This pioneering organization empowers its teams to tackle complex challenges and deliver impactful solutions that reach millions. As a Program Manager, you won't just manage tasks; you'll be a pivotal force, driving critical programs that directly influence strategic outcomes and elevate product quality. You'll be at the heart of innovation, orchestrating complex projects and ensuring seamless execution, making a tangible difference in how cutting-edge solutions are brought to life. Our client, a global technology leader, is seeking a high-energy, detail-oriented Program Manager to join the Android Security Team. This is a strictly operational role focused on the "nuts and bolts" of security execution, device launches, and platform integrity. You will be the engine of the team, managing high-volume bug queues and coordinating critical security ceremonies that enable product launches to move forward holistically. WHAT YOU'LL DO Queue & Bug Management: Monitor and manage various internal queues, including the "bug organizer," to triage and route technical issues to the correct engineering teams. Ceremony Coordination: Lead the logistics for "crypto ceremonies" and other high-stakes milestones essential for device launches. Compliance & Follow-up: Perform rigorous compliance follow-ups to ensure adherence to security policies and procedures across the organization. Tiger Team Leadership: Facilitate "Tiger Team" meetings, gathering updates, identifying workflow gaps, and proactively escalating roadblocks to leadership. Launch Support: Support New Product Introduction (NPI) processes, ensuring all operational checkpoints are met on tight timelines. MUST-HAVE QUALIFICATIONS Experience: 4-10 years of program management experience with a heavy emphasis on operational and administrative execution. Communication: Exceptional "over-communication" skills; you must be comfortable leading meetings with diverse stakeholders and speaking up to drive results. Tool Proficiency: Familiarity with large-scale internal ticketing or workflow systems (e.g., Google's Organizer, Taskflow, or similar proprietary tools). Operational Mindset: A proactive, "no task is too small" attitude; you thrive on high-volume, routine tasks and keeping moving pieces tracked and upkept. Location: Must be located in the PST time zone and able to work a hybrid schedule from the Kirkland/Seattle office. WHY JOIN THIS TEAM? You will be integral to a small, fast-paced team where your work directly enables critical security initiatives to come to life. While the tasks are routine, the impact is global, protecting the security and privacy of millions of users. - About Aquent Talent: Aquent Talent connects the best talent in marketing, creative, and design with the world's biggest brands.
