About Brahma AI
Brahma AI builds and scales industry-leading generative AI models—including hyper-realistic digital humans (ATMAN) and multilingual voice synthesis (VAANI)—at the intersection of enterprise Media Asset Management (MAM) and generative media for global clients in entertainment, sports, healthcare, and retail.
Role Overview
We are seeking a Technical Program Manager (TPM) to drive operational program leadership, delivery governance, and cross-functional visibility across all Brahma AI workstreams. Working alongside Product, Project, and Engineering Leads while partnering closely with the CTO and VP-level stream owners, your domain is program mechanics, operational capacity, dependency mapping, and executive risk visibility—focusing on cross-stream alignment rather than hands-on delivery, or daily sprint management. While our enterprise clients expect rigorous execution, our core AI capabilities and underlying architectures evolve at high-growth startup speed. You will establish the lightweight governance mechanisms and single source of truth needed to maintain momentum, manage resource trade-offs, and track company-wide milestone progress.
**Key Responsibilities
**1. Governance Architecture & Cross-Stream Visibility (50%)
- Governance Cadence: Design, establish, and run lightweight delivery governance forums (such as stream syncs, cross-functional alignment reviews, and executive steering touchpoints) to drive operational accountability.
- Dependency & Risk Tracking: Proactively map cross-stream dependencies, track commitments, and evaluate downstream operational impacts before technical or scheduling conflicts escalate.
- Single Source of Truth: Centralize real-time visibility over company-wide milestones, resource allocation, and capacity constraints.
- Strategic Delivery & Trade-Off Visibility (30%)
- Capacity & Roadmap Alignment: Synthesize internal product priorities against custom client commitments while maintaining real-time visibility into actual engineering capacity to identify resource constraints early.
- Trade-Off Surfacing: Present objective, data-backed trade-off scenarios and delivery feasibility assessments to VP stream owners and the CTO, enabling rapid, informed decision-making.
- Foundational Operations & Program Scaling (20%)
- Foundational Architecture: Define and establish lightweight, standardized program management workflows, tracking mechanisms, and communication protocols that lay the ground for a scalable program discipline as Brahma AI grows.
- Operational Process Improvement: Continuously refine cross-stream handoff protocols to eliminate friction between platform, AI foundation, and product delivery teams.
