Senior Technical Program Manager

MNTN

The hardest working software in television.

Full TimeRemoteTeam 201-500H1B No Sponsor

Role Description We're looking for a Technical Program Manager to join MNTN's Advertiser UI organization, reporting to the Director of Advertiser UI. This is a role for someone who is strongly data-driven, cares deeply about the quality of product experiences, and understands that great UI is a business driver, not a finishing touch. You will own the program surface covering advertiser creation, authentication, and the campaign setup and management flow, two of the most consequential areas of MNTN's self-serve platform. This role will interact closely with our backend-focused teams and our reporting suite, requiring significant collaboration and communication between all. These are high-traffic, revenue-critical flows that directly shape advertiser activation, retention, and day-to-day platform engagement. The work is technical in character. Authentication spans identity, session management, and access control. Campaign setup and management touches bidding inputs, audience targeting, creative, and reporting surfaces. You'll need to understand how these systems work under the hood, ask the right questions of engineers, and translate complex tradeoffs into clear product decisions. This is not a coordination role. It is an ownership role. You'll operate within a single cross-functional squad, working day-to-day with engineering managers across MNTN's UI teams. You'll partner closely with product, design, and stakeholders across the organization to maintain a roadmap that is sequenced well, clearly communicated, and consistently delivered. What You'll Do - Own the authentication experience end-to-end: drive roadmap decisions across login, session management, access control, and identity flows, with a clear point of view on what needs to improve and why. - Own the campaign setup and management flow: define prioritization and sequencing across the full lifecycle of campaign creation, editing, and management, ensuring the experience reduces friction and drives advertiser confidence. - Translate product strategy into executable plans: work with your manager and cross-functional partners to turn high-level direction into a well-sequenced, well-understood roadmap your squad can execute against. - Drive delivery within your squad: manage sprint rhythms, surface blockers early, and maintain the health of execution alongside your engineering leads. - Identify and champion high-value UI opportunities: bring your own point of view to the product. You're not just executing requests. You're expected to identify and advocate for changes that move the business. - Maintain stakeholder alignment across the org: own communication of roadmap status, tradeoffs, and decisions to partners in product, design, data, and leadership so there are no surprises. - Use data to inform prioritization: leverage engagement metrics, retention signals, and advertiser feedback to make the case for what gets built and in what order. - Partner closely with engineering on technical sequencing: understand architectural constraints well enough to identify potential cross-team dependencies, make sound tradeoff decisions, and push back when a proposed approach creates downstream risk. What Success Looks Like - Advertiser retention trends up, with the campaign setup and management flow identified as a contributing factor. - Authentication is reliable, low-friction, and not a source of advertiser complaints or engineering incident volume. - Your squad operates with high execution hygiene: clear priorities, predictable delivery, and minimal re-work. - Stakeholders across product, design, and engineering consistently describe you as aligned, reliable, and easy to work with. - You have a sustained track record of shipping high-impact UI features that stakeholders across the org point to as meaningful product advancements. - The roadmap you own is understood and trusted across the org, with few surprises about what's coming and why. Qualifications - 3+ years of experience in technical program management or a closely related discipline, with direct ownership of consumer-facing or self-serve product surfaces. - Hands-on experience managing programs across authentication, identity, or user account flows, with enough technical depth to engage credibly with engineers on tradeoffs. - Demonstrated fluency in front-end product delivery, including campaign management UIs, multi-step setup flows, or similarly complex interaction surfaces. - Technical literacy sufficient to read engineering designs, understand API and session architecture, and identify risk in proposed implementation approaches. - Experience working within a focused cross-functional squad, including managing relationships with engineering leads and maintaining sprint-level execution quality. - A track record of using engagement and retention data to inform roadmap decisions, not just report on outcomes. - Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to synthesize complex tradeoffs into clear recommendations for stakeholders at multiple levels. - An instinct for product quality. You have opinions about what makes a great UI experience and the credibility to advocate for them. - Adtech experience is a plus, but not a requirement. Benefits - 100% remote within the US - Flexible vacation policy - Annual vacation allowance for travel related expenses - Three-day weekend every month of the year - Competitive compensation - 100% healthcare coverage - 401k plan - Flexible Spending Account (FSA) for dependent, medical, and dental care - Access to coaching, therapy, and professional development
