About the role

As a Senior Program Manager on the Technology team, you’ll play a high-impact role leading some of Justworks’ most complex and strategically important cross-functional programs. You’ll work across multiple Product domains, Technology teams, and business functions to solve organizational problems where the desired outcome is important, the path forward isn’t fully defined, and success depends on creating alignment across teams with different priorities and incentives.

What they're looking for

  • 5+ years of program management, strategy, operations, product, consulting, or equivalent experience leading complex cross-functional work in a modern technology business
  • A strong commitment to problem-solving, with demonstrated ability to define and structure highly ambiguous problems rather than relying on a predefined solution or execution plan
  • Demonstrated experience building complex programs or operating models from the ground up and leading them through execution and measurable outcomes
  • Deep Product and Technology fluency, with experience partnering closely with Product and Engineering leaders and understanding how business strategy, Product strategy, roadmaps, prioritization, and delivery connect
  • Strong business acumen and the ability to connect program decisions and tradeoffs to broader customer, business, and organizational outcomes
  • Demonstrated ability to influence senior and executive stakeholders, navigate competing priorities, and drive consequential decisions across organizational boundaries without direct authority
