Job Title:Sr. Program Manager, EPMO
Remote Work:Fully remote
Est. Start Date:ASAP
Duration:C2H or Perm (6 – 12 months)
Location:Remote (Would like to avoid high-cost areas such as the Bay Area)
Type: (Flex or Perm or CTH):C2H or Perm

Senior Program Manager / EPMO:
Top Priority Profile: Someone who has actually built, scaled, or led a PMO.
What the manager wants:
- Strong PMO leadership experience, not just project execution
- Experience establishing governance, methodologies, standards, reporting, and operating rhythms
- Ability to drive portfolio, program, and project management across the organization
- Strong resource planning, budgeting, prioritization, and executive reporting skills
- Experience with both Agile and Waterfall environments
- Comfortable managing scope, timelines, costs, risks, and change management initiatives
- Data center industry experience
- Experience creating PMO frameworks from the ground up
- Director-level PMO background
This is not a traditional Program Manager role. The hiring manager wants someone who can bring structure and maturity to the organization and help establish PMO best practices. A strong Director of PMO candidate may even justify creating a higher-level position. The emphasis is on PMO leadership and operational governance over industry-specific knowledge.
Qualifications
- 8+ years of program management experience leading large-scale technical and enterprise-wide programs within a technology or cloud infrastructure environment.
- Proven experience establishing or maintaining governance frameworks within an Enterprise Program Management Office (EPMO).
- Deep expertise across project management methodologies (e.g., Agile, Scrum, Waterfall) and PMO platforms (e.g., Jira, Smartsheet, Confluence).
- Demonstrated ability to drive alignment and hold cross-functional teams accountable across complex, distributed organizational structures.
- Exceptional leadership, structured problem-solving, and communication skills with extensive executive presentation experience.
- Relevant professional certifications (e.g., PgMP, PMP, CSM) are strongly preferred.
- Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
