About the team and the role:

Cloud Data Technologies (CDT) builds and operates on-premise, cloud-native data platforms and services that power eBay. The CDT PMO enables program governance, portfolio planning, and consistent delivery across product, platform, and shared services teams.

As a Lead Technical Program Manager, you will drive end-to-end delivery of complex, multi-quarter programs across the data ecosystem, from database platforms to governance and discovery. You will own program outcomes, align strategy to execution, and establish scalable delivery practices that improve reliability, quality, and efficiency. This role partners closely with Product, Engineering, and leadership, combining strategic oversight with hands-on execution.

What you will accomplish:

Lead large-scale, cross-functional programs from strategy through execution, delivering against defined scope, timelines, and business outcomes
Translate product and platform strategies into structured program plans with measurable impact (e.g., reliability, cost efficiency, security, data availability)
Drive coordinated execution across engineering and product teams by defining workstreams, managing dependencies, and maintaining delivery cadence
Improve program quality and reliability by establishing standards across testing, performance, data integrity, and compliance
Proactively identify and mitigate risks, enabling timely decisions through clear escalation and trade-off management
Provide clear, executive-level communication on program status, risks, and priorities, supporting alignment across stakeholders and leadership
Strengthen PMO practices by improving processes, tools, and governance, while mentoring team members and supporting effective program delivery

What you will bring:

Extensive experience in program management within cloud, data platforms, or enterprise software, including delivery of multi-team, multi-quarter initiatives
Strong technical understanding of cloud data technologies, including data platforms, pipelines, governance, and related systems
Ability to translate complex requirements into executable technical plans and guide decision-making with engineering and product stakeholders
Expertise in planning, estimation, dependency management, and risk mitigation within agile or hybrid delivery environments
Clear and effective communication skills, including executive-level reporting and stakeholder alignment
Familiarity with security, compliance, and data governance frameworks in cloud environments
Experience working across distributed teams or within structured portfolio and program governance environments is beneficial
