Full description
Overview
MontyCloud is building the future of AI-driven cloud management, and we are hiring a Staff Delivery Program Manager to own end-to-end delivery of complex, cross-functional programs, including the AI-powered capabilities that are core to our platform. You will plan and land multi-pod programs across Product, Engineering, SRE, QA, GTM and Customer Success, working with teams and partners across India and the US.
This is a hands-on, staff delivery role. We are looking for someone who brings structured program discipline to a fast-moving SaaS environment, uses data to drive decisions, and treats AI both as something we ship and as a way to run programs better.
Role summary
You will be the strategic delivery partner to Product, Engineering, SRE, GTM, Customer Success and Portfolio leadership. You will own delivery across two to four cross-functional agile teams (PODs), from quarterly/monthly planning through release, production stability and feature adoption.
The role spans three kinds of programs:
- Product and Platform delivery: roadmap features, multi-cloud capabilities (AWS, Azure, GCP), integrations and releases.
- AI-Driven Programs: AI and agentic features in the MontyCloud platform, from model evaluation and data readiness through launch, adoption and cost ROI.
- Engineering Health Programs: Tech debt management, release quality and production-issue reduction, made visible and prioritized with data alongside feature work.
Key responsibilitiesDelivery ownership and execution
- Own monthly/quarterly roadmap planning with Product; bring data on customer demand, CS business impact, Tech debt capacity. Handle trade-off between multiple prioritized features backed with data, not assumption.
- Own end-to-end delivery of product and engineering workstreams: milestones, risks, metrics and executive reporting.
- Drive Sprint intake from idea to backlog (Epics/Features) and enforce backlog hygiene: stories, acceptance criteria and estimates ready before the sprint starts.
- Manage cross-pod dependencies proactively, with dependency tickets raised on the receiving pod's board well before planning.
- Maintain a RAID log from the program charter onward, and partner with the Review Board so technical risks and mitigations are captured early.
- Handle urgent business asks (ELT, Large customers, GTM) by negotiating scope and sequencing between Product and Engineering without derailing committed work.
AI-driven programs
- Deliver AI and agentic capabilities in the MontyCloud platform end to end, from problem framing and model or approach evaluation through pilot, production and adoption.
- Run structured evaluation gates: pilot criteria, quality and accuracy benchmarks, and Go/No-Go decisions on which models or approaches move forward.
