every day as a Technical Program Manager on the Technology Integration & Support team brings a dynamic mix of technical problem-solving vendor collaboration and cross-functional coordination. Heres what a typical day looks like:
You start your morning by reviewing your Asana and Taskei dashboards to check the status of 45 active vendor onboarding projects. You flag any blockers maybe a vendors network diagram needs revisions before it can be approved or a Third-Party Security (TPS) assessment is awaiting InfoSec feedback. You prioritize your day around what will keep these projects moving forward.
By mid-morning youre leading a technical kick-off call with a new AGV vendors engineering team. You walk them through Amazons IT requirements network standards security protocols IoT device certification and outline the onboarding documentation theyll need to complete. You answer their questions about VLAN configurations WiFi 802.11ax connectivity and mTLS requirements translating Amazons standards into actionable steps for the vendor.
After lunch you shift into hands-on technical work. You review a vendors submitted network diagram for compliance configure VLAN assignments and static IPs for an upcoming pilot site and generate PPSKs for wireless device connectivity. You coordinate with the local IT team on ACL port configurations and firewall rules that need to be deployed before the vendors equipment arrives on-site.
In the afternoon you join a weekly coordination meeting for a multi-site robotics rollout. You provide updates on the technology integration workstream review the Bill of Materials for the next site and align with general contractors on network rack installation timelines. After the meeting you draft a Vendor Technical Assessment report evaluating a new automation technologys integration risk network impact and deployment readiness.
Throughout the day youre the single-threaded owner connecting the dots between vendors site teams IT security legal and program leadership. You might field an escalation from a European site team about a connectivity issue submit an ANOW request for vendor network access or update leadership on the health of your vendor onboarding pipeline. No two days are exactly the same but every day centers on making sure the right technology gets integrated safely securely and on schedule.
