About the role
Space is a warfighting domain. True Anomaly seeks those with the talent and ambition to build the technology that secures it. OUR MISSION True Anomaly delivers decisive capabilities for space superiority. We build autonomous spacecraft, advanced payloads, mission software, and space-based interceptors — enabling the U.S. and its Allies to secure the space environment and counter threats from the ultimate high ground. OUR VALUES Be the offset. We create asymmetric advantages with creativity and ingenuity. What would it take? We challenge assumptions to deliver ambitious results. It’s the people. Our team is our competitive advantage and we are better together. YOUR MISSION We are seeking a Technical Program Manager (TPM) with a strong development background with a passion for building mission-critical systems to support space superiority. You will serve as the owner of program execution—driving clarity, alignment, predictability, and accountability across engineering, production, security and program office. In this role, you will ensure the successful delivery of complex, cutting edge, never before operated missile defense system, managing risk proactively, and leading programs through ambiguity. You will operate at the intersection of technical execution and program leadership, maintaining authority over delivery plans, escalation paths, and cross-functional dependencies.
RESPONSIBILITIES Lead the end-to-end planning, execution, and delivery of program sprints, for True Anomaly’s missile defense program. Own program execution: define delivery plans, manage scope and milestones, and drive accountability across engineering and cross-functional teams. Serve as the primary delivery interface with internal engineering and program office on the execution of the program, compiling metrics on program health and status Translate product
requirements into actionable technical plans in partnership with engineering, ensuring alignment with engineering architecture and mission needs. Participate in architectural discussions, highlighting risks, identifying gaps, and ensuring decisions support delivery timelines, security posture, and system reliability. Manage and resolve cross-team dependencies across engineering, production, security and program office; maintain a real-time dependency map for all initiatives. Track program performance using execution metrics (velocity, predictability, defect trends, release readiness) and drive continuous improvement. Proactively identify and manage risks, tradeoffs, and blockers; escalate and recommend decisions when schedule, scope, or resources misalign. Thrive in a high-ambiguity, fast-paced environment, creating structure, clarity, and alignment where needed.
