Toast is looking for a seasoned Principal Technical Program Manager (TPM) to drive and enhance the efficiency, execution, and cross-functional alignment of complex R&D initiatives.

  • Stakeholder Partnership: Cultivate strong relationships with stakeholders across R&D, Product, and Engineering, collaborating on roadmap planning and resource allocation to ensure strategic alignment and operational efficiency.
  • Mentorship and Team Development: Serve as a mentor to other TPMs, promoting best practices, knowledge-sharing, and skill development. Act as a trusted advisor and resource within the TPM organization, supporting team members in achieving their full potential.
  • Technical Leadership and Guidance: Leverage your technical fluency to guide teams, establishing best practices and fostering continuous improvement. Encourage innovation within program teams by setting technical fluency standards and facilitating professional growth.

Do you have the right ingredients*? (Requirements)

  • 10+ years of experience in technical program management, product management, AND technical leadership roles, with a proven record of managing and delivering complex cross-functional programs in a tech-driven environment.

  • Strong background in the software development lifecycle (SDLC) and deep technical fluency.
  • Demonstrated ability to build strategic frameworks and standardize processes for high-impact delivery across multiple programs.
  • Exceptional communication, interpersonal, and stakeholder management skills, with a history of effectively collaborating with technical and non-technical partners.
  • Results-oriented with a strategic mindset; proven ability to drive multiple programs to successful completion with a sense of urgency.
