Technical Program Manager - AI & Data Systems

About the Role

Abnormal AI is hiring a Technical Program Manager to lead delivery of high-impact programs across our AI Platform and Data Systems teams. You'll own strategic initiatives from CIO leadership — spanning AI governance, the data foundation for AI agents, AI outcomes analytics, and new agent and platform rollouts — and turn them into structured, well-tracked programs. You'll define processes where none exists, drive valuable outcomes, and keep executive stakeholders aligned and ahead of surprises. This role sits at the intersection of engineering execution and leadership visibility, requiring someone who thrives in ambiguity, earns credibility through follow-through, and instinctively reaches for AI to solve real delivery challenges.

Who you are

• An experienced Program Manager who takes initiative where the goal is set but the path isn't — and builds the structure around it: milestones, owners, risks, and a clear route to delivery.

• Energized by high-stakes, high-visibility work — you want your programs to matter, and you hold yourself accountable when they don't.

• Action-biased and momentum-driven — you don't wait for perfect clarity to begin building structure or driving toward an outcome.

• Equally comfortable in a room with a C-level executive and in the weeds with an engineering team lead — you adjust your communication without losing precision.

• A proactive problem-solver who surfaces blockers and risks before they become escalations.

• Experienced leading projects and programs in highly technical environments — you extract delivery signal from engineering deep-dives, connect technical decisions to program risk, and push back on sequencing when it matters.

• Disciplined about visibility: stakeholders always know where things stand, and surprises don't happen on your programs.

• A trusted partner who earns credibility through follow-through — you build relationships
