About the Role
We're looking for a senior, deeply technical TPM to own delivery of Replit's highest-stakes, most complex programs—starting with our evergreen Agent roadmaps. This is an IC role for someone who has previously been an engineering manager or senior engineer, can operate comfortably in AI/LLM-heavy systems, and brings order, momentum, and sharp decision-making to cross-team ambiguity. The ideal candidate uses AI and automation aggressively to scale themselves, but understands that the core value is clarity, tradeoffs, and execution, not just tooling.
You Will
- Own end-to-end delivery of Replit's most complex, cross-functional programs, with Agent development as the primary, evergreen focus
- Drive execution across Product, Eng, Research, GTM, and Leadership—surfacing dependencies, risks, and disagreements early
- Operate as the technical glue between teams: able to follow architecture decisions, challenge assumptions, and translate tradeoffs without slowing velocity
- Establish and run program operating cadence (milestones, reviews, decision logs, retros) for long-running bets
- Use AI, automation, and agent workflows to scale program management (status synthesis, risk detection, incident follow-ups, guardrails, retros)
- Take on additional high-stakes programs as needed (e.g. Enterprise initiatives, external integrations, priority conflicts)
- Partner closely with EMs and PMs without duplicating their roles—this role exists where ownership is otherwise fragmented
Required skills and experience
- 8+ years of TPM experience (or equivalent) with a track record of leading complex, high-impact programs
- Deep technical fluency in systems like distributed architecture, infrastructure, platform engineering, or AI/ML
- Clear, direct communication style with strong decision-making skills
- Thrives in ambiguity and can drive progress independently—this is a high-impact IC role, not the foundation of a TPM organization
Preferred Qualifications
- Background as an engineering manager or senior engineer
- Experience leveraging AI tools, agents, or automation to increase execution velocity—we'd love to hear specific examples
- Values clarity and momentum over process for process's sake
Bonus Points
- You've led programs for AI/ML or agent-based systems
- You've brought structure and accountability to cross-functional initiatives in fast-paced environments
- You have a portfolio of ways you've used automation or tooling to scale your impact as a program manager
