About the role
The Role
At Candid Health, we’re searching for a Platform Technical Program Manager (TPM) to work directly with engineering and product leadership to design, implement, and scale the operational frameworks that keep our teams moving fast. As a key strategic investment for our platform, you will tackle highly visible initiatives, turning complex, multi-team dependencies into clear, predictable execution roadmaps. Your mission is to maximize engineering velocity and stability, ensuring our infrastructure effortlessly scales alongside our business.
This is an opportunity to get in at the ground floor of designing a world-class operational engine alongside top-tier talent in a highly collaborative, data-informed environment.
What You’ll Do
- Drive Cross-Functional Alignment: Partner closely with Platform Engineering, Product Management, and Delivery leaders to translate long-term product strategy and technical architecture into actionable, shared roadmaps.
- Orchestrate Complex Technical Launches: Lead the end-to-end planning and risk management for critical platform initiatives—such as major cloud migrations, framework upgrades, or API changes—ensuring seamless rollouts with zero operational disruption.
- Bridge Internal Systems & External Interfaces: Bring order to chaos by aligning internal metric tracking (OKRs, KPIs) with external platform touchpoints, smoothly coordinating how we roll out infrastructure changes to both internal teams and external customer IT partners.
- Standardize Delivery Frameworks: Establish lightweight, highly effective operational processes across the department. Optimize project management tools (e.g., Jira, Linear), eliminate structural bottlenecks, and create clear visibility into project health for stakeholders.
